What We Think

With Artist Control, you gain deep, integrated control over your favorite creative applications, such as Pro Tools, Media Composer, Logic, Nuendo, Cubase, Maestro, and more. EUCON carries high-resolution control information for faders, knobs, displays, and more between Artist Control and whatever application is in focus on your computer. This enables you to quickly switch between multiple applications—and even workstations—at the touch of a button, with all controls and displays automatically matching the selected application.

Take control with the touchscreen

With the touchscreen interface, you get comprehensive visibility and quick control over your project. Not only can you view top-level information such as track names/numbers, metering (from mono to 5.1 surround data), fader/pan values, and automation modes, but you can also quickly access all of your plug-in and EQ parameters, trigger macro commands, perform surround panning, and much more. The high-resolution, LED-backlit display offers a wide viewing angle, bright graphics, and excellent color consistency...

Quickly and easily navigate projects

With its ergonomic layout, Artist Control puts the data entry wheel and transport controls right at your fingertips for easy navigation

You can also assign functions to the data wheel—such as horizontal or vertical zoom, jog, shuttle, and more—for custom control. And use the Soft Keys to assign additional custom data wheel and transport functions for even greater flexibility in editing and navigating your project.

Mix with precision

Get accurate and smooth mixing control through four high-quality, motorized, touch-sensitive, 100mm long throw faders. Easily select tracks for editing just by touching the corresponding fader.

Use dedicated keys to bank tracks (four at a time) or nudge tracks (one at a time) to quickly navigate through projects. You can even lock individual tracks to faders and store them as Layouts (up to 48 per project). Layouts are saved with your project for easy recall, making mixing large projects a breeze. Save multiple Layouts to mix drums, keyboards,guitars, and so on, or just lock a fader to act as a master fader.

Customize your control surface

Because Artist Series controllers are modular, you can combine them in a variety of configurations to suit your workflow. Customize your Artist Series system with up to one Artist Control, four Artist Mixes, one Artist Transport, and one Artist Color for total flexibility—up to 36 faders total. Simply clip the units together to form a seamless surface—or use them separately—as each has its own Ethernet connection.

Manufacturer's Description from Avid

Artist Control brings the unparalleled speed, resolution and DAW integration of Avid's high-end pro consoles to the personal studio in a revolutionary ergonomic, slim-line design. Artist Control fits perfectly between keyboard and screen, and can be connected to additional Artist Mix units to create a larger mixing control surface

Artist Control is loaded with power features to speed up and enhance your creativity with any media application.

Effortlessly switch between multiple applications and workstations at the touch of a button.

The Artist Control's high-resolution touch-screen interface, motorized faders and arsenal of rotary encoders, soft keys and transport controls instantly snap to the selected application to put multi-format metering, plug-in parameters, track information and much more at your fingertips.

Most importantly, software developers like Apple, Steinberg, MOTU and others have worked closely to integrate native support for Avid's EuCon control protocol into their DAWs to deliver an unmatched editing and mixing experience.

EuCon is a high speed Ethernet control protocol developed by Euphonix that allows the Artist Mix to connect to any Mac OS X application. EuCon carries control information for faders, knobs, displays and more between the Artist Mix and whatever application is in focus on your computer.

EuCon is MIDI on steroids and is the next generation control protocol for working with music and video applications.

The EuControl application manages the Artist Mix's connection to the Mac, and the Artist Client application connects the EuCon control data to all the applications. The Artist Mix can connect to any application, but for fader and knob control, the application must be able to support either EuCon, HUI, or Mackie Control protocol.

DAWs and Video Edit applications which include EuCon, HUI or Mackie Control protocol include:

* Logic Pro
* Final Cut Pro
* Soundtrack Pro
* Cubase
* Nuendo
* Digital Performer
* Pro Tools
* Reason
* Live
* and more...
