Essential Information About the Avid Pro Tools | S1 Control Surface
- Compact and Powerful EUCON Control: 8 touch-sensitive motorized faders, 8 push-encoders, and high-resolution OLED screens to precisely manage your mixes.
- Deep Integration with Pro Tools and compatibility with major EUCON DAWs such as Logic Pro, Cubase, etc., for a seamless workflow across applications.
- Detailed Visual Feedback: 10-segment meters, parameter display, automation mode, and levels from mono to 5.1, directly on the surface.
- Expandable: Chain up to 4 S1 units and add a Pro Tools Dock to create a surface with up to 32 faders including a master section.
The Expertise of the S6 Consoles in a Mobile Format
Inspired by the ergonomics of the Pro Tools | S6 range, the S1 concentrates the essential high-end mixing functions in a compact chassis, designed for small studios and mobile setups. At the heart of the Avid ecosystem, it naturally integrates with the Avid MediaCentral platform and adapts to existing workflows without increasing budget or infrastructure requirements.
Designed for Agile Engineers, Editors, and Mixers
Whether you work in music, post-production, or broadcast, the S1 speeds up recording, editing, and mixing with immediate physical controls and clear visual feedback. Its small footprint makes it ideal for compact control rooms, editing suites, personal studios, or mobile projects, while remaining robust enough for ambitious sessions.
EUCON Control, Precise Displays, and Customizable Workflow
EUCON interaction offers both fast and granular control of tracks, plugins, pans, and automation. The 8 OLED displays show track names, parameter values, and automation states, while the 10-segment meters provide instant level readings from mono to 5.1 surround. Create custom channel layouts for recurring tasks, recall them with a single gesture, and switch seamlessly between EUCON-compatible applications. The tablet slot accommodates your touchscreen with the free "Pro Tools Control" app for an overview of channels, inserts, and sends, just like on a large console.
