Full Description
View Full DescriptionThis analog mixer delivers a big, studio sound. Control 2802 demonstrates extraordinarily versatile routing capability, with cues and auxes available to provide up to 32 mix inputs and a DAW-integrated two-part in-line-style channel. Ethernet-connected HUI control layer allows DAW operation right from the console.
Analog Recording Console
The Focusrite Control 2802 includes capabilities you would expect to find on much larger consoles. Eight, Class A mic preamps deliver clear, transparent performance with a powerful summing mixer handling up to 32 simultaneous inputs with ultra low distortion, excellent dynamic range and a super wide frequency response.
There's a punchy master bus compressor featuring parallel compression for versatile control of dynamics for your stereo mix - or any other pair of channels. High-end analogue design characterises the 2802 - implemented with similarly uncompromised components and build quality throughout.
Ethernet Control Surface
The Control 2802 can control several major DAWs with Dual Layer Control Technology letting you flip from analog fader layer to DAW layer in an instant. Access and control DAW faders, auxes, plug-ins, automation, project navigation and more.
Automation
The Focusrite Control 2802's motorised 100mm analog and DAW control faders can both be fully automated. Easily adjust DAW channel auxes, inserts and groups within Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase and Nuendo via a HUI interface. Four multi-function encoders give you precise control while OLED screens provide detailed information on mix elements. Combined with dedicated transport controls, that means more time getting your sound just right, and less time staring at a screen.
Included Plug-Ins
In the box you will find the Focusrite Midnight plug-in suite. Modelled on original Focusrite hardware designs, these plug-ins allow you to add compression and EQ, helping you take your mix to the next level. The plug-ins can be controlled and assigned to channels from the comfort and convenience of the Control 2802, so there's no need to grab the mouse!
