Now you can use your mouse for what it's good at and use a control surface for what it's good at: hands-on mixing with lots of real faders, knobs, and buttons. The US-2400 is the first DAW fader controller with enough faders to handle a typical recording session... and feel like a real mixing console... without lots of bank switching. The US-2400 features 24 touch-sensitive moving channel faders and a touch-sensitive motorized master fader, each with 10-bit resolution for precise level control. Each channel has dedicated select, solo, and mute controls. 24 rotary encoders are provided, selectable to control pan or up to 8 aux sends. Plus, all 24 encoders can also be used as one large channel strip for 4-band EQ, aux and pan control. Each encoder has a ring of LEDs that can display the current setting or double as channel meters during recording and playback. A set of solid-feeling transport buttons is also provided, as well as a shuttle wheel and a joystick for surround panning. Compare it to any other controller on the market today (and the extra expanders you'd have to buy to get 24 motorized faders) and you'll discover that the US-2400 gives you more control for the money.
