Nektar Panorama CS12 Channel Strip DAW Controller

Nektar Panorama CS12 Channel Strip Controller is a unique controller offering complete control over all Logic Pro channel strip parameters, including plugins, setting it apart from other controllers. This innovative device is far from ordinary, as its entire workflow is custom-designed to introduce remarkable features not seen before on a control surface.

High-Resolution Fader with Touch Sensing
The 100mm ALPS motorized fader seamlessly follows the selected mixer channel, providing detailed control with up to 14-bit resolution and touch sensing for real-time automation override and updates.

Dedicated Controls
Alongside the fader, there are dedicated pan controls, as well as buttons for solo, mute, and record arm, offering instant access to all primary mixer parameters on the selected channel.

Effortless Parameter Control
By simply clicking on a parameter, the 100mm ALPS fader instantly adjusts to the clicked position, allowing you to take control. The fader or pan rotary can manage any parameter in the currently selected Logic Pro channel at any given time.

Clean Automation
Panorama CS12 simplifies automation recording by enabling the insertion of automation points with ease, providing a clean and efficient process.

Complete Plugin Control
The device excels in controlling plugins, with pre-mapped commonly used plugins and the ability to control any plugin without the need to view the plugin's UI, ensuring a seamless editing experience.

Plugin Slot Selection
CS12 uniquely controls insert plugins with 8 plugin slot select buttons, allowing immediate control over the selected plugin.

Plugin Parameter Learn
A quick learn feature facilitates on-the-fly assignments by simply moving a parameter and matching a control, with the added option to customize LED colors.

Nektarine Map Creation
For comprehensive control mapping, the Nektarine application/plugin lets users assign parameters to controls through drag-and-drop, creating optimized page structures for the CS12, ensuring a tailored experience.
