DirectOut HCONTROL.8 - 8-Fader Control Surface for PRODIGY Series

HCONTROL.8 is a remote controller with eight bays that is designed around the PRODIGY Series. It brings all the flexibility of 'globcon controller' to a hardware front-end with comfortable feel. Use it for mixing and monitoring along with the multifunction processor PRODIGY.MP or the modular converter PRODIGY.MC - a mobile and easy to transport solution. Or combine the control of several DirectOut devices on a single hardware front-end.

Mapping
Free mapping of any audio channels and device functions. Assign FlexChannels, Groups, and Matrix Mixers to 12 layers and recall them easily via buttons (blue). Link customized display layouts of globcon to individual layers. 12 function buttons (pink) are assigned freely to execute device functions such as snapshot recalls or GPIO trigger on the device.

FlexFaders
The 100 mm motorised faders allow HCONTROL.8 to receive data from PRODIGY.MP displaying fader status and level meter information in a tailored and fully integrated way. Their behaviour adapts on the type of channel which is assigned to them. For example, when MatMix masters are assigned to the faders, the SPILL function is available. Using the SPILL button all sources of the master become accessible for immediate level mixing while the rotary encoders are used for panning within the stereo master.

Applications
Applications vary between fixed installations, where one PRODIGY.MP is controlled by several HCONTROL.8 throughout a conference set-up, and remote productions, where several PRODIGY.MP in different locations are remotely controlled by only one HCONTROL.8.
