At the 2014 NAMM Show, Livid Instruments & Dubspot introduced the DS1 MIDI mixing controller.
The DS1 MIDI Mixer is a portable solution for computer-based mixing, production and performance. The collaboration grew out of Dubspot’s need for a single controller that they could use in classrooms for teaching mixing, production, sound design and DJing.
“We could never find a single complementary controller on the market to meet our functionality and durability needs,” explains Dubspot CEO Dan Giove, ”so we decided to simply build one ourselves.”
Features:
- 9 high-quality, 60mm faders.
- 44 rotary knobs with single-color backlighting.
- 1 push encoder.
- 25 RGB buttons.
- Class-compliant MIDI USB.
- Expression Pedal Input (compatible with the Livid Master Fader).
- Ultra light and heavy-duty aluminum construction.
