The Complete Control Experience for Cubase, Logic Pro, Nuendo, Studio Pro and ReaperPanorama CS12 delivers a unique workflow never experienced before with a MIDI controller.The channel strip DAW controller communicates directly with the DAW to operate every aspect including its own instruments and effects. Add 3rd party plugin control, colour and parameter learn and you have a crazy amount of hands-on sound shaping options. Panorama CS12 is designed to work with Nektar DAW integration for Apple’s Logic Pro and Steinberg’s Cubase & Nuendo, plus Fender’s Studio Pro and Reaper. When used with a compatible DAW, Panorama CS12 gives hands-on control of the DAWs mixer, plugins, timeline navigation and more. Highlights: Long-throw 100mm motorised fader .Endless (360°) potentiometer with RGB illumination.6-segment LED meter for real-time display of channel volume.Dedicated buttons for channel Arm, Mute, Solo and Select parameter control.Colour TFT display used for plugin list display and control assignments.3 display encoders.

With up to 14-bit resolution, you get detailed control with touch sensing enabling automation override and update captures in real time. Paired with a dedicated pan control, as well as buttons for solo, mute and record arm, you have instant access to all main mixer parameters on the selected channel. Complete Insert FX Plugin Control Panorama CS12 excels at controlling plugins. You can control any plugin without looking at the plugins’ UI so you can focus on creating, composing and editing. Many commonly used plugins are pre-mapped including, of course, Logic Pro, Cubase, Studio Pro or Reaper’s own. Panorama CS12 dedicates 12 RGB illuminated 360 pots, 4 display buttons and an additional 4 RGB LED buttons to plugin control. Every control can be assigned on multiple pages ensuring as a complete plugin experience, with no parameter left behind. Via the ControlCore mapping system, it stores all settings in unique files so they can be ported to other computer systems and ensure compatibility with other DAWs in the future. Control Any Parameter NOW Control any parameter by simply clicking on it. The 100mm ALPS fader immediately jumps to the clicked parameters position and you take over from there. The fader or pan rotary, can be used to control any parameter in the currently selected channel, at any time. Activate the Select button and the motorised fader now controls any parameter you click. Any mixer channel, instrument or insert effect plugin parameters. Click, control, click control. Super easy. Customising Plugin Mapping Plugin Parameter Learn A plugin ‘quick learn’ feature enables assignments on the fly. It’s as simple as moving a parameter and moving a control to complete assignment. And while you are at it, change the LED colour of the control, too. Nektarine Map Creation For the ultimate in control mapping, use the included Nektarine application/plugin. Assign parameters to controls using drag and drop, create your page structure and name parameters and pages so they are optimised for CS12. Once saved, plugin maps are picked up by ControlCore for use with CS12. PRECISION CONTROL AT 10X RESOLUTION14-bit control resolution is not limited to the motorised fader. With the Fine button (magnifier icon) enabled, each of the 12 pots control at 14-bit resolution. In practice this means you’ll be able to adjust parameters with the same fine grained values available through your plugin’s UI or up to 10 x regular control resolution. So why not keep Fine on at all times? That’s, of course, possible and maybe it’s even preferable for some users. When you control at 10 times the resolution it’s not possible to scroll through all values in one rotation, you need 9 or 10 rotations – in that case switch ‘Fine’ control off. Set the Loop, Move the LoopSet left and right locators to just the right loop. With complete freedom, move the loop across the timeline by turning an encoder. Use the dedicated Goto Left and Goto Right locator to jump straight to the loop point. Create markers and with a button press, move the play head to the marker position anytime. You don’t have to learn Panorama CS12’s power features to appreciate its liberating workflow. It’s the many details like the ability to move through your timeline, that makes Panorama CS12 special.
