The VDB FCS-8 8-Channel Control Surface is a compact USB controller suitable for the most demanding shoots, thanks to its robust design in aluminum and PA-12 nylon. It features 8 rotary potentiometers for trims, 8 dust-protected faders and 8 PFL controls for controlling 8 channels of the recorder.
VERSIONS (specify the preferred Fader Version when ordering):
- Surface 8 - SOFT FADER Version: Flexible fader that favors responsiveness and speed;
- Surface 8 - FIRM FADER Version: Fader with resistance for precise control
It also features controls for record, stop, Slate mic trigger, and a shortcut to arm or disarm tracks. PFL monitoring, track arm/disarm status, recording, and Slate mic activation are indicated by LEDs on the front of the control surface.
The control surface provides the user with a potentiometer corresponding to the Master fader, which can be assigned to any bus or output of the recorder. In addition, it has four assignable controls, from a list of recorder functions, such as activating Com circuits, monitoring, or assigning faders to buses or outputs.
Its 8 channels make it particularly suitable for use with the Sound Devices 833 recorder, for use in a bag or for filming where the lightness and robustness of the equipment are essential. The FCS-8 control surface uses the MIDI MCU protocol, which makes it possible to use it with digital audio work software.
