Nektar Panorama CS12 Channel Strip and DAW Plug-in Controller (CS-12)

For all the creative limitations that working within a DAW transcends, this endless virtual accessibility is a double-edged sword, inviting fatigue and frustration through the inability to get hands-on with your sound. The minds at Nektar had felt their workflow experiences with Apple Logic Pro were hampered by this lack of access, which led to the creation of the Panorama CS12 channel strip. This completely customizable DAW plug-in controller grants dynamic, hands-on control over your Apple Logic Pro experience, streamlining your workflow with a slew of RGB LED-backlit transport controls, rotary encoders, and soft switches. Logic Pro producers at Music Bliss are thoroughly smitten with the depth of the Panorama CS12’s accommodation, supplying detailed control of Logic Pro’s insert plug-ins, as well as a selection of third-party tools from Waves, UAD, and FabFilter, to name a few. One-press assignment makes mapping a breeze, whether that means automation functions, channel sends, or virtually any other parameter within your Logic Pro session. In addition to its robust yet malleable functionalities, the Panorama CS12 features a Fine mode that allows for unprecedented resolution with the 360-degree rotary knobs, offering control up to 10 times standard resolution — and industry-first DAW controller function.
