New Digidesign Surround Panner Ships

The new ICON D-Control worksurface by Digidesign is now available.

The Surround Panner works with Digidesign's Pro Tools TDM 6.9.3 software and higher and Mac systems require Mac OS 10.4.

Features include integrated 640x480 high-resolution color LCD touchscreen, two touch-sensitive joysticks, six mode buttons for each panner, direct control over panning and divergence via touchscreen and more. ICON operators can use the high-res touchscreen to enter snap automation moves or place sounds with touchable on-screen speaker icons. Surround Panner includes two encoders, which feature 15-segment LED rings.

In addition, a new AutoGlide function pans sound automatically from one position to the next.
