-- Control|24 --

Digidesign announced that a brand new ergonomic control surface, built
especially for Mac OS-based Pro Tools TDM systems, will be available
shortly.

The brand new Control|24 originated from Focusrite, and is designed for
music, post-production, or any other application requiring hands-on
control of Pro Tools.

With its 24 touch-sensitive motorized faders, 16 Focusrite Class A Mic
Preamps and 5.1 surround capabilities, it will naturally be compared to
the more expensive Pro Control.

There are many significant differences however.

"Significant" is correct. 16 mic pres, an internal bus mixer and 24 faders to talk to PT. $8k official list price in USD. You still need 888s to go a/d, and all the connectors on the back are db-25s. Definitely not competing w/ ProControl. The new expansion/controller w/keyboard, panners, and more dedicated buttons looks like the way to go...
