High-Resolution Fader

• A 100mm ALPS motorized fader follows the selected mixer channel when you work. 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.

Control any Parameter

• 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 Logic Pro channel, at any time.
• Activate the Select button and the motorized fader now controls any parameter you click. Any mixer channel, instrument, or insert effect plug-in parameters. Click, control, click control. Super easy.

Easily Create Clean Automation

• Recording automation can get messy with lots of data generated, even when a simple fader is needed. Panorama CS12 solves the problem by giving you the option to insert automation points.
• Touch the fader, set the value with the fader, and done!
• Jump to the next position in the timeline and insert another automation point. Clean, easy, and fast.

Complete Insert FX Plug-In Control

• Panorama CS12 excels at controlling plug-ins. You can control any plug-in without looking at the plug-ins� UI, so you can focus on creating, composing, and editing.
• Many commonly used plug-ins are pre-mapped, including of course Logic Pro�s own. Panorama CS12 dedicates 12 RGB illuminated 360 pots, 4 display buttons, and an additional 4 RGB LED buttons to plug-in control. Every control can be assigned on multiple pages, ensuring a complete plug-in 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. 

Works with All Plug-Ins

• Any plug-in that presents its parameters for automation in Logic Pro, can be controlled from Panorama CS12. That includes Logic Pro�s own plug-ins and any AU plug-in hosted in Logic Pro.
• There is no wrapper or plug-in host. It just works.

Plug-In Slot Selection

CS12 control insert plug-ins like no controller has ever done before. The 8 plug-in slot select buttons are illuminated when plug-ins are present in the first 8 slots and the top button toggles between slots 1-8/9-16. Press a button and control the insert plug-in immediately. Press another button and control that plug-in.

Customizing Plug-In Mapping

Plug-in Parameter Learn

• A plug-in 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 color of the control too.

Nektarine Map Creation

• For the ultimate in control mapping, use the included Nektarine application/plug-in. Assign parameters to controls using drag and drop, create your page structure and name parameters and pages, so they are optimized for CS12. Once saved, plug-in maps are picked up by ControlCore for use with CS12.

• Create markers and with a button press, move the play head to the marker position anytime.
• You don�t have to learn Panorama CS12s 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.
