Hands-on command
The MasterControl's control surface functions allow hands-on command of HUI-compatible DAWs and external MIDI devices.

An LCD screen allows you to easily monitor controller feedback and enable customization of button and knob functions, and removeable, customize-able templates give you dedicated control over your DAW program and MIDI devices.

The great-feeling jog wheel can be used to shuttle, zoom and enter data, and is complemented by a dedicated transport control section. Two banks of eight fully-assignable buttons provide different functions for setting markers, loop points, and automation modes, while nine 100mm motorized faders and eight 360-degree virtual assignable knobs give you convenient control over your DAW's parameters.
