Advanced, Innovative DAW Control

FaderPort®: USB Production Controller

 

Don’t kill that mouse—give it a companion.

Although a keyboard and mouse are tried-and-true DAW-control devices, they’re far more effective when used in tandem with the FaderPort®’s precise tactile control over mix and automation functions.

A superior solution for anyone who mixes in the box, the FaderPort provides a 100 mm touch-sensitive, motorized fader for writing fades and automation in real-time and 24 buttons covering 40 different functions, all in a compact chassis that easily sits on any desk.

Quickly zoom in on audio files for editing. Control track levels with the touch of a finger. With the FaderPort, you’ll enjoy the fastest, most efficient workflow you’ve ever experienced.

 

Work smarter.

We’ve incorporated elements from the award-winning FaderPort 8 into our new and improved FaderPort. Rather than forcing you to revise your mixing method, the FaderPort augments the way you currently mix.

You still use your faithful keyboard and mouse for things they do well, and the FaderPort handles what you really want to get your fingers on: your mix. This is DAW control the way you always hoped it could be!

One-button access to key functions.*

The FaderPort’s innovative Session Navigator offers effortless access to eight essential functions, ensuring unparalleled flexibility. Utilize the large encoder button and accompanying buttons to enhance editing and mixing efficiency significantly.

Effortlessly navigate your timeline using the encoder or work meticulously measure by measure with the arrow buttons.

Zoom in and out on the timeline using the encoder, adjust track sizes with the arrow buttons, drop markers, and maintain precise control over your main levels.

Once you integrate the Session Navigator into your workflow, you’ll question how you managed without it.

Functionality may vary depending on your software configuration.

 

Universal compatibility. Integrated with Ableton Live.

While compatible with most third-party software, the FaderPort offers enhanced integration with Ableton Live (version 10.1.5 and later).

Effortlessly navigate clips and scenes, adjust track volume and panning, and seamlessly switch between Session and Arranger views — the FaderPort accelerates your workflow like never before.

Plus, if you purchase a FaderPort after January 18, 2020, you’ll receive a complimentary copy of Ableton® Live Lite in your My.PreSonus account.

The FaderPort’s intuitive design and support for Mackie Control and HUI protocols ensure efficient control over Logic Pro X, Cubase, Pro Tools, and other software applications.

With no driver installation required, simply plug the control surface into a USB port and take command of your mix.

 

An amazingly fast, efficient studio workflow awaits you!

With the compact, easy-to-use FaderPort, you’ll enjoy the fastest, most efficient workflow and the most session control you’ve ever experienced. But don’t just take our word for it; visit your favorite PreSonus dealer and try the FaderPort for yourself!
