Alesis iO/Control Firewire Audio Interface/Controller

The iO|Control is the ultimate interface and control surface for both mobile recording and home studio use. Backed by Alesis' unmatched reputation in the field of professional studio electronics, the iO|Control allows for up to 12 channels (4 analog and 8 digital) of simultaneous input to your computer via the integrated, low latency FireWire interface.

With quick control over the most common Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) commands, the lightweight but rugged iO|Control gives users a practical and expandable audio I/O with a sleek implementation of the most commonly used control surface features. The unit's jog wheel can be used to shuttle, zoom and enter data, while 6 fully-assignable buttons provide different functions for setting markers, loop points and automation modes. And with 3 layers of 4 360-degree knobs, the io|Control offers immediate control of up to 12 parameters, such as volume, pan and aux sends.

The iO|Control is bus or adapter-powered and comes with award-winning Cubase LE software, to complete a package that gives professionals the ability to handle even the most demanding recording tasks with ease.
