Livid Instruments DS1 MIDI Mixer studio controller

General

The impressive black Livid DS1 studio controller is the result of a collaboration between Livid Instruments and Dubspot, one of the world's leading schools for electronic music production. Combined, Dubspot's years of experience and Livid's use of high-quality materials and excellent designs are a recipe for success. After years of looking for a controller that is both widely applicable and reliable, Dubspot decided to design one themselves. Please welcome the Livid Instruments DS1!

Livid DS1: a comprehensive controller

Made of top-grade materials, the Livid DS1 is an excellent tool for producers and DJs. Use its 9 faders, 25 RGB buttons and backlit knobs to control numerous functions of your DAW, virtual instruments and DJ software - templates are available for packages like Ableton Live, Bitwig Studio and Logic. Thanks to its rugged aluminium housing and compact design, the DS1 is easy to take with you. Connect it via its USB MIDI connector and, if you like, plug an expression pedal into its expression input.

Practical, with a clear layout

The DS1's master section consists of 9 buttons, 4 push encoders, 4 knobs and a main fader. You can power the controller via its USB port, unless you want to be able to use its full LED light potential. A range of coloured LEDs allows for intuitive use, and it's even possible to connect an optional external crossfader to the DS1's pedal input. With this MIDI mixer studio controller, Livid Instruments and Dubspot offer outstanding functionality and optimal reliability in a sleek black housing.
