Steven Slate Audio RAVEN MTi2 Console

Description

In the past decade, the technological revolution has transformed
audio into a medium that is produced and delivered in the digital
domain. Powerful Digital Audio Workstations have transferred the entire
recording studio into a virtual environment where all elements of the
studio appear conveniently on a computer screen. But what has been
lacking with the modern digital studio, is the same powerful workflow as
what was accomplished on tactile mixing consoles. So back in 2012,
Slate Media Technology came up with a solution. If the entire
production studio was on a computer screen, why not turn the actual
computer screen INTO a world class control surface? And the RAVEN
series of Multi-Touch consoles was born. Soon the RAVEN would be the
preferred control surfaces of major studios, engineers, producers,
artists, and educational institutions like Mark Needham, Terry Lewis,
Will.i.am, Jimmy Douglas, Full Sail University, and SAE.
Now in 2015, we are proud to offer the newest addition to the RAVEN
series, the MTi2. The MTi2 has all of the powerful features of its
predecessors, but at a cost that is the same as most regular high end
27” computer monitors!

Overview
The RAVEN MTi2 is a state of the art 27” Multi-Touch Production
Console featuring a state of the art multi-touch panel and the powerful
new RAVEN 3.0 Control Software. Using the RAVEN MTi2, users have access
to multi-touch faders, pans, sends, and tweak plugins with their
fingers as if they were real hardware. The RAVEN 3.0 Control Software
also features a user-customizable multifunction TOOLBAR and the award
winning BATCH COMMAND SYSTEM, a powerful automated task application that
will save audio engineers hours per day by cutting out tedious
technical tasks.

RAVEN 3.0
With the introduction of RAVEN 3.0, we have taken the already
game-changing RAVEN software to a new level by adding compatibility with
EVERY MAJOR DAW.
RAVEN 3.0 now adds customized multi-touch control of Ableton Live,
Cubase/Nuendo, Digital Performer, Logic Pro X, Protools 10-12, and
Studio One V3 on Mac as well as our first PC compatibility for Protools
10-12. The 3.0 update demonstrates exactly why the RAVEN is so
groundbreaking: through real time interaction we have the ability to
code our way to any fix or enhancement, and RAVEN has continued to
evolve.

The RAVEN Toolbar

In Toolbar mode, the RAVEN Toolbar is anchored directly in front of
your hands at the base of the touch display. Your DAW controls are where
you want them: Transport, Edit/Mix window selector – convenient tools
for tracking too, like Record Looping, Click, Create Group, and Undo.
Use intuitive multi-touch gestures on the RAVEN NAVPAD to perform
Scrub/Shuttle, Waveform Zoom, Track Zoom, and Track Banking, and RAVEN
Batch Commands. Best of all, because the RAVEN Toolbar is virtual, it’s
user-customizable – put the controls you want where you want them.

The Batch Command System

The RAVEN Batch Command System is a true revolution in control. The
BCS is a series of preset and customizable buttons that can execute up
to 1,000 key commands and mouse clicks automatically. With just one
button, BCS allows you to create instant headphone sends, name tracks,
put entire drum tracks on the grid, export stems, and so much more! The
BCS comes pre-programmed with 100 preset batch commands in every DAW we
support, with layouts for Music, Mastering, Post Production and more.
Record your own mouse click automation or program user commands with
our QUICKLIST, which features hundreds of predefined DAW operations.
Just touch and hold on a Batch Command button to edit, and you’ll have
access to almost limitless possibilities. With the Batch Command system
you’ll get it all done faster and smarter.

Slate Remote

Slate Remote revolutionizes your workflow in ways you must experience
to believe. Slate Remote is a free app for iOS users, available at the
app store to anyone with a Raven MTi2. Slate Remote automatically
synchronizes with your Raven session via wifi network and gives you
access to your custom batch Commands, allowing it to remotely perform
time-saving tasks for you from the palm of your hand.

Faders 3.0

FADERS 3.0 are our newest multi-touch faders that allow the most
precise control of your DAW faders. By integrating multi-touch 100mm
virtual faders directly into each DAW, the engineer has seamless control
over mix levels and automation. The new 3.0 algorithm gives the faders
a virtual ‘feel’ that allows an intuitive feeling action that is
comfortable and even fun to use. And for the most critical automation,
FINE FADER mode can quadruple the resolution of the faders so you can
get even the most minute moves down in the first pass with ease and
perfection.
