New FIT Controller for Waves’ eMotion Mixer
New FIT controller is the ultimate way to control eMotion LV1 mixer, providing all its benefits in a robust, feature-rich tactile controller.
1 July 2020
Waves FIT has been co-engineered by Waves Audio and expert MIDI control manufacturer MIDIPLUS to offer live sound engineers quick and efficient operation and intuitive tactile control of the world’s best live software mixer, with all the advantages of a high-quality robust controller, including tactile response of faders, knobs and buttons for console operations.
FIT is designed to function as a fully integrated 16-fader bank with the LV1 mixer. This is made possible with 16 + 1 motorised 100mm faders, each featuring Mute, Solo and Select buttons, a multi-function rotary control and a bright display for each channel. Fader banks are controlled using eight dedicated layer switches for toggling between the eight factory or custom layers in the Waves eMotion LV1 Live Mixer. The channel rotary controls can be set to adjust preamp gain or pan per channel with the corresponding function label shown in the display. In addition, the 16 Select channel toggles can be set to “USER” mode to provide easy access to Mute Groups and user-assignable keys.

Additionally, common LV1 functions and modes can be controlled from the UTILITY section, where some of the controlled functions be customised by the user.
