Compact Music Production Bundle for Creators

The Icon Pro Audio QCon Pro XS Controller is a powerful and versatile control surface that offers a comprehensive set of features for professional audio production. At the heart of the device are 8 touch-sensitive motorized channel faders with 10-bit resolution, providing precise and responsive control over your audio channels.

Accompanying the faders are 8 dual-function encoder knobs, which can be used for a variety of tasks, such as adjusting parameters and navigating through your project. These encoders are surrounded by 11-segment LED rings, indicating their current position for easy visual feedback.

The QCon Pro XS also features a 12-segment LED level metering bridge, strategically positioned at the top of the controller for easy monitoring of channel levels. This angled design ensures that the metering information is easily readable, even in busy studio environments.

Adding to the intuitive control, the device is equipped with multicolor surround LED displays around the encoders, which change color based on the controlling parameter, making it easier to identify the current function of each knob (Cubase only).

The large dual-backlit LCD displays on the QCon Pro XS play a crucial role in providing clear and comprehensive information. The lower LCD displays the channel names, while the upper LCD shows different control parameters for each channel, allowing you to stay informed and in control of your mix.

The QCon Pro XS is designed to be expandable, with the ability to control up to 32 channels by chaining up to 3 units together. This makes it an incredibly versatile solution for larger-scale audio productions.

Regarding compatibility, the QCon Pro XS is class-compliant with a wide range of operating systems, including Windows XP, Vista (32-bit), 7 (32-/64-bit), 8 (32-/64-bit), 10 (64-bit), and Mac OS X (version 10.8 requires an Intel Mac, 32-/64-bit). This ensures seamless integration with your existing workflow.

The controller also features built-in Mackie control support for popular digital audio workstations (DAWs) such as Cubase, Nuendo, Samplitude, Logic Pro, Studio One, Bitwig, Reason, and Ableton Live, as well as Mackie HUI protocol support for Pro Tools. Additionally, the included iMap self-MIDI-mapping software allows users to customize the controller's functionality to their specific needs.

The QCon Pro XS is designed with a solid build quality and a robust metal casing, complete with a Kensington lock for added security. The package includes a power adapter, a USB 2.0 cable, and a software CD, providing everything you need to get started.

In conclusion, the Icon Pro Audio QCon Pro XS Controller is a feature-rich and versatile control surface that offers exceptional performance and customization options for professional audio production. Its intuitive design, advanced features, and broad compatibility make it an excellent choice for musicians, producers, and audio engineers looking to take their workflow to the next level.
