Rely Less on Your Keyboard and Mouse
Work faster with dedicated transport controls
The main transport section of the PreSonus FaderPort 16 is extremely convenient. In addition to all the standard transport controls, you have general session controls such as undo/redo, solo/mute clear, track management, and more, plus you can switch automation modes instantly.
Manage complex sessions with Session Navigator
FaderPort 16's Session Navigator handles important tasks such as track scrolling, channel banking, and navigation needs. Dedicated buttons make it easy to arm tracks for recording, view buses and VCAs, and more. Eight programmable User buttons allow you to put your most-needed DAW functions right where you need them.
Edit plug-in settings from your control surface
FaderPort 16 allows you to use the faders to edit common plug-in settings and bus sends — you'll find yourself reaching for your mouse less and less. Being able to work at the plug-in level with your control surface is one of Sweetwater's favorite things about the FaderPort 16.
