Advanced Portable System T Control Interface

Overview

Flagship Portable Control

The System T Desktop Fader Tile Plus (DFT+) provides portable control for powerful, compact System T installations. Used in conjunction with Tempest Control App, the DFT+ offers dedicated hands-on control for System T installations, with enhanced visual feedback to meet the needs of the most demanding operations. Additionally, a System T Desktop Fader Tile Plus and computer running TCA software can be combined within a single system along with main control surface(s), providing custom solutions to fit any application or environment.

 

Portable System T Control

With the same comprehensive levels of control functionality as SSL’s flagship S500 fader tile, the new DFT+ provides access to up to 960 channel paths on a single tile. It boasts 16 full-size physical faders, 15 control layers, and four banks per layer, as well as dedicated PFL buttons and back stop PFL. Features include input, compression, gate, and automix metering on each channel input, as well as an OLED screen for enhanced visual feedback. This expanded metering functionality gives users more detailed monitoring and control over every audio signal in their production setup, directly from the fader tile.
