Nektar Panorama CS12 – Channel-Strip Controller with Motorized Fader & DAW Integration

The Panorama CS12 brings professional channel strip ergonomics to your desktop. With a 100 mm motorized fader, RGB pumps and encoders, a colourful 3.5″ TFT display, and hands-on plugin control, it’s built to speed up editing, deepen your connection to your DAW, and let your fingers do the moving—not the mouse.

Key Features

100 mm motorized ALPS fader: High-resolution (14-bit) control that follows your selected track and lets you touch to insert clean automation points.

Fully-loaded channel strip: Includes illuminated pan knob, Arm/Mute/Solo/Select buttons, and a 6-segment LED level meter.

Plugin control panel: 12 RGB-illuminated endless pots complemented by 11 RGB buttons, four parameter soft keys, and a parameter-level OLED screen for intuitive plugin control.

3.5″ colour TFT display: Shows plugin GUI, assigns parameters, and features three encoders plus four soft buttons to navigate and tweak your tools with visual feedback.

Transport & navigation: 18 functions including timeline, looping, markers, playhead movement, tempo and zoom control—all accessible via buttons and encoders.

Footswitch input: Allows hands-free control during tracking or live use, with support for dual foot pedals via Y-cable.
