D-Command Main Unit

The D-Command® ES console gives you powerful, hands-on command over projects of any size, yet packs its renowned ICON-exclusive Pro Tools® functionality into a compact footprint that fits nicely in smaller studios. Powered by Pro Tools|HD®, D-Command ES offers a stunning darker color aesthetic to the award-winning console design, and features dedicated, center section panels for EQ and Dynamics plug-in editing, as well as per-channel control over many processing functions, routing, and automation modes.

Expand the base console with the D-Command ES Fader Module for maximum tactile control of up to 40 faders/channel strips. Plus, the banking features allow you to mix even larger sessions beyond the console’s maximum physical 40-fader capacity.

D-Command ES Fader Module

The D-Command™ Fader Module extends the hand-on control features of D-Command by adding 16 channel strips to the Main Unit. Each channel strip features a touch-sensitive motorized fader, two multi-purpose rotary encoders, and multiple push-buttons for quick access to key session parameters. D-Command can accommodate one Fader Module in addition to the 8-fader Main Unit for a total of 24 channels.
