The RAVEN MTX Mk2 multi-touch mixer removes all obstacles between you and your DAW. It's designed as a modern reimagining of the classic recording console. While large-format analog consoles are great for warming up digital mixes, they weren't designed for modern production workflows and can leave you feeling creatively disconnected and unsatisfied. By using a state-of-the-art multi-touch display, the RAVEN MTX Mk2 lets you cut out the technological middleman for direct, hands-on control of your DAW. Now compatible with most major DAWs, the RAVEN MTX Mk2 lets you record, mix, and master in the box with unprecedented ease. At Sweetwater, we're positively stoked about the Slate Media Technology RAVEN MTX Mk2 multi-touch mixer!
