Focusrite RedNet R1 Desktop Remote Controller for Red Interfaces

Overview of Focusrite RedNet R1 Desktop Remote Controller for Red Interfaces

The desktop remote controller that supercharges every Red interface
RedNet R1 is a desktop remote controller that unleashes the power of Focusrite Red interfaces. It's designed for professionals who need to adapt their audio configurations quickly to suit the ever-increasing demands of the studio environment. Combine, select and switch audio from any conceivable source to a multitude of common (or user-defined) monitoring environments, and control large groups of speakers from a single set of controls. RedNet R1 is also a Dante-enabled talkback unit, with a powerful headphones output and built-in talkback mic, making it the ideal studio partner.

Features
• RedNet R1 combined with Focusrite Red interfaces are the first Dante, Pro Tools | HD and Thunderbolt interface system with a source selector and monitor controller
• Supports a maximum of eight source groups, each of up to 12 channels per source, to a maximum of 32 total channels.
• Supports up to 12 monitor output channels formatted from mono through to 7.1.4 surround
• Flexible monitor controls include level, preset level selection and lock, plus dim, mute and a variety of solo modes
• A/B switch for switching between monitoring setups
• Up to four fold-down presets allow fast switching for checking downmixes
• Talkback functionality provides four destination groups when used with a Red interface, or a single talkback group when used with other Dante devices
• Built-in internal microphone, or users can connect their own via the rear-panel XLR
• Two LCDs display highly accurate level metering of the outputs, sources and headphone outputs, and give visual cues for navigating menus
• High-fidelity headphone output can take its source from a multitude of analogue or digital locations
• RedNet Control software with hardware focused workflow is designed for quickly setting up simple or complex configurations
• Quarter-inch jack footswitch input socket for talkback management, LFE muting and more
• Powered via Ethernet (using the PoE standard), or using the supplied DC power supply
