Your new SL Mixface

Product overview

Thank you for choosing SL Mixface, an instrument
designed and built for your production or musical
performance, in the studio or on stage.
We recommend that you read the whole manual
carefully, to understand the instrument and its controls,
starting from a general description of the structure up
to the detailed programming.
We remind you to frequently visit the Studiologic
website, to download firmware updates and product
support software.
Let's start with a general overview of the Mixface
functions.
Mixface contains two instruments in a single device:
a traditional remote Control Surface (DAW mode) and
a MIDI Controller (CTRL mode) with the possibility to
communicate with the MIDI Controllers and expand
the Studiologic SL88/73 with new functions.
To switch from one mode to another, simply press the
"DAW | CTRL" button below the display.

The DAW mode

The DAW mode allows you to control your DAW (Digital
Audio Workstation) with 9 sliders, 8 potentiometers
for the Pan and 8 multi-function buttons (Rec, Mute,
Solo, Select). To the right of the mixer section are the
Transport controls and selection buttons for the 4
modes (Rec, Mute, Solo, Select) located below the
sliders.

The Controller mode (CTRL)

The Controller mode transforms Mixface into a fully
programmable MIDI Control Surface; it can be used
to control your software or hardware synthesizers and
sound modules, or any controllable device via MIDI
In addition, using the USB Host port, Mixface can
become an extension of your Studiologic SL series
Controller (SL88 Grand, SL88/73 Studio), or turn any
MIDI Controller into a 4 Zone Master Keyboard and 50
1
Zone controls.
The buttons of the Transport section (to manage your
DAW) remain active also in Controller mode.
