Avid S1 EUCON Desktop Control Surface

Hands-On Control for Pro Tools Professionals

The Avid S1 delivers the power, speed, and visual feedback of Avid’s flagship consoles in a compact, modern control surface. Designed for today’s studios, it gives producers, engineers, educators, and post-production professionals hands-on control without the size or cost of a large-format console.

With responsive motorized faders, touch-sensitive knobs, and touchscreen-integrated controls, the S1 creates an intuitive workflow that keeps you focused on creativity—not menus. When paired with the free Pro Tools | Control app for iPad, the S1 unlocks advanced metering, processing views, and S6-style layouts for faster, more confident mixing.

Speed Up Music, Video, and Post-Production Workflows

Relying only on a mouse and keyboard can slow down even experienced engineers. The Avid S1 brings precision and immediacy to your workflow, allowing you to shape mixes, write automation, and make creative decisions in real time.

For post-production facilities and educational studios, the S1 offers the power of larger consoles in a compact, scalable design. This makes it easy and affordable to equip multiple rooms. Video editors and sound designers benefit from faster edits, improved accuracy, and smoother collaboration across applications.

Deep EUCON Integration with Pro Tools

Powered by Avid’s ultra-fast EUCON protocol, the S1 delivers exceptional speed and accuracy—up to 250x faster and 8x more precise than MIDI. EUCON automatically detects the active application and maps controls instantly to match your workflow.

With access to thousands of Pro Tools functions and growing support for third-party software, the S1 allows seamless switching between DAWs and workstations at the press of a button. The result is a fluid, professional mixing and editing experience that keeps you in the creative zone.

OLED Displays and the Free Pro Tools | Control App

High-resolution OLED displays provide clear feedback for track names, automation modes, and parameters. Meanwhile, the free Pro Tools | Control app expands your visual workspace with S6-style metering and channel processing views.

The dedicated Monitoring View lets you manage talkback, listenback, speaker sources, and levels directly from the surface. This makes the S1 ideal for professional recording sessions and hybrid studio setups. As your studio grows, the S1 grows with you—simply add more units or integrate Pro Tools | Dock for transport control, a jog wheel, and expanded functionality.
