Drag EQ curves, tweak compressor thresholds, and adjust send levels with natural gestures—just like working on an analog console. This immediacy accelerates decision-making and keeps you in the creative zone. 🎨✨

How Does the Batch Command System Work?

The Batch Command System in RAVEN 3.0 automates complex sequences of actions—like exporting stems, bouncing tracks, or batch-renaming clips—with a single touch. Create custom macros that execute up to 999 steps in one go, turning hours of repetitive clicking into seconds. Spend less time on technical chores and more on crafting great productions! 📦⚡

Frequently Asked Questions ❓

Do I need special drivers to use the RAVEN MTi2?

No—RAVEN installs as a standard USB MIDI/HID device. Simply connect via USB-C, install the RAVEN 3.0 software, and you’re ready. The console will communicate directly with your DAW and update itself automatically. 🔌✅

Can I control my outboard gear through the RAVEN?

Yes. Use the MIDI OUT port to send MIDI CC messages to external hardware—like outboard compressors or modular synths. Map faders and knobs in RAVEN 3.0 to any MIDI parameter and use the console as a universal hardware controller. 🎛️🎹

How does the RAVEN differ from traditional control surfaces?

Unlike static fader-based surfaces, RAVEN’s full-screen multi-touch display adapts to any DAW function—faders become EQ curves, knobs become waveform zoom controls, and the toolbar houses your most-used commands. This visual flexibility goes far beyond fixed physical controls. 🖥️🙌
