crystal - Control Surface Modules

This topic describes the control surface modules.

Module Options

crystal is offered with three control surface modules: Main, Fader and VX.

The Main module provides 6 fader strips plus central controls.
The Fader module provides 8 fader strips.
The Virtual Extension (VX) module provides visual feedback and touch-screen operation.

All modules are offered in a choice of surface finishes (light or dark). There are no functional differences between the versions and so a light module will work in a dark frame, and vice versa.

The Main and Fader modules are a standard size and can be fitted to any frame type. When populating a frame, please observe the surface configuration rules explained earlier.

The VX module can be fitted to any of the VX frame types. It slots directly into the VX frame at a fixed viewing angle.
