Literally thousands of world-leading recording and mastering studios, as well as film, post and broadcast facilities, have relied on tried-and-true high-end monitor controllers like CLARITY X, SYSTEM 6000, BMC2 and LEVEL PILOT over several decades. When you are flying with the MONITOR PILOT, you can have absolute peace of mind that you’re in for a smooth and safe flight! Unparalleled flexibility, transparent connectivity and direct access to volume level and stereo speaker selection right at your fingertips.
First of all, you can connect up to three stereo speaker sets on fully balanced, 22 dBu line level professional XLR connectors, as well as a pair of headphones on a 1/4” TRS jack connector, which is conveniently available on the front panel. On the input side, you will find another pair of balanced XLR connectors ready to take on the main output from your audio interface. On top of that, you also have the option of connecting any media device via the 1/8” mini jack connector on the front panel. Note that it will happily entertain balanced as well as unbalanced signals, depending on what device you connect.
Once you have installed your MONITOR PILOT, you are set for seamless and transparent switching between speakers, as well as clear visual indication of which speakers are currently active.
Most pilots are used to going just about anywhere and adapting seamlessly to the destination. MONITOR PILOT is no exception. The most visible part of the system is the remote control, which combines a sleek design with tactile deliciousness and a tiny footprint. In short, it will not take up a lot of desktop real estate and with a solid rubber base, it will sit firmly wherever you decide it should reside. Finally, the single-cable connection keeps your desktop clutter free.
The I/O box can be easily mounted on top of your desk, or underneath the table for easy access to the headphones output and 1/8” mini jack input. Since it’s also an all-analog solution, the MONITOR PILOT is completely computer independent, making integration an absolute breeze.
