Working with the Fairlight Desktop Console

Want to take your mixing to the next level?

Having a control surface can help speed things up and give you better control over your work.

The Fairlight Desktop Console for DaVinci Resolve has a jog wheel, faders, and lots of other controls for mixing.

Having physical knobs and faders is especially useful when recording automation, so you can adjust levels for multiple tracks at the same time as you play though.
