Get Supreme Flexibility and Audio Quality With The DigiCo S21 Digital Console and Live Surface

The Digico S21 is a gateway to an entirely new way of thinking about audio. Since it's inception in 2002, DiGiCo has always tried to innovate and push technology to deliver more in terms of flexibility and audio quality. The S21 is a state-of-the-art digital mixer and live surface console, that can easily handle jobs large or small.  It harnesses the power and capabilities of DigiCo's flagship offerings at an affordable starting price.  DigiCo designed the S21 to be expandable through DMI (DigiCo Multichannel Interface) card slots that can interface with industry formats be it Analogue expansion, MADI, Dante, Optocore, Waves SoundGrid, or Calrec’s Hydra 2 Network. 

TWO TOUCH SCREENS

DigiCo has been including touch screen technology into their designs since 1997.  Today they utilised the latest P-CAP multi-touch screens for clear visual feedback and gesture control for an intuitive user experience.  To up the ante, DigiCo added a second screen!

The compact dual screen design of S21 provides 10 channel strips per screen allowing the operator instant feedback and control on 20 simultaneous channels. This amount of instantaneous feedback offers total reassurance when mixing large shows, but the newly designed drag, swipe and drop channel layout system makes it simple for operators to move channels and busses across the surface to design their own custom fader layouts.

Whatever function you are using, there is an interactive meter where you would expect it, and helpful colour coding so you know which section you're looking at, be it channel, aux, or group.

Visual feedback is all reinforced with the HTL functionality of the encoder rings, and anything not in use is automatically greyed out on the console so operator's attention is drawn to the right controls.

The beauty of having two screens not only gives you more channels to view at any one time, but it allows you to utilise one as a setup or master screen, while still operating with the other. You are always looking in the same location, whatever function you have highlighted.

Touch the EQ screen, and you can choose to pinch, touch and drag your curves on the touch screen, or for a more tactile experience, use the rotary encoders to fine-tune your frequencies, then press to change function or switch on/off. It's the same philosophy for all other processing functions within the console.

The new look screen designs are all developed under the flat designs philosophy, to aid the user learning curve and take away distraction from an operator. These new designs will still be familiar to existing DiGiCo users, but allow new operators to feel at home and ready to take advantage of the wealth of integrated processing. 

Channel Bank Layout: as with all DiGiCo products, you can alter where the banks are located, and mix and match any channel, aux, group, control group, or matrix within a bank, with the ease of drag and drop, at the touch of a screen.

CONSTRUCTION

As an audio engineer, when you first stand in front of an S21, it looks and feels remarkably inviting. You want to touch and control the audio. This level of connection with the audio sources and their manipulation is something the world's leading audio engineers experience when they harness the powerful SD7. From the aerospace graded aluminium extrusion, the durable polycarbonate overlays, the RGB LED Hidden Til Lit technology coupled with touch sensitive faders / encoders and integrated LED light bar, you know it's a DiGiCo before you turn the PA on. The S21 redefines industry expectations at its price point.
