The new CDC seven maintains all of the feel and familiarity of the CDC six, with its major ergonomic advance in user operation and resulting minimal learning curve. Scaling up operational flexibility, the CDC seven doubles up on both the large format LCD touch screen, with its associated encoders, and the physical fader count; also expanding the number of inputs to 96. The new console retains the CDC six's 56 busses; 48 of them configurable.
"We were extremely pleased with the reception the CDC six received when launched 18 months ago," says Nick Fletcher, director of research and development, "and we believe the CDC seven will be met with the same universal approval. As a result of the continual development of our innovative user interface, industry leading latency management system and unsurpassable audio performance we believe the CDC seven offers an incredibly attractive proposition for those who want something that stands head and shoulders above the norm. In addition to which, we are offering all this at an extremely competitive price point."
