Audient NERO Desktop Monitor Controller
Product Description
Complete Control
At the core
of your studio
As your studio grows it becomes harder to control. Nero enables you to centralise, connect and control all your monitoring needs from one intuitive desktop controller.
How does it sound?
Well, it doesn’t really
sound like anything
Nero gives you the
cleanest monitoring
path possible
Precision Matched
Stereo Volume
What does it do?
Nero perfectly matches the volume of the left and right channels of your stereo signal using Audient’s custom Precision Matched Attenuation Technology.
How does it help?
Unlike other monitor controllers, this prevents any deviation in volume between your left and right monitors or unbalancing of your stereo image, enabling you to monitor accurately and mix with confidence.
