Dual-channel Monitor Controller with Active Circuits; 2 x Headphone Amplifiers; Crossfeed Control; Source, Speaker, Mono, and Dim Switches; and Balanced and Unbalanced I/O
A Feature-packed, High-quality Monitor Controller
Compact and user-friendly, the SPL 2Control gives you complete control of your DAW's monitoring functions. Whether you're listening through studio monitors or through headphones, the 2Control's high-quality speaker volume potentiometer and active circuitry ensure that you hear every nuance of your mix. Headphone monitoring through the 2Control is incredibly accurate thanks to its Crossfeed control, which lets you adjust your stereo panorama so that it corresponds to a stereo speaker image, rather than to the 180-degree panorama that headphones typically provide. You also get plenty of I/O, allowing you to connect both balanced and unbalanced gear, as well as a separate mono speaker or subwoofer. Packed in a convenient desktop form factor, the SPL 2Control monitor controller is sure to become popular!
- High-quality active circuitry delivers impeccable sound quality

- High-grade balancing stages let you connect just about anything
High-quality active circuitry delivers impeccable sound quality
Many of the D/A converters in audio interfaces don't provide analog level monitoring control, which necessitates varying your signal level at your converter outputs. This leads to a lowered bit depth in the monitoring signal, which can sometimes lead to a perceptible loss in audio quality. The SPL 2Control monitor controller utilizes a high-quality speaker volume potentiometer and active circuitry, resulting in pristine sound. In contrast to passive circuits, the 2Control's active design does not influence impedances when levels change, which can affect your frequency response. The 2Control's active design guarantees linearity.
Crossfeed control provides incredibly accurate headphone monitoring
With the SPL 2Control monitor controller's Crossfeed control you can adjust the stereo width of your headphones, imbuing them with the sound of a traditional monitoring environment, rather than the tightly focused and exaggerated stereo separation that you usually get from headphones. Imagine being able to enjoy a late night session at home without disturbing your neighbors and being able to monitor unhindered by a less-than-ideal acoustic environment. The 2Control gives you the benefits of headphone monitoring without its disadvantages. Talk about win/win!
High-grade balancing stages let you connect just about anything
The SPL 2Control monitor controller's first-class balancing stages let you easily connect unbalanced gear without a direct box. For example, you can connect CD players with RCA outputs or hi-fi power amplifiers with RCA inputs (of course, you need properly configured cables to do this). You also get balanced outputs for two stereo speaker sets, as well as a single output for a mono speaker or subwoofer. You can effortlessly integrate the 2Control into nearly any audio environment.
