      Precision Matched Stereo Volume Control

      Nero perfectly matches the volume of the left and right channels of your stereo signal using  Audient’s custom Precision Matched Attenuation Technology. 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.

      Assignable Sub

      Easily assign a sub to activate when switching to a monitor path of choice but maintain the ability to switch it on and off without losing your saved preset. Nero also lets you audition the sub on any alternative set of speakers without forcing you to assign it permanently.

      Smart Touchpoints

      Smart Touchpoints enable you to customise your workflow on the fly. Easily route and configure Nero’s outputs and monitor controls to create monitoring combinations that suit your needs. Simply hold down a Smart Touchpoint to put it into setup mode, select your routing options and press it again to save.

      • Assign any input source to your headphone outputs using the SRC buttons.
      • Assign the Talkback Mic to any or all headphone outputs and quickly communicate
      • with your artists.
      • Save time by easily setting any of your outputs permanently to Mono. Perfect for
      • your Mono reference speakers.
      • Assign your Subwoofer to any or all of your 3 stereo outputs with the ability to still
      • switch on off and audition without losing your saved routing.
      • Save all your settings permanently by holding down any two speaker output buttons
