Digidesign Introduces ICON D-Command ES (16/7/2008)

New updated worksurface aesthetics, plus new D-Command ES Pro Tools bundles

Following on the success of the updated ICON D-Control(tm) ES worksurface, Digidesign is pleased to announce the newly-updated ICON D-Command(r) ES worksurface, which features the same stunning aesthetics as its larger sibling, but in a compact design. As an update to the original blue D-Command(r), the new D-Command ES has been stylishly enhanced with a darker colour scheme as well as updated, higher contrast text and graphics for improved legibility in low light.

Like other members of the ICON family, the new D-Command ES boasts unparalleled integration with industry-standard Pro Tools HD(r) software, including complete recall of all session parameters, routing, and plug-ins. Expandable up to 24 faders, D-Command ES features dedicated central controls for editing EQ and Dynamics plug-ins, enabling mixers to make adjustments while monitoring in the "sweet spot." It also provides per-channel control over many Pro Tools(r) processing functions, routing, and automation modes.

Pricing and D-Command ES Bundles

The ICON D-Command ES, which is currently available through authorised ICON dealers, has a manufacturer suggested retail price of £9,345 exc. VAT (UKP) for the main unit. Additional 16-channel D-Command ES Fader Modules can be had for £8,245 exc. VAT (UKP) each.

In addition to offering the new D-Command ES worksurface, Digidesign is also offering an 8 fader and a 24 fader D-Command ES Bundle that allow customers to save thousands of dollars by purchasing a complete ICON and Pro Tools|HD system bundle instead of buying the same items à la carte.
