Active Studio Monitor Controller

I needed a monitor controller for my studio for two pairs of speakers and a couple of inputs. As much as some of the functionality of active monitor controllers appeals to me, the sound quality is first and foremost. And we all know that unless you spend $3k - $10k most active systems severely color your sound - a little more than my current budget. I wasn't sure what to expect with this affordable passive controller however, after spending a few weeks with it I can say without a doubt that it is a great addition to my studio. I hear no coloration or change to the stereo sound field. The Mute, Dim, and Mono sum functions are really handy. And the build quality feels good under your hand. My only complaint is that it would be nice if the knob travel was detented for repeatable levels. Two Big Thumbs Up!

I bought this to use as an iphone input into my studio monitor controller as well as my live sound mixer. It works great. Glad I purchased it.

I've been waiting on this Mackie Big Knob Studio Monitor Controller and Interface forever, finally B&H got them available, so i went ahead and get one, so far so great, sounds clean and crisp no coloration additive. I'm thinking about getting another one. I've tested the Onyx Mic pre's in Logic pro x, very clean, Mackie Big Knob Studio being advertised only at 24/96KHZ, it goes up to 192KHZ...

Very robust Studio Monitor controller. Has a big volume knob to passively control the volume of you studio monitors. Has a mute push in button:source, mono, monitor buttons as well.

We are so impressed with this monitor. We use it as a studio monitor and as a PTZ controller monitor. The waveform and vectorscope monitoring software that's built into it is awesome! We now consider this as our go to monitor.

Incredible and cheap equipment: high quality interface and good studio monitor controller for 200 bucks! The compatibility with Logic X is perfect, thank you Mackie!

If you use Studio One, this controller is a great addition.

Used this from my monitor controller to my near-fields. Does exactly what I wanted it to do.

These are actually the best active studio monitors objectively speaking. The best on the face of the planet revolving around the sun

The HAUC Active Stereo Headphone Control Box by Whirlwind fits the bill perfectly for studio headphone control. Easily mounted under the desk, it is a solid piece of gear. In my studio, I have several headphone locations branching off a multi-headphone amp. Using the HAUC, i am able to give each user a choice of 3.5 mm and 1/4 jacks, and full volume control. Installation was a breeze with four screws. At my news-talk table, I have daisy-chained three thanks to the dual jacks in the back, and each still has its own volume control. Well worth the money and highly-recommended.
