Dexter is a new cousin of Jazz Mutant Lemur

Jazz Mutant announced new product at Musikmesse 2007 - the new surface touchscreen controller. It's designed to work with effects plug-ins and software DAWs. Unlike other outboard controller which you touch the button, fader or knob on the controller, now you can prefer to touch the screen! I think it is the bridge between normal computer use and the new Microsoft Surface Computer. Before the Surface Computer is available to musician for pro audio use, Dexter is the best and only alternative we have.

 The Dexter starts shipping on 5th July 2007

Special Features of Jazz Mutant DEXTER 

1. Patented Multitouch Display Technology. You can use all your fingers simultaneously.

2. Virtual widgets are immune to wear-out, unlike conventional hardware, the more you use the fader, knob or button which will break one day.

3. Zoomable controllers! This means high precision tweaking

4. Color presentations ease functions usability. For instant: shades of blue differentiate active tracks from muted ones, while red or yellow backgrounds make record enabled or soloed tracks stand out from the rest.

5. Instant navigation: immediate access to any feature of your Digital Audio Workstation. With conventional control surfaces, navigating inside a large-scaled project can rapidly turn into a nightmare. Instead, Dexter introduces the most evident way of browsing through your project, by including an arsenal of fancy widgets making operation more efficient and pleasant than ever. The smart Overview widget displays a miniaturized view of the whole mixer, showing up to 64 tracks at a time with levels and color-coded states. Swiping a finger across the view discloses the content of each bank of tracks, making each one of them accessible in a snap.
