X-Touch Compact: The "console" spirit in a compact format within the X-Touch range
The BEHRINGER X-Touch Compact carries the DNA of the X-Touch series: delivering console-like feel (motorized faders, direct controls, visual feedback) while remaining easy to integrate on a home studio desk, in a mobile control room, or on a stage setup. Its optimized size saves space without sacrificing the essentials for smoothly managing a DAW project.
Who is it for, and in which studio and live applications?
This universal control surface is aimed at producers, sound engineers, film composers, and performers who prefer mixing "by hand" rather than with a mouse. It is also suitable for live applications, where immediate access to controls, button illumination, and the ability to control external MIDI devices simplify real-time changes, whether for audio or lighting.
Key features to speed up workflow (automation, mapping, MIDI control)
Motorized faders and automation: a mix that can be controlled and recalled
The 9 fully automated, touch-sensitive 100 mm motorized faders facilitate precise automation writing and simultaneous control of multiple tracks. During playback, the motorization reproduces recorded movements: a real comfort gain for balancing a mix, adjusting levels, or quickly checking an automation scene.
Two layers + LED feedback: more parameters, fewer menus
The 2-layer mode allows switching between two sets of assignments, useful for alternating between editing and mixing, or separating virtual instruments and DAW controls. The 16 rotary knobs with LED displays and 39 illuminated buttons provide clear function and status identification, ideal when quick action is needed.
Built-in USB/MIDI and configuration application
The integrated USB/MIDI interface simplifies connection to a Mac or PC while offering a gateway to external MIDI equipment. The dedicated configuration application allows comprehensive setup of the control surface to tailor the mapping to your software, instruments, and workflow.

Very good product! I use it in Mackie Control, super fast, and it does everything I expected. The ergonomics in mancie control for controller Reason9 requires a little bit of gray cell gymnastics, but it never hurts... After a few hours of use, I almost forget that I am in MC and the diagram for assigning the pots is no longer useful to me..
The Q/P ratio is still unbeatable at Behringer.
And woodbrass, you are at the top! Not even charged to my PayPal account, as I am already having fun with my new order!.. Don't change anything!
Am a happy man!... ThxAutomatically translated
