Fairlight Live Audio Panel 20

This desktop control surface is designed for sound engineers who need more physical control and visual feedback than compact panels can offer, while still maintaining a manageable footprint for studios, control rooms and mobile production environments. It is purpose‑built to integrate seamlessly with Fairlight Live, transforming the software mixer into a highly responsive live production tool that can be confidently operated under broadcast pressure.

At the core of the design are twenty high quality motorised faders that automatically follow the active mix and layer selections. This ensures immediate visual and tactile confirmation of channel states, even when switching between large input counts or complex bussing structures. Above the faders, two large 11.6 inch Full HD touchscreen displays provide detailed insight into channel strips, metering, equalisation, dynamics processing and plug‑in control. The close relationship between physical controls and on‑screen information allows engineers to work quickly and accurately without diverting attention away from the mix.

The control layout is optimised for live workflows, with direct access to layers, buses, matrices, auxiliaries, VCAs, submasters and talkback. This makes it easy to manage commentary, IFB, mix‑minus feeds and effects returns during demanding productions such as sports, entertainment and large studio shows. The surface is fully integrated with Fairlight Live, meaning all settings, snapshots and routing changes are reflected instantly between software and hardware.

Connectivity is designed for modern IP‑based production environments. Dual 10G Ethernet ports support SMPTE‑2110 audio and video workflows, enabling native operation within broadcast IP infrastructures. A separate 1G Ethernet connection handles computer control, configuration and software updates, keeping management traffic isolated from real‑time media streams. A USB‑C connection is also provided for straightforward host system integration.

Analogue audio connectivity supports hybrid setups, with microphone input, dedicated talkback headset connections, balanced line outputs and dual headphone outputs for monitoring. Power can be supplied via standard IEC mains, making the surface suitable for both fixed installations and portable racks. This balance of size, control density and network readiness makes the panel ideal for mid‑scale live productions that demand speed, reliability and flexibility.
