Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
SOURCE is a portable monitor controller for making tracking and mixing decisions from four selectable sources. The front headphone amplifier connects up to two headphone pairs and allows source monitoring one at a time or in combination. That supports separate singer and engineer listening setups, as well as playback from an iPod through AN2 and AN1. A line-level control-room output follows the speaker selector for dubbing, sampling, or external meters.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Tracking sessions where a singer and engineer need separate listening sources.
- Mixing and source checks with two headphone pairs connected at the front panel.
- Dubbing, sampling, or feeding external meters from the mirrored control-room output.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Windows 8 systems, which are not compatible.
- Users needing a rack kit included with the controller.
