User manual:
- Plug and power via 8-series USB A. No setup required.
- Long press any encoder to toggle between VOLUME or TRIM (gain) mode.
- LED will light either red (volume) or green (trim) for the mode.
- Short press an encoder to toggle PFL for the corresponding channel
What’s changed in this new version:
- The former dedicated trim/volume toggle button has been replaced with a more simple approach: Press any of the encoders for mode toggling
- Multi color LED indicator, red = volume mode, green = trim mode, blue = initialization
- Eliminated some EMI / RF noise
- Enhanced enclosure design, smaller overall dimensions.
- 14 grams lighter, 99 grams total
- Enclosure material changed to all black carbon fiber PETG
Dimensions, weight L x W x H
120 x 24 x 28 (41 mm including knobs) mm
(will fit above XL-AES)
Weight: 99 grams
Please note, when the controller is first plugged in or rebooted, volume changes will initially start from -inf, then be stored locally for normal operation. Trim changes will always start from their relative position stored in the mixer.
FAQ:
What’s the build quality like?
The enclosure and knobs are 3D
printed, which means the product will not look and feel like the expensive
anodized aluminum sound equipment we’re all used to. 3D printed things can and
will have some minor cosmetic imperfections. Some hi-res photos are taken, so
please take a closer look and decide for yourself. The new TF6 enclosure is
made from carbon infused PETG which is strong, light weight, heat/UV resistant
and pretty good looking.
Will this work on my 6-series, 7-series, MixPre, etc ?
No, sorry – these units are only compatible with Sound Devices 8 series.
What happens if I plug this into a 888 or Scorpio?
The control protocol channel layout is a little different across the mixer
models, so a different controller firmware is needed for 888 or Scorpio.
What about an 8 ch version?
There’s an 8 channel version available for 888 users, TF8. There’s also a very
compact 2 knob / 8 channel controller available for both 833, 888 and Scorpio:
TF2X.
Can I use multiple USB controllers at a time?
Yes with a hub. Please consult the 8 series manual regarding third party
controller spill / individual mode to determine if this will work with your
use case.
How do I mount this thing?
The height of the unit fits so it can sit above the XL-AES. I just use some
double sided tape. Every mixer configuration is different, so you will
probably have to get creative.
What if Sound Devices stop supporting third party controllers in a future
firmware?
Third party support is an awesome
feature of the 8 series mixer range, Sound Devices even promote this and other
third party products on their own homepage. (Thank you Sound Devices!!)
