Radial Engineering Nuance Select Studio Monitor Controller

Radial Engineering Nuance Select Overview

Hear every detail through your speakers with the Nuance Select from Radial Engineering, a transparent and comprehensive monitor controller. Sporting controls and connections for up to two separate sets of stereo monitors, plus a subwoofer, and up to two headphone mixes, Nuance Select shines in both home and pro studios.

With two distinct stereo source inputs, you can easily swap between two different mixes for example, and with the the dual headphone amps and outputs, you can send one mix to your speakers and a cue mix to an artist. With the extra stereo aux output, you can also send your audio to an external headphone amp or other devices. With a robust steel enclosure and milled aluminum faceplate, Nuance Select is built to last for years of demanding studio use. Nuance Select includes a 4-pin switching power supply.

Control without Coloration

The Nuance Select is a studio monitor controller designed to let you hear every single detail through your speakers, with a distortion profile so low that it cannot be measured by most audio testing equipment. Complete audio transparency is achieved through an innovative circuit that allows you to hear the true mix through your speakers without any sacrifice in audio quality, all while still providing you with total control over your monitor setup.

Looking the Part

Housed in a robust steel enclosure with a milled aluminum faceplate, the Nuance Select will fit the aesthetic of any studio space and easily incorporate into your workflow, with an everything-you-need-and-nothing-you-don't approach to the feature set. Backlit monitor selection and control switches are complemented by oversized chrome knobs on the headphone and master level controls.

Comprehensive Monitor Controls

• Mono sums the left and right channels to mono for the A and B speaker outputs
• Select your desired stereo source with the SRC 1 and SRC 2 buttons
• Big chrome knob for overall output level of the speaker and sub outputs
• Two knobs for controlling levels of each headphone output
• Sub activates the mono sub output
• Dim reduces the volume by -15 dB
• A and B selects which set of speaker outputs is active and only one can be active at a given time

Inputs and Outputs

The Nuance Select features two sets of stereo source inputs, along with two sets of balanced TRS outputs for powered speakers. A full-range subwoofer output is also included that can be activated with either set of speakers as desired.

Two independent headphone amplifiers are available for monitoring or control room tracking-each headphone output can be assigned to its own stereo source, so you can feed a cue mix to an artist while monitoring the main mix yourself. The headphone outputs are provided on easily accessible front-panel jacks, and a stereo Aux output is available on the rear panel that can be used to feed an additional headphone amplifier for live room tracking.

Extra Highlights

• Customized 21-position rotary master level pot
