Perfecting Your Workflow With The Avid S4

Mix engineers around the world utilize the Avid S6's perfect blend of workflow, ergonomics and versatility to create audio output of the highest quality. For those working in smaller spaces, Avid has taken the award-winning technology of the S6 and streamlined it for the more compact form factor of the S4.

The Avid S4's smaller frame size (3', 4' and 5') doesn't hinder the power of the control surface at all. Instead, engineers can easily command world-class DAW integration, display options, monitoring capabilities and much more from within arm's reach. The control surface opens up a world of opportunity for expansive creative control of stereo, surround and immersive audio.

Avid offers potential S4 owners the choice of selecting from a pre-built system or designing their own custom control surface. Throughout this guide, Vintage King will walk you through these different options, explain each section of the S4 and help you take the next step in selecting your control surface.

Avid S4 Module Glossary

The semi-modular nature of the Avid S4 means that you're able to build out your control surface to fit the way you like to work. Avid enables customers the ability to create a surface with up to three Channel Strip Modules, four Display Modules and up to three other option modules (Attention Knob Modules, Post and/or Joystick). Here is a breakdown of each module that can be installed in a S4 set-up.

  • Avid S4 Master Module

    Master Touch

    The Control Surface Engine

    As the heart of the S4, the Master Touch Module is your tool for controlling plug-ins, monitoring and more. Take charge of your mix and control parameters with this 12.1” multipoint touchscreen, eight rotary encoders and additional knobs and keys.

  • Avid S4 Automation Module

    S4 Automation

    Navigate and Automate

    Navigating and automating large scale projects is made easy with the Master Automation Module. You'll have full control with a shuttle/jog wheel, focus fader, automation control, numeric keypad and additional keys and switches.

  • Avid S4 Joystick Module

    S4 Joystick

    Surround Sound Control

    If you're mixing a surround sound or immersive audio project, the Joystick Module is a necessary part of your job. Mix with precision by using this module's dual touch-sensitive joystick and TFT and OLED displays to guide your process.

  • Avid S4 Post Module

    S4 Post

    Fast Track Your Mix

    Avid's S4 Post Module fast tracks the completion of post projects by offering quick switching between recorded tracks and your inputs. The module features two rows of 10 PEC/DIRECT paddles to help make sure your inputs sound identical prior to punching in to record.

  • Avid S4 Channel Strip Module

    S4 CSM Channel Strip

    Versatile, Tactile Control

    The Avid S4 CSM Channel Strip Module gives users the ability to control level, plug-ins and other elements of mixes with eight channel faders, 32 knobs (four per channel) and additional keys and switches. The semi-modular nature of the S4 allows for up to three CSMs to be used in a configuration, which totals up to a 24 fader design.

  • Avid S4 Knob Module

    S4 Knob

    Adjust and Edit

    As an essential element of any S4 configuration, the Attention Knob Module gives users the ability to adjust and edit any number of parameters via eight strips of four top-lit knobs.

  • Avid S4 Display Module

    S4 Display

    Monitor Essentials

    Acting as your visual guide to mixing, the Avid S4 Display Module is a high-resolution TFT display that can display channel names, meters, routing, Pro Tools waveforms, master meters and more.
