Key Features
The Intech Studio Grid Series 3 EF44 Detent is a hybrid controller for producers, performers, and creative users who need precise hands-on control across multiple parameters. Combining four 60mm audio-grade linear faders with four redesigned metal encoders featuring tactile 20-detent rotation and push-switch functionality, it provides a versatile platform for controlling effects, modulation, panning, automation, and more.
Product Ref: 380554
The EF44 Detent combines smooth fader operation with precise stepped encoder control, making it suitable for tasks that require both accuracy and speed. The four metal encoders feature tactile 20-detent rotation, helping you make deliberate adjustments when controlling plugin parameters, panning, effects, or performance settings.
Integrated push switches add another layer of functionality without increasing the controller's footprint. Alongside them, the 60mm audio-grade faders provide smooth movement for automation, volume balancing, modulation control, and other continuous parameters.
Each encoder includes a multicolour LED ring that can be customised within the Grid Editor software. Assign colours to specific functions, adjust brightness levels, or create pulsing animations to improve workflow organisation and visibility.
This visual feedback helps distinguish controls quickly, especially when working across multiple profiles or in low-light environments. The lighting system also makes larger Grid setups easier to navigate by providing clear visual separation between different functions and controller layers.
The magnetic connection system allows the EF44 Detent to integrate seamlessly with other Grid modules, creating controller layouts tailored to your workspace. Gold-pin side connections support reliable communication between modules, while the Grid Editor automatically updates to reflect physical layout changes. Four onboard profile pages can be stored directly on the device and accessed using the side-mounted page button, making it easy to switch between different projects, software setups, or performance configurations.
The Grid Editor software provides detailed configuration options across macOS, Windows, Linux, and supported mobile platforms. You can create MIDI CC mappings, customise LED behaviour, and save profiles directly to the hardware for use away from your computer.
Support for MIDI, HID keyboard, mouse, and game controller protocols extends functionality beyond music production into broader creative applications. For users who want even greater flexibility, Lua scripting enables advanced control schemes, custom macros, sequencer functions, and specialised workflows tailored to individual needs.
