Overview
The Tangent WAVE Control Panel offers a comprehensive range of controls on a single panel at an affordable price. A mouse (or pen and tablet) is not always the fastest or easiest way to use your color grading software. The Wave provides tangible, tactile controls as a practical and ergonomic alternative to more traditional interface types.
Affordable Technology
With the Wave, Tangent Devices brings a new level of affordability and quality to control surfaces. The design draws heavily on the experience gained from Tangent's highly successful CP100 and CP200 panels. It is important to note that the Wave is not intended to replace these panels, but rather brings professional grading surfaces within reach of every user.
Ergonomic Design
Stylish enough to look good in any grading suite and compact enough to be used for on-set grading, you'll find all the controls you might expect from a color grading panel without compromising on essential ergonomics. The wave features crisp, easy to read, ice-white OLED displays and custom trackerball units based on a non-contacting optical pickup. With enough buttons and knobs to keep your most needed controls at your fingertips, the Wave will increase your productivity and creative potential.
