Logo for AirFader - audio control software

AirFader

A software developer turned audio engineer for six years, I finally found a need that could be solved only with my own software. I think I should share it.

This is probably only useful to sound guys with digital mixers. And oh my gosh is it useful. The target audience is very specific, highly technical and artistic, and were already willing to trade in their comfortable analog mixers for the flexibility and features of digital control.

.PSD... Otherwise, have at it!

Optional slogan: "Mix freely"

I've attached a screen shot of the main control screen. This is literally a virtual sound board, it's designed to control motorized sliders on digital sound boards. As such, some iconery based on the LS9-32, M7CL, PM5D... or any mixer at all (digital or analog) might work.

The color scheme is a bit flexible but in live sound, you see lots of dark dark gray backgrounds (approx #333333), and whites, with sprinkles of bold color. I will probably steer the website design and/or even the final software colors to match YOUR logo... but the screenshot is a good start. Something that looks good on both a dark and white background (for print) would be ideal.

This product is a utility designed to do a job, it's not just eye candy... but a little silly/cartoony/edgy is not a bad thing. Think Flying Toaster. The product can be used wirelessly around a venue and is all about freeing the user from the traditional interface... like mixing on air. AirFader.

And seriously - thank you in advance to everyone who participates, I will do my best to give constructive feedback for your efforts.
