In order to be prepared for Dolby Atmos and Auro 3D projects in addition to simple mastering requests, SPL offers the MC16 monitor controller with up to 16 channels. Mastering with so many levels of the same quality as stereo monitoring has not been possible so far, which is why this controller represents a major step in development. The world's first 16-level precision potentiometer for SPL was specially developed for this purpose. To integrate multi-channel monitoring seamlessly into the stereo mastering environment, the MC16 can be coupled with the DMC stereo mastering console. The combination of both allows the mastering engineer to work with all current audio formats in the highest quality without having to switch the speakers.
