Yamaha CC1

The Yamaha CC1 is for creators who want to work faster and more comfortably. It's designed for music production, mixing, podcasting, streaming and hybrid live setups.

Features

100 mm motorized fader for precise, natural control

Mix and automate with greater finesse. The touch-sensitive motorized fader follows your automations and reflects the real state of your project. In mixing or post-production, you gain precision and comfort, without relying solely on the mouse.

Assignable LCD buttons for your key controls

Instant access to the functions you need. The 12 customizable LCD keys clearly display their actions. Multiple banks let you adapt the controller to each project, DAW or application, without getting lost in the menus.

Push & Turn encoders for fast, fine-tuned settings

Adjust your parameters with precision. The 4 encoders let you modify volumes, panning, effects or plug-ins in a single gesture. Press, turn and confirm: settings are more fluid and intuitive than on-screen.

AI button for intelligent access to essential parameters

You work faster. The AI button detects and highlights key parameters according to context. In production or mixing, you go straight to the essentials, without having to search for the right track or plugin.

Advanced customization to suit your workflow

You configure the CC1 according to your habits. Dedicated software lets you assign commands, macros and shortcuts. Compatibility with the Stream Deck ecosystem opens up even more possibilities for centralizing your actions.

Stream integration and control of various applications

You control much more than a DAW. Integration with Elgato and OBS Studio facilitates streaming and podcasting. You can control scenes, sources or audio levels from a single controller, without multiplying peripherals.
