A Type R surface is made up using a combination of 3 panel types:

• Type R 6-wide Fader Panel (IM6413)
• Type R Large Soft Panel (MU6411)
  
• Type R Small Soft Panel (MU6410)
  

Fader panels are put together in multiples, to form different surface sizes as required.

Each panel features 6 x 100mm motorised faders, and each of these faders has: 4 large user definable buttons, a dedicated 96x96 pixel TFT display for fader status information and at the top of each fader are 2 user buttons, a rotary control with integrated push switch and another 96x96 pixel TFT display to show a range of user definable controls such as mic gain, trim etc.

Note that each fader can access two layers described as Layer A and Layer B, this can be switched from a user definable button.

A Cat5e connector on the rear edge of the panel provides both power and data connections.
