Propellerhead Balance
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Product Design / Consumer Product Design / 2012
This product brings iconic software brand, Propellerhead, into the real world, and establishes design assets for future hardware products. ‘Balance’ is a two-in/two-out audio interface for recording and playback. Interaction faces the user on the top-side instead of the common short-side. With colour-coded inputs for all the gear, instruments are always connected and ready to record. An equally large knob for speakers and headphones acknowledges that music makers of today are as likely to create on their laptop with headphones on, as on a dedicated workstation.
