New! Taking control of Aaton Digital’s CantarX3 and CantarMini with Elgato Stream Deck
Starting with firmware version 3.500.C1 or higher, the Aaton-Digital CantarX3 and CantarMini sound recorder-mixers integrate a new level of control with 15 LCD keys giving access to more than 600 self-explanatory graphical buttons, addressing, with effectively laid-out profiles, each and every menu and function key of both recorders.
Install this new fee based license to open a whole new way of using your Cantar with quick and easy access to tasks that may have required two or more selections or operations using the embedded controls.
No setup needed, simply plug Stream Deck onto one of the USB ports and enjoy a refreshing and colorful interface. Compatible with the original Stream Deck (model 20GAA9902) and Stream Deck MK.2

How it works
Aaton Digital custom designed icons for all 15 LCD buttons of the Stream Deck allowing you to trigger any action in your recorder that would be associated with a function key.
Key combinations are now reduced to one single push of a button while access to your ingrid or outmap menus, among other menus, has been simplified with a single lay out.
And since the buttons are LCD and therefore inherently backlit, you'll be able to use your controller even in the sometimes uncertain lighting conditions of the film set.

X3 Little brother
Our aim during the development of the CantarMini was : to make a small CantarX3 with half of the inputs, half of the weight and half of the price but with same qualityof microphone preamplifiers, same functionalities, same graphic interface andthe same software richness.
Working is easier
With its 4 microphone inputs, 2 line inputs and 2 AES42 pairs, resulting in a considerably smaller volume and a more lightweight unit - just 2.8Kg with 2 batteries on board - almost half the weight of the X3, it is ideal for shoulder work.
Always more possibilities
Like the X3, the Mini also has the indispensable tilting display, it uses the same batteries, and is compatible with the add-on mixer panel Cantarem2. Recording is done simultaneously on an internal M2-Sata SSD and two SD cards. Works with two pluggable batteries using smart battery technology.
Of course, most of the software comes across also from the well-developed CantarX3 software.
