Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the C control, Control Room Matrix by Samson Audio! The C control is a
compact, high-quality device that provides the extensive control room monitoring features previously only
found in expensive large format recording consoles. The C control is the perfect solution for interfacing all
your stereo line sources including mixers, hard-disk recorders, 2-tracks, along with multiple sets control room
monitors. The C control provides four sets of stereo line inputs, a headphone amplifier with level control and
switching for three sets of control room monitors. The C control also provides a sophisticated Talkback section,
which includes an internal condenser microphone with the ability to route the Talkback signal to the 2-Track
outputs and to the External Que for headphones. Providing silent switching and superb audio fidelity, the C
control's signal path will impress the most critical listeners.
Although this unit is designed for easy operation, we suggest you take some time out first to go through
