Introducing The Wave


A mouse, or pen and tablet is not always the fastest or easiest way to use your colour grading software. Wouldn’t it be better if you had something real to get a hold of? Well, the Wave allows you to do just that.

AffordableTechnology
With the Wave, Tangent bring a new level of affordability and quality to control surfaces. The design draws heavily on the experience gained from their highly successful CP100 and CP200 panel ranges. The Wave is not intended to replace these panels, it is just aimed at the more budget conscious user.

Superbly Designed

Stylish enough to look good in any grading suite and compact enough to be used for on-set grading, you'll find all the controls you'd expect from a colour grading panel without compromising on the essential ergonomics. The wave features crisp, easy to read, cool-blue OLED displays and custom tracker ball units based on a non-contacting optical pick-up. With enough buttons and knobs to keep your most needed controls at your fingertips, the Wave will increase your productivity, leaving you to get on with what you're best at doing - being creative!

CP200 series


The CP200 panels use proven high quality components. Some of these have their origins in the F1 motor racing and aerospace industries. The fascias are machined from a solid 12mm thick aluminium block giving the panel a strong, weighty feel that reinforces the overall quality. The displays are Vacuum Florescent Displays (VFD) which give a good contrast ratio and wide viewing angle, making them far superior to equivalent LCD or LED displays. All the control knobs are optical digital rotary encoders, giving a smooth high resolution response and a long life.
There are 4 panel types:

The CP200-BK, The CP200-TS, CP200-K and the CP200-S

CP200-BK:
used for primary colour grading with the addition of three knobs to control parameters such as pan/scan or basic secondary grading controls

CP200-TS:
used to provide the user with a familiar transport layout for controlling VTR like source and record decks. In many applications these will not be 'real' VTR's, but instead will be data files stored on a computer based storage system

CP200-K:
for users who require fingertip control of a large number of parameters, with each parameter having its own rotary control knob

CP200-S:
is designed to complete the set. It has 4 rows of 5 buttons, with display above each row. The displays can either label the function of the buttons or provide at-a-glance feedback
