CTR2-Dial – w/ New Age Enclosure

$95.00

CTR2-Dial is a Bluetooth and USB MIDI touchscreen controller that is compatible with radio control apps such as Marcus’ (DL8MRE) excellent iOS/MacOS radio control apps, Remote Ham Radio, Thetis, SDR-Console, and many other radio control programs that support MIDI control.

When used with a MIDI translator app such as CoyoteMIDI, CTR2-Dial can be used as a frequency control knob for SmartSDR for Windows and any other Windows or Mac radio control programs like wfView or WebSDR that accept mouse scrolls or keystrokes for frequency control. You can even use it with non-radio control programs that accept mouse scrolls or keystrokes for control, like Audacity. You can find out more on this post.

This model uses a commercial, injection-molded, CNC milled, New Age enclosure to house the CTR2-Dial components. The design allows you to configure the unit in four configurations as seen in the photo gallery. Simply move the tilt legs to the side you want elevated and use the Rotate Display option in the Settings menu to rotate the display. Two additional flat feet are provided if you just want to set the unit flat on your desk.

An alternate enclosure has been designed by Neil, G7UFO. It is a 3D printed enclosure that gives CTR2-Dial a unique, custom look. You can order a CTR2-Dial in the 3D enclosure here. Neil also sells CTR2-Dial’s in his enclosure in his shop so if you’re in the UK or EU he can save you shipping costs.

I have a limited number of 32mm silver aluminum knobs available (ordering error). Let me know in the Order Notes if you would like a silver knob on the single encoder model instead of the black knob shown in the photos.
