Intech Studio Grid EF44 Smooth Encoder

EF44 Series 3: Full Control over Performance Effects, Modulation, and Panning

EF44 Series 3 gives you control over performance effects, modulation, panning, and more, with upgraded hardware and improved tactile options. It features audio-grade linear metal shaft faders and newly redesigned metal rotary encoders, available in both detent and smooth (non-stepped) variants, allowing you to choose the feel that best fits your workflow.

The fiberglass front panel with a textured finish adds durability and provides a solid grip, making it suitable for both studio and live use.

EF44 Series 3 supports MIDI CC mapping and integrates easily with your DAW or hardware setup. Each encoder is surrounded by a customizable multicolor LED indicator, allowing you to assign colors, adjust brightness levels, or add pulsing animations—all configurable through the Grid Editor. This makes it easier to identify and manage your controls, especially in low-light environments.

As with all Grid modules, EF44 Series 3 features magnetic side connections and golden pins, enabling flexible expansion and seamless pairing with other Grid controllers.
