Why Buy Through VK

S6 configuration is half the battle.

The S6 is the most flexible surface Avid makes — which means it is also the easiest to mis-configure. VK's Avid specialists pre-build, EUCON-test, and burn-in every system before it ships.

Trade your old Avid surface against your new S6. Most S6 buyers qualify for VK Credit Card financing.

"VK pre-configured the S6 for our workflow before it shipped. We were mixing on it the day it landed."

FAQ

Common S6 questions.

How is the S6 different from the S4?
The S6 has more channel knobs per strip, more display options, and supports much larger configurations (up to 64 faders). The S4 is a more compact, more affordable EUCON surface. Both share the EUCON platform.
Can I configure an S6 for Atmos?
Yes. The S6 master section supports the joystick module, monitoring section, and immersive bus configuration needed for full Atmos workflows.
How long does an S6 install take?
Pre-configuration takes 1 — 2 weeks. On-site install is typically 2 — 4 days for a 32-fader system. VK handles full install and EUCON commissioning.
What's the largest S6 you've installed?
VK has installed S6 systems up to 64 faders for multi-room commercial facilities. Talk to us about custom configurations.
