Capture dynamic motion shots and control your Waterbird multi-slider with precision using the PHOENIX Joystick Motion Controller from Waterbird. The wired controller employs a convenient and user-friendly joystick to accurately control movement and direction. Ramp and speed functions, together with multiple position presets and settings for Ping Pong mode and pause time enable your slider to move exactly as you had envisioned for your specific project.
The PHOENIX is compatible with the MS PRO, MS SWIFT S/X, and MS XL MKII and can save up to four preset positions. While there is a free Waterbird app that assists with basic slider functions, the PHOENIX enhances your overall production value with far more control and versatility. Connect the controller to your slider via the 4-pin XLR connector to send both power and data information. External 24-32V power may also be brought in using a separate 4-pin XLR input connector compatible with the 24V power supply. You can also power the controller using a 12V power brick using the standard barrel connector. Two 1/4" ports provide connectivity for two optional Waterbird PHOENIX Foot Pedal controllers, and a monochrome LCD screen provides important status information on multiple controller functions.
