Two rows of buttons on the top of the control have 8 buttons for recorder selection, 8 buttons for player selection. Built-in remote control router allows multi deck work with 8 ports to control up to 8 HyperDecks.

Design is a blend of traditional decks and the HyperDeck Extreme. Buttons are available for rewind, fast forward, stop, play, record, eject, input, plus a pre-roll button for cueing the tape. Premium search dial for jog and shuttle and an electronic clutch stops the knob at the end of the shuttle travel or allows free spinning when in jog.
