Intech studio Grid Series 3 - TEK2 Mechanical

The Intech Studio TEK2 Mechanical – Grid Series 3 is the latest version of the renowned TEK2 control module. It retains its intuitive interface—featuring two endless jog wheels and eight mechanical keys—while benefiting from significant improvements in tactile feel, visual feedback, and durability.

The eight keys now feature Gateron Hall Effect MX switches that are sensitive to both travel and pressure. This delivers highly dynamic and responsive control, making the unit suitable for music production, video editing, graphic design, and live performance alike.

Each key features individual RGB backlighting that is clearly visible through the cut-out keycaps. The keys are also hot-swappable; by removing the faceplate, you can replace them to customize the feel, layout, or labeling of the controls to suit your workflow.

The two high-resolution jog wheels offer smooth, continuous rotation and include an integrated push function. They are encircled by five-color LED rings, providing immediate visual feedback on the parameters being controlled. A central 5-bit display rounds out the design, allowing you to view center positions or specific parameter values.

The new textured fiberglass faceplate improves grip while enhancing the controller's overall durability.

Thanks to the Grid modular system, multiple controllers can be magnetically connected in various configurations to create a personalized, scalable control surface. Applications

The TEK2 Mechanical can be used in a wide range of creative environments:

Video editing: timeline navigation, scrubbing, cutting, zooming, and parameter control in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve
Photo editing: brush size adjustment, exposure, tool switching, and parameter control in Photoshop or Lightroom
Music production: controlling macros, volumes, effect sends, and plug-in parameters, or triggering clips in DAWs like Ableton Live or Logic Pro
Live performance / VJing: triggering presets, switching layers, and controlling effects in real-time
