Nothing should come between you and your tracks, including your computer mouse. Create faster and more intuitively than ever before.
New RAVEN 4.0 Control Software
The RAVEN 4.0 software interface has been completely redesigned to be more intuitive, powerful, and fast. Take unparalleled control over your DAW. Adjust any fader, knob, or software parameter with incredible precision on an interface that looks as good as it feels.
Faders Galore
Top producers know: faders are much more than just volume control, they're how you learn and interact with your mix on a deep, fundamental level. It's something you just can't experience with a keyboard and mouse. RAVEN takes you back to the future by transforming your DAW into the ultimate multi-touch mixing console.
Working on big projects with dozens of tracks? Not a problem. You can now have as few as 1 or as many as 32 high-precision virtual faders onscreen at the same time. RAVEN 4.0 gives you complete control over faders, pans, mutes, solos, sends, automation, and plug-in inserts. And for the most precise adjustments, enable Fine Fader mode for 0.1dB fader moves. Mix without limits.
Smart Multitouch Gestures
RAVEN 4.0 comes with a library of easy, intuitive gestures that work out of the box in every supported DAW. A simple movement of your hand can open and close plug-ins, mute and unmute multiple tracks, pinch zoom in and out, and edit audio and MIDI tracks. If you've ever used an iPhone, youll love the intuitive gestures of RAVEN 4.0.
Plug-ins Were Meant to be Touched
For years, producers have sought plugin versions of legendary outboard gear. RAVEN completes the journey by letting you adjust your plugins by directly touching them just like the original gear was meant to be touched. And when plugins become tactile, they become easier and more intuitive to use. You'll save hours as you learn to interact with your plugins the way they were intended by touch.
All-New Batch Commander
Steven Slate Audio completely rebuilt the Batch Commander so it's easier than ever to record and save your own multi-step macros to custom buttons and gestures. And they've even started you off with a massive library of Batch Commands for every supported DAW. Load complex plug-in chains, create multiple headphone sends, name multiple tracks, export stems, and automate complex audio and MIDI editing tasks using the power of Batch Commands. Get ready to save hundreds of hours a year by automating any multi-step process - inside or outside your DAW.
Easy Setup
Steven Slate Audio completely redesigned the user experience of RAVEN 4.0 to make it easy to get up and running. With batch commands and gestures included for every major DAW, RAVEN 4.0 was designed from the ground up for anyone to use, beginners or pros. Whatever your background or experience level, you'll be flying on RAVEN in minutes.

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
