Compatible out-of-the-box with major software like DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro via Tangent Hub, Ripple supports customizable layouts through Tangent Mapper and can be expanded with Element series panels. Its portability and professional-grade precision make it an ideal entry-level tool for on-the-go creatives. ## Description Getting in touch with your software has never been more affordable. Ripple is Tangent’s new entry level panel with a price-tag to match. Designed for the occasional colourist, editor, and student, Ripple provides the essential three-way trackerball controls to speed up primary grading. Its small footprint means it sits comfortably beside your keyboard, mouse and tablet. Like all Tangent panels, Ripple is supported by the Tangent Mapper which means many applications will allow you to customise control layouts or build your own from scratch. Ripple is automatically supported by all applications which support the Tangent Hub which means that it should work right out of the box e.g. Resolve, Nucoda, SCRATCH, SpeedGrade, Premiere Pro etc. Ripple can also be combined with any panels from the Element range (including the element-Vs tablet app) so you can easily expand the functionality of your Tangent setup. Review: Couplé avec DaVinci Resolve, cette surface accessible permet de faire des merveilles en un rien de temps. C'est cependant très limité aux primaries & log (Wheels) du software et les boutons ne sont pas customizables, un choix de Black Magic de limiter l'accès aux surfaces externes surtout bas marché. Pour d'autres logiciels (type Premiere) l'utilisation est beaucoup plus large et ravira les amateurs d'étalonnage. Attention cependant les boules ne sont pas fixées et tombent très facilement lorsque l'on manipule la tablette, rien de grave mais tout de même à noter pour certains. Son grand avantage en revanche c'est sa portabilité qui rendra heureux les grands voyageurs nécessitant un outil rapide et professionnel partout où ils vont. J'enlève une étoile car malgré le fait que ce soit du solide, j'ai peur que la tablette ne soit pas à l'épreuve du temps si l'on voyage avec et aussi pour le manque de customisation global mais bon, pour le prix il n'y a pas de quoi vraiment se plaindre ! Review: De plástico bastante resistente. Las bolas podrían tener un mecanismo de sujeción para que no se caigan si lo mueves. ## Features - 3 trackerballs with dials for masters - High resolution optical pick-ups for the balls and dials - USB powered with integral cable - Light weight & compact size ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01EYZO01Q | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Brand | tangent | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars (51) | | Date First Available | 19 March 2021 | | Hardware Platform | Tablet | | Item Weight | 600 g | | Item model number | FBA_RIPPLE | | Manufacturer | tangent | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 32.5 x 14.8 x 5.2 cm; 600 g | | Series | FBA_RIPPLE | ## Product Details - **Brand:** tangent - **Compatible devices:** Tablet - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Controller type:** Keyboard - **Model name:** FBA_RIPPLE ## Images ![Tangent Ripple Grading Panel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XpA9rp-EL.jpg) ![Tangent Ripple Grading Panel - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/814bYW+eS2L.jpg) ![Tangent Ripple Grading Panel - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819Eafq-VlL.jpg) ![Tangent Ripple Grading Panel - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81PCYo7fGrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Product Packaging** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: what is this?** A: It is a color grading control surface for use with software such as DaViinci resolve to speed up the color grading process. **Q: How is this worth the price tag when a single trackball would do the same thing for much less, and you just toggle between the three logical controls?** A: There is a World of Difference between using the Tangent Ripple Vs. a single tracker ball when completing White Balance, Lift-Gamma-Gain and Color grading. One Tracker ball will not suffice or compare when actually doing the work. **Q: Does this work well with final cut X** A: Most FCPX users of this board use the Color Finale plugin (from ColorGradingCentral.com) to drive it. Color Finale provides a more industry-standard color-grading interface (three color wheels and sliders) for FCPX. Ripple Training has a video on using the Tangent Ripple with Color Finale in FCPX: http://www.rippletraining.com/articles/2016/08/02/grading-tangent-ripple-final-cut-pro-x/ **Q: Does it work with adobe premiere on the mac? Specifically the lumetri color correction effect?** A: It does work in Lumetri in Premiere Pro. I can control up to six parameters with a sweep of the palm or fingers (the three Track Balls and the three Scroll Wheels). ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***Y on 15 February 2018* Couplé avec DaVinci Resolve, cette surface accessible permet de faire des merveilles en un rien de temps.

Las bolas podrían tener un mecanismo de sujeción para que no se caigan si lo mueves. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***N on 13 September 2018* I use this with FCPX's Color Finale Pro plugin. Works pretty well, in general. Sometimes it is sluggish in response time, but that is most likely my computer (MacBook Pro 13" 2017 2.0 ghz with 8 gb ram). Since I am starting to take color correction seriously, this is a must to speed things up. Now it is apparently compatible with FCPX 10.4 and its Color Wheels, but I have not tried this yet. Should also work fine in Premiere and Da Vinci. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tangent Ripple Grading Panel - ELEGOO PLA Filament 1.75mm Gray 1KG, 3D Printer Filament Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm, 1kg Cardboard Spool(2.2lbs) 3D Printing Filament Fits for Most FDM 3D Printers - ELEGOO PLA Plus Filament 1.75mm Black 1KG, PLA+ Tougher and Stronger 3D Printer Filament Pro Dimensional Accuracy +/- 0.02mm, 1kg Spool(2.2lbs) Fits for Most FDM 3D Printers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/386617512-tangent-ripple-grading-panel](https://www.desertcart.de/products/386617512-tangent-ripple-grading-panel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
