What is a "Dual Layer" Mixing Console?

The Focusrite Control 2802 combines both a recording console and a DAW controller into a single device. By toggling the "DAW" button on the device on and off, you can instantly switch between controlling the analogue audio channels on the 2802, and controlling the mixer channels in your DAW via the device's Ethernet connection.
