Artist Transport User Guide

All Surfaces
All Surfaces
shows all Artist Series controllers on the network. A device shown in light gray is already connected either to your
own or another instance of EuControl running on a different workstation. In both cases, it is not selectable.
My Surfaces
My Surfaces
shows the Artist Series controllers connected to your instance of EuControl. There can be one Artist Control, one Art-
ist Transport, and up to four Artist Mixes in the My Surfaces list, linked into a single large surface.
The top-to-bottom order corresponds to the left-to-right order of the surfaces, respectively. The leftmost surface has fader strip 1.
Use the up and down buttons to reorder the list.
Each Artist media controller can be renamed by double-clicking the existing name and typing a new name.
Add
Click
Add
to add the selected All Surfaces entry to My Surfaces. This connects this Artist media controller to your instance of
EuControl. You can also click and drag an Artist media controller from All Surfaces to My Surfaces.
Add
is disabled if all Artist media controllers in All Surfaces are connected to any instance of EuControl.
Remove
Click
Remove
to remove the selected surface from My Surfaces and make it available to other instances of EuControl.
Remove
is disabled if no surface is selected.
Automatically Add
The
Automatically Add
menu has two settings that control what happens to stored Surfaces between shutdown and startup.
All Surfaces (Default)
Best used when you are the only person running EuControl in your home or studio. It provides an easy
plug-and-play experience by automatically adding your All Surfaces list to your My Surfaces list so you never have to manually
edit the My Surfaces list.
My Surfaces Only
Useful in facilities where other EuControl users are on your network. When EuControl starts, only the surfaces
from your My Surfaces list are added. Because a surface can only be claimed by one user at a time, this avoids claiming another
user’s controller.
Update Firmware
Each time a new version of EuControl is installed, each Artist Transport, Artist Control, and Artist Mix in your system may need
its firmware updated. The firmware is embedded in EuControl so an Internet connection is not required.
To update firmware:
1
Select each Artist Series controller in the
My Surfaces
list (Shift-click to select multiple devices).
2
Press
Update Firmware
to update their firmware. If a dialog displays a message that the firmware is up to date, no further action
is necessary.
3
Follow the instructions in the EuControl dialog box.
• The Artist media controllers must be plugged into a working power source.
• Do not power off any Artist media controllers during the update or attempt to interrupt the update.
• The status for each Artist media controller being updated is displayed on that device as well as in the EuControl dialog box.
Show Info
Select an Artist Series controller and click
Show Info
to display the name and hardware/software information for Artist Transport
on-screen.
