PC or MAC computers can use the Ethernet tunnel in the MidasNET system, and can
communicate with other computers on the network.
The PRO6 Control Centre features an external video for both screens, and the master
bay GUI screen (on the right) also has a three-way KVM switch. Control centre views
can be routed to external monitors, and external video sources can be displayed on the
control centre.
The KVM switch facilitates the control of three external computers via the screen,
trackball and keyboard of the control centre. This is hugely important and means that
third party systems can be controlled from within the PRO6 without having to move
your head to look at screens placed off to one side. It also means that there is no need
to find somewhere to put multiple keyboards and mice. Examples are:
• Netmax (AES/EBU audio link initially and CobraNet™ when the 48kHz I/O module is
available on PRO6).
• IRIS (for example, for RL amps).
• Wireless mic controllers.
• Your email.
• DVD movies.
