Screens
Avantis has two screens, both showing channel processing, bank overview, system setup & status, memory
management menus and more.
Each touchscreen integrates with a trio of user-configurable soft rotaries in addition to a Touch & Turn rotary
control for quick and easy parameter modification.
Both screens operate independently of each other so, for example, two discrete channel processing
screens can be visible simultaneously, or processing can be visible on one screen with IO patching visible
on the other.
