FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
SETTING UP THE VERTIGE™ & CONFIGURING A SHOW
1- Touch screen
The 15’’6 wide touchscreen comfortably displays on
the same page the representation of the Program
& Preview of a typical scene (Blend + 2 satellites).
The representation of the whole scene will allow you
to work on multiple layers from different screens at
the same time (to change background sources, for
example). The representation of both Program &
Preview states will allow you to switch presets at any
time (even during an effect) like with the
LiveCore™
series
.
2- Preset section
This section allows you to save and load your
scene presets. 10 preset keys and a page browsing
mechanism allows you to organize and access up to
100 presets.
3- Layer section
This section allows you to select layers in different
screens and edit them simultaneously. Multiple layer/
screen criteria can be used to perform advanced
layer selections.
4- Source section
This section allows you to assign sources to the
selected layers on Program or Preview. 12 source
keys and a page browsing mechanism allows you to
organize and access up to 120 sources. The name of
a source will be displayed on the corresponding LCD
key.
5- Control section
This section allows you to select the preset to work
with (Program or Preview), and apply basic functions
to all selected layers (like Freeze, Clear, Unify...).
6- Edit section
This section allows you to edit the selected layers in
three different ways: roughly via the joystick, finely
via the encoders or directly via the numpad. With
its 12 contextual LCD keys, the block displaying the
numpad (the
EDIT pad
) also provides access to a
variety of edit tools such as pages of shortcuts, layer
presets and macros.
7- Transition section
This section allows you to use the T-Bar for a smooth
transition effect between presets. The individual,
motorized sliders can be used to transition individual
screens, and they show the current state of the
screen.
8- Control Transition
This section allows you to take all your active screens
and control the transition time globally.
You can also enable the
CUE SEQUENCE
button to
control the cue sequence playback (play, next step,
stop ...).
