Chapter 5. Eucontrol; Surfaces - Avid Technology Artist Mix User Manual

Chapter 5: EuControl
EuControl is launched automatically upon starting your computer and runs in the background. EuControl is responsible for find-
ing, linking, and communicating with all Artist media controllers on the network.
Accessing EuControl Settings
To open the EuControl Settings window:
Do one of the following:

• On Mac, click the EuControl icon on the taskbar and select EuControl Settings.
• On Windows, click the EuControl icon in the Task or System tray (Windows) and select EuControl Settings. Unused icons will
be shown in the Hidden icons view.
Only one instance (installation, or copy) of EuControl can run on a workstation. However, multiple workstations on a single net-
work can each run EuControl. Each EuControl-equipped workstation can connect one Artist Transport, one Artist Control, and
up to four Artist Mixes on the network. These multiple devices act together as a single control surface. Once connected, Artist Se-
ries media controllers are not available to EuControl on other systems until relinquished.
Some EuControl features pertain only to Artist Mix and Artist Control, not Artist Transport. These are called out at the beginning
of each of the following sections.

Surfaces

The Surfaces tab shows all Artist media controllers on your network and those connected to your instance of EuControl.
