Chapter 32: GUI Menu

The GUI is a very powerful multi-functional tool that forms the core of the PRO Series
Control Centre. It gives you total control and monitoring of the operating environment,
enhances control surface operation (you can even operate the PRO Series by GUI-only)
and allows the use of internal and external devices. To facilitate this the GUI
incorporates a simple-to-use GUI menu.
The GUI menu presents you with a list of options from which to choose, depending on
your requirement. The following lists some of the functions that the GUI menu
provides:
• Configuration
channels, groups, graphic EQs and internal effects, set up for multi-console
operation, set up the connected devices etc.
• Navigation Select the channels, buses and groups you want, go quickly to a GUI
screen display, go to recently opened screens, move through the scenes in a show
and go to the patching screens you want.

• User and operating preferences Adjust GUI screen brightness and contrast,

• Overcoming a faulty GUI screen Should a GUI screen fail, you can re-map it to
a different bay.
