Audio Mixing Desk

Overview

Audio mixing desks often include graphical equalizers traditionally implemented via many LEDs to indicate signal amplitude across several frequency bands. Mixing desks can also include a variety of buttons to provide extra functionality to the user, this makes for a cluttered and hard to understand interface. However, designers are now embracing more vibrant graphical displays to implement these functionalities and to simplify the mixing desk interface for users.

Adding an EVE-enabled display can help improve the usability by:

• Help the designer optimise the screen layout without the limitations of LEDs and mechanical buttons.
• Use graphics to make the graphical equalizer more attractive and user friendly.
• Supporting graphical features such as manufacturers branding or customisation
• Create a more dynamic interface and increase functionality by using EVE’s touch capabilities.
