PRO6 control surface
The control surface of the PRO6 Control Centre is divided into areas (see Figure 2)
whose function is, largely, dependent on bay location. Each bay has assorted control
elements with local feedback and/or support from the two centrally located GUI display
screens. The screens can be remoted via external VGA connections, and third party
systems can also be viewed/controlled via an integrated KVM switch on the rear panel.

A — input fast zone: 16 input fast
strips across the 12-channel and
4-channel input bays provide the
operator’s ‘must have now’ controls.
B — channel strip and mixes:
processing areas, such as the D-zone
(dynamic), E-zone (EQ) and mix controls,
provide a more comprehensive control by
allowing detailed adjustments to a single
channel’s audio parameters.
C — channel and bus navigation
zone: sections for channel and bus
navigation and selection. For details, see
Chapter 7 “Navigation”.
D — output fast zone: 16 output fast
strips can be used for mixing and
processing aux, return, matrix and
master channels. Navigation and flip
buttons are on the right of the output fast
strips.

and POP group sections.
F — miscellaneous: master channel
strips, A and B signal path monitoring,
communications, I-zone, surround
monitoring and mute groups.

trackballs for mix and master bay GUI
screen control, and a screen access panel
(between trackballs) for direct access to
GUI menu options.
