Although Harman’s Studer Compact Remote Bay portable controller isn’t much bigger than a laptop, it has 12 motorized Penny & Giles faders and 40 rotary controls which link to a 19-inch touch-screen running Studer’s Virtual Vista software. This emulates the console’s Vistonics user interface.
Along with remote operation, the Compact Remote Bay may also be used to extend the main control surface for a second operator on large shows. It can also be used as a standalone controller for the Vista’s DSP core should the control surface not be available, with the provision of connections for local 5.1 monitoring and a headphone output.
For portability and transit protection, the screen folds down over the control surface.
