New V4.7 Software for Harman's Studer Vista Consoles Brings Graphic EQ to all Channels

The latest release of software for Harman's Studer Vista digital consoles brings 30-band graphic EQ functionality to all channels on the desk, whether they are inputs, busses, or outputs, in addition to the existing full four-band parametric equalisation.

Assignment and selection of the graphic EQ is via the Vistonics touch screen, and the control of the frequency bands is then placed on the channel faders, or via the rotary controls in the Vistonics section.

On Vista 9 consoles, the FaderGlow illuminates red when the faders are used for Graphic EQ, with the channel name screens indicating the band's frequency. The start band can be placed at any suitable fader position on the console for convenient user location.

A combined EQ curve is also displayed in the Vistonics section.

The software is available as an upgrade for all Studer Vista consoles which utilise the SCore Live DSP core, and is dependant on DSP configuration.

Other new products from Studer at shown NAB include the new Studer Vista 1 compact mixing console, Vista compact remote bay, Vista FX Lexicon engine, RTW TM7 metering option for Vista consoles, integral Ember control protocol, and an Axia Livewire AoIP card for the D21m system.
