September 2004 The revolution has started.
Tiller + Tiller and smartAV have created “The Smart Console™”, the first mixing control surface incorporating patented ARC technologyTM.

The smart consoles are a new breed that seriously raise the bar of ergonomic efficiency associated with mixing and editing large numbers of channels. ARC Technology uses a physical ARC to present and unify the functions of interrogation and channel selection. Simply touch the strip, the desired channel and the channels surrounding it immediately appear in front of the operator, as though he/she had instantaneously moved in front of those channels on a traditional long console. With this single touch, 800 previously out of reach controls snap to within reach. Even the handwritten channel description is transferred to the strips in front of you.

“We have had a strong history in the console industry and have worked feverishly with smartAV to create the smart consoles. It is immensely exciting and rewarding to be part of a revolution in this industry.
