Abstract: A mixing console including a plurality of audio inputs and a plurality of audio processing channels. Control data is received from a microphone which is connected to a given audio input to provide audio data. The control data includes an indication of an audio source associated with a microphone. A router of the mixing console is configured to route the audio data from the given audio input to a given audio processing channel based on the received indication of the audio source.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mixing console which comprises an input unit configured to receive at least one audio signal channel; a first display configured to display audio signal channel related information; a plurality of control elements configured to control at least one signal characteristic of the at least one audio signal channel, wherein the first display and the plurality of control elements are located on a first surface area of the mixing console. The mixing console furthermore comprises at least one connecting element provided on the first surface area; a touch-sensitive display comprising at least one support element which interacts with the at least one connecting element to removably connect the touch-sensitive display to the first surface area, wherein the at least one connecting element is located on the first surface area in such a way that the touch-sensitive display covers a part of the first surface area when it is connected to the first surface area.

Abstract: An input device and methods for detecting user input using an input device. An example input device includes a multi-touch sensing display configured to detect multiple simultaneous triggers on a surface of the multi-touch sensing display as distinct input events. The input device also includes at least one mechanical control element arranged on the surface of the multi-touch sensing display. The at least one mechanical control element is configured to generate an input event. The input event is detected by the multi-touch sensing display in response to actuation of the at least one mechanical control element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a slide control for an audio mixer, whereby a slide can be displaced along a defined path in a slit-shaped opening in a front plate. The aim of the invention is to create one such slide control that clearly indicates the function it is carrying out or the parameters it can influence by its position. To this end, an illuminable element is provided, said element extending along the opening.
