Gio also includes two articulating 12.1-inch LCD multi-touch displays, allowing the screens to be positioned flat for shipping and angled for programming according to user preferences. Whether a programmer is sitting or standing, the view is adjustable to his or her sightline and comfort. Gio also supports up to three high-density external displays – all of which can be multi-touch, speeding up programming by putting navigation and more control at the user’s fingertips.
Fully networked with ETC’s ACN-based Net3, Gio can act as a primary console, a synchronized back-up or a client integrated within an Eos or an Ion system. Offline and client programming is available on PC (Windows 7 or XP) and Macintosh (OS X Intel). Up to 12 online users can split up the workload by accessing the same show file simultaneously.
Gio can accept shows imported from ETC’s Obsession, Express, Expression, Emphasis, and Congo, as well as the Strand 500/300-series show files via ASCII. All Eos and Ion accessories work with Gio.
