Mapping

At it’s heart, Central Control is powerful show control system that allows you to connect any control surface to any device.  Studio contains our most powerful mapping engine yet, providing a visual representation of your control surfaces and a seamless drag and drop mapping paradigm.

Zones allow you to create sophistcated control mappings, dividing up sections of your control surface any way you please. Layer Zones provide paging of controls, while scroll zones allow control surfaces to be virtually extended either horizontally, vertically, or both! The zone can then be scrolled through using either a button or encoder control.

Intercom

Central Control features a fully featured comms system, with capacity for up to 64 users and unlimited party lines. Users can access the intercom from any device using the web client, or alternatively on Mac and Windows with dedicated desktop clients.  The server is hosted locally on your Central Control system, so the system can be used without any internet connection if required. Conversly, Central Control Relay makes onboarding over the public internet by simpling sending them a link.

The desktop client offers two key advantages over the web client. First, its remote control API enables tactile control of the Intercom Client through Central Control, Bitfocus Companion, and similar solutions. Second, the desktop client can run in bridge mode, making it easy to connect the intercom to traditional comms systems by bridging party lines over ASIO, Dante, NDI, and OMT, as well as any Mac or Windows compatible sound card.

WebPanel Pro

Build rich browser based control surfaces that can control all your favourite devices in Central Control. Start with a blank layout, and add Button Grids, Fader Panels, T-Bars, Joysticks and then arrange and resize them as needed. Central Control Connect support is built right in for adding live video previews from either Decklink or NDI sources to your layouts!
 

Flex Macros

Conventionally, macros in production involved a linear sequence of commands, each with manually assigned delays – an intricate and unintuitive process. With the introduction of Flex Macros, this process is simplified entirely.

Flex Macros utilize a timeline-based system, inspired by non-linear editing. Easily drag and drop commands onto the timeline to sequence them. Multiple tracks allow for parallel actions, and fader movements can be adjusted throughout a clip with various curve options. Intuitive and user-friendly, this system lets you fine-tune the timing of commands effortlessly.

Connect

Experience ultra-low latency video monitoring with Connect, supporting formats up to 4K60 over both LAN and WAN. Seamlessly integrate internal sources like production clocks and Teleprompters, alongside NDI, OMT, Decklink and DirectShow sources. By leveraging the GPU for encoding, Connect minimizes CPU load and supports multiple NVIDIA graphics cards for more streams.

Streams can be viewed by any web browser, making it viewable on phones, tablets, laptops, Smart TVs, and even VR headsets. Easily generate links or QR codes within the user interface for effortless client connections. Connect also supports Central Control Relay, making it easier to share your streams with anyone by simply sharing a link.

Rundown

Rundown lets users create show rundowns using familiar tools like Excel and Google Sheets, which are then seamlessly accessible within its interface. This ensures directors and producers have critical information, including detailed event durations and precise time tracking. GPU-rendered production clocks display the current time, countdowns to the next event, and elapsed time since the current event started, providing essential real-time insights.

Rundown Clock integrates with Central Control’s Triggers system for show automation based on rundown events, while also supporting manual tracking. This allows users to mix automated schedules with manual overrides for ultimate control. In the unpredictable world of live TV, this blend of precision and flexibility ensures easy adaptation to any situation.

Teleprompter

Create and edit scripts effortlessly using familiar tools like Microsoft Word or Google Docs – no need to learn new software. Central Control will automatically check your script for changes, ensuring you’re always up to date.

Create action lines, displayed in red on the prompter, and convert them into triggers to automate video playback, manage graphics, and even control the teleprompter itself.

Enjoy the flexibility of outputting the teleprompter to both fullscreen and NDI simultaneously and take full prompter control using any surface within Central Control.

NDI Router

Create powerful software video routers with dynamic crosspoint delegation, instant previews, and seamless source switching, all with Central Control’s signature flexibility. Recall entire router configurations instantly with presets, and take full control of your signal flow.
