I have now returned from IBC where we were showing our new TFT based remotes. The new TFT Monitor Remote generated some interest.
Using an embedded processor the unit communicates directly with XMon via Midi. and controls the full functionality of XMon. No other computer is required. The remote is fitted with a talk-back microphone and headphone jack and uses the same 15 pin connector as XMon. A GPI port is provided for Hardware Mute, foot switch input and PFL/AFL switching.
The USB connector provides power and allows for software updates. The USB Midi connected to Protools or any MTC source can be used for Auto-Talkback (or even a Timecode display).
The 4.3" TFT display is fitted with a touch screen in case required for the future, the XMon interface does not use touch.
For the future
we are designing a digital audio monitor system that will use the same remote, We are also looking at other applications using the same technology, one suggestion is as a digital microphone remote.
The photograph below is of the prototype unit and a selection of un-retouched displays.

Designed originally as a remote for XMon CB plan to interface to other monitor systems including our own digital unit. There are 4 easily accessible main screens arranged in pairs and include: Input/output selection, Meters/Solo, Cue selection and gain, Talkback/Listen Gain.
