Gio

Need an energetic desk for a large touring show with a complex rig? Looking for a board that saves space in control rooms without scrimping on power? Want a desk compact enough to carry from the control booth to the tech table every day? ETC’s Gio® is an on-the-go road warrior in a tidy footprint that can handle shows of any size with ease. Boasting the programming capacity of the Eos Titanium (Eos Ti™) desk, Gio is ready to hit the road.

Gio has a fast, accessible control surface, with an easy-to-navigate backlit keypad. It includes two integral, articulating multi-touch displays and supports up to three external monitors, all of which can also be multi-touch.

Gio can integrate into an Eos Ti, Eos® or Ion® system with ease, acting as a primary, backup or client console in combination with the rest of the family. All of the accessories available for Ti, Eos and Ion service Gio as well. And the keypad layout is virtually identical to Ti, making moving between platforms a snap.
