Vista. A current version of the manual is available at jands.com/support-vista-

If you’ve seen any of the digital editing software packages for sound and video
that are available these days, the most different aspect of the Vista, the timeline,
will be instantly familiar to you. If not, don’t worry, once you start using it you’ll
pick it up very quickly.
The Vista is different, but that’s what makes it so much easier to use. Once
you’ve read this guide you’ll have enough of an idea of how this console works
to create your first lightshow.
So don’t worry, the Vista has a lot in common with other consoles – we’ve taken
all the best elements of existing consoles and added a whole new dimension to
them. You’ll soon be right at home with the Vista.
Lets say you’ve programmed a show using one brand of fixture but need to
replace some of them with a different kind. Normally this would be a major
hassle because you’d have to find a similar fixture then re-program each and
every cue.
With the Vista, you can replace a fixture and you don’t have to do any re-
programming. Why? Because everything you’ve programmed is stored in
generic form rather than as specific DMX channel values. For instance if you’ve
programmed the lights to be red, the Vista can send that information to any light
and achieve the same colour.
Sure, if you replace a fixture that has colour mixing with a fixture that has a fixed
colour wheel, you won’t expect to get the exact same result, but even in this case,
the Vista will adapt and provide as near a match as the replacement fixture is
capable of.
