M-Series—a true family

All shows can be moved between all consoles and M-PC, retaining everything including views made on any other systems. This allows you to take a large show made on the M6 and run it the next day with an M-PC with or without additional playback hardware.
Matthias Hinrichs, Product Manager – Controller Solutions, HARMAN Professional Solutions: “We spent a great amount of time listening and watching how our users work and want to interact with the M-Series consoles and software. This helped us realize that we can offer a better experience by streamlining access to important information at any time. Providing a smarter workflow was the inspiration behind this latest software release and lays the groundwork for exciting upcoming features we are currently developing."
