Show control refers to the control of multiple pieces of audio visual equipment. As shows become more complex, it is necessary to synchronize and automate devices for maximum impact to the audience. For the Ernst & Young International Partner Meeting, Evergreen Creative used Dataton to control six Doremi V1D digital video servers, a digital video switcher, two Versatility Computers (Versatile and Versatube), two beta decks, 2 High-Def beta decks, and 6 video projectors.

There are several options for show control including Dataton, VTQlist, InstantQ, and AppCenter (for the new Grass Valley Turbo iDDRs).
