Any advice on console organization

[HTSL]

Hi CB, I will be moving on to the new Avolites Quartz shortly (just ordered), this will be my first physical console. I've been using a pc software (Das Light Virtual Controller) for 2 years and I have downloaded the Avolites Titan Off line editor to get familiar with the software and functions. My question is moving from a simple software (no playback faders, just "execution buttons") are there any helpful things to know when using a physical board like organizing pallets and stuff like that. I will be doing a ton of busking and just "on the fly" kind of stuff. Is there any advice on being organized and how to get the best out of the console for busking. I will be using 8-20 moving heads, few conventional, and a ton of par 64 leds.

Thanks!

Hi and congrats on your new desk. I am a big Avolites fan and have been using Titan Mobile and Sapphires a lot recently. My friend Rob Sayer has some very useful guides over on his website - have a look at this one and check out what else he has there too. Its quite a valuable resource.

Do the training... if you can't get to a dealer, do the 'webinars' that Avo host on their site.
