Meet ScreenBuilder

ScreenBuilder is a virtual development suite of tools for creating virtual mixers and other touchscreens that tap directly into the WheatNet IP audio network as additions or updates to existing studios. Choose from controls, clocks, faders and dozens of other widgets, and apply basic scripting using Script Wizard for a variety of functions. Or add your own widgets and specialized scripts for even more customized touchscreens that can be used along with or in place of fixed hardware. If you can think it, you can build it with ScreenBuilder.

SCREENBUILDER

THERE'S NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT!
  • Pre-built widgets:  Dozens of pre-built widgets such as knobs, faders, timers, and meters to choose from, each with basic scripting. Drag-and-drop what you need, where you need it.
  • Integration with WheatNet IP: Taps into the WheatNet IP Intelligent Network for access and control of mics, codecs, levels, settings and any automation or other third-party system connected to the network.
  • Capture news, weather feeds. RSS news, sports and weather feeds can be added easily to any touchscreen.
  • Custom graphics and logic: Supports custom graphics and scripting for highly specific applications.
  • Smart associations: ScreenBuilder taps into WheatNet IP intelligence for querying a fader, for example, to find out its source as well as have that source automatically appear without having to manually identify and type in the source every time there’s a change.
  • Self automated: ScreenBuilder screens tie into logic anywhere in the WheatNet IP studio network to set up maintenance routines, check the status of tallies and establish emergency crosspoint connections based on if/then commands.
  • Remote accessible: Control your studio from any location with an internet connection through one secure screen. Create your own screens for cloud-based control and access now, and expand upon later.
  • Cost-effective: Adds onto and leverages existing WheatNet-IP infrastructure, eliminating the need for additional hardware.
  • User-friendly: Features a simple scripting wizard for easy interface creation and customization.
  • Versatile applications: Can be adapted for virtually any hardware, software or hybrid hardware/software application needed, providing limitless possibilities.
  • Secure: Password protected to secure custom panels and touchscreens.
  • Community supported through the Wheatstone Scripting and Logic forum for sharing scripts, screen shots and ideas with others also developing virtual news desks, control panels, and signal monitors.

OVERVIEW

SCREENBUILDER, ADD TOUCHSCREENS WHERE, HOW AND WHEN NEEDED

Need to add a control panel for shared access to a dozen audio codecs between several studios? Or how about a touchscreen producer panel for controlling mics during a busy show? What about a virtual interface to monitor signals and control signal routing to multiple transmitter sites? Or a quick intercom between studios and venues? Or a news workstation that gives you automatic gain, multiple source selection, intercom,  and full mixing from one menued touchscreen?  

ScreenBuilder can do the above and so much more. By utilizing pre-built widgets and a simple scripting wizard, you can create touchscreen interfaces that have full access to elements and controls in the WheatNet IP audio network. ScreenBuilder can provide remote access to the network from a laptop or tablet over any secure connection and add onto any WheatNet IP audio networked facility, giving you a quick, cost-effective and versatile solution for expanding to new workflows as needed.
