Focus on Creativity Itself

A well-built layout and ergonomic design make the TourBox controller easy for the user to cover all the inputs with only one hand. Best of all, TourBox keeps your dominant hand free, so you can focus on your editing strokes and eyes on creating. Diversified inputs enable users to automatically manipulate the controller via differentiated tactile, which means you can have your full focus on the screen instead of staring at the device in order to find certain keys. No more complicated procedures and no more distractions, your creativity will be uninterrupted. The updated TourBox software version highlights seamless switching between multiple software operations by auto-switching. 

More Customizable to Wider Creative Scenarios

Up to now, TourBox launched a total of 4 full sets of default preset, respectively for Photoshop、Lightroom, Premiere Pro editing, and Premiere Pro color grading, equipped with hundreds of new developed built-in software functions.

The TourBox presents a great performance of slider adjustments in Lightroom. Its buttons switch between different parameter bars and the central Knob is used to dial in changes.

Lightroom is all about sliders—they’re used to adjust pretty much everything, ranging from canvas rotation to exposure to color channels. By default, you get quick access to exposure, contrast, black, white, highlight, and shadow adjustment via button taps, and the Scroll wheel is used for color channel adjustments. An interactive HUD stays on screen at all times and you can make a visual navigation map pop up with just one click. 

The greatest part is, after all the adjustments, you can reset selected sliders to initial values with one click, seamlessly view the contrast between Before and After.

The performance of TourBox in Photoshop® is classical and reliable as always. Accurate brush control via versatile Knob enables you to easily control the size, flow, transparency, and hardness of the brush without interrupting your drawing process. During photo retouching/painting, you can use one hand to paint while using the other to operate the TourBox to freely switch tools via D-pads between pen, pencil, and fountain pen, or to adjust stroke size.

TourBox also brings more intuitive manipulation in video editing areas. During the video editing, constantly scrubbing back and forth through a timeline to make sure a clip is precisely where it needs to seem unavoidable. But with TourBox, the Dial and Knob allowed the editor to quickly scrub back and forth without having to move the mouse.

This process also simplifies a lot of zooms in/out and trimming so you can precisely edit down to an individual frame. Map these two functions to the Scroll and Wheel, then just scrolling up and down with one hand and keep another hand on the mouse.
