The grandMA2 comes with one multi-touch screen (screen 1) and at least one internal TFT wide mode touchscreens (screen 2 to screen 4). Furthermore, you can connect two external touchscreens.

You can use the multi-touch function in the special dialogs:

- Color picker - Fader - Move two or more color faders simultaneously.
- Shaper - Fader Mode - Move two or more shaper parameter fader simultaneously.

If you want to know what we mean when we mention swipe, tap or other ways of interacting with the grandMA2, have a look at this table.
