A lighting control console for controlling a lighting system includes at least one digital processor, at least one digital memory, and at least one display device configured to graphically depict graphic elements for users. At least one dual encoder is provided in the control panel, which allows users to enter input values. The dual encoder presents a first shaft rotatably mounted in a housing with a first rotation signal generator and a second shaft mounted in the housing so as to be coaxially rotatable at the dual encoder. Both shafts include actuating elements transmitting adjusting movements onto the shafts. The actuating elements are embodied in a rotary disk and/or of a rotary swivel disposed in the control panel of the lighting control console and configured to be coaxially turned in opposite directions.
