In recent years, MA Lighting has developed a complete grandMA product family, with more than 1,200 of these lighting systems currently in use worldwide. The product range also includes the grandMA light, the grandMA ultra-light and the grandMA replay unit, as well as the additional software tools grandMA offline, grandMA remote control and grandMA 3D. The grandMA family is a flexible, open system that offers a new control philosophy for lighting designers and operators, say MA Lighting.
Using Ethernet networking technology, the grandMA system enables the control up to 16,384 channels, in single or multi-user-environments: up to eight control desks can be networked together, allowing each user to generate his display and give his own commands independent of other users. The grandMA is successfully used in concert halls, theatres, city halls and TV studios, as well as in discotheques and clubs, and has toured with top bands including Bon Jovi, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Eminem and Avril Lavigne.
