Rave has one DMX output controlling up to 512 dimmers via 100 (conventionals) desk channels, up to 40 intelligent fixtures (with a maximum of 32 parameters) and up to 20 extra DMX-controlled devices (smoke machines, hazers, etc.). Playback devices include 20 playbacks with a fader and control soft key plus 20 virtual playbacks. Editing is quick and easy using the soft-keys, integrated LCD display, a joystick, tracking libraries, palettes and parameter banks, plus three wheels.
Set-up and patch is also very fast - via a wizard - with access to all patch features for advanced users.
There’s also a new entry-level 24 channel CompuRACK digital installation dimmer, which combines the computing power from the CompuDIM 2000 cabinet dimmer with high quality toroidal chokes and well laid out, easy to maintain Thyristor blocks in a compact, wall mounting cabinet. This brand new product utilises a standard Compaq iPAQ hand-held PC running special software for remote control of any Compulite 4D or Sabre console via wired or wireless Ethernet.
Stagetec will also be showing new products from LSC at ABTT, including the PaTPad moving light module for their popular maXim range of consoles. PaTPad enables quick access to moving light control, without compromising maXim’s easy-to-use control interface. The concept is to provide big moving light controller features on a compact, intuitive controller at a very competitive price.
The range of LSC high quality digital dimmers will also be on show, including the latest touring dimmer system. LSC produce a whole range of dimmers for both installation and portable use that take advantage of improvements in electronic components, inductor performance and advanced heat dissipation techniques. The full range of Compulite and LSC control systems will be on show and Stagetec staff will be on hand to discuss any installation project requirements.
