Controlling 12 of the Viper Deluxe machines were a LumenRadio wireless transmitter and 12 LumenRadio receivers. "Wireless was the only way to go," says ER Production's Ryan Hagan. "Smoke machine placement around the stadiums varies depending on the wind, which of course is unpredictable. With wireless we can cover every angle and whatever the wind throws at us. Such flexibility just isn't feasible with cables."
Hagan adds, "LumenRadio wireless DMX is great. It's solid as a rock and never lets us down. We use it at every festival show we work on too. We used it in Kuwait at distances up to a kilometre.
