To celebrate this event in an appropriate way, the organizers decided to go for a massive laser show setup on four of the six stages, which meant that more than 16 high power lasers were set up on the main stage, and 16 more fired on the other floors.
Reliability as well as quality of the equipment is essential at such large scale productions. Laserfabrik did the laser show performance on all stages and decided to go for a massive laser setup of RTI NANO, RTI PIKO and RTI FEMTO show laser light systems.
The laser show control was executed with a combination of DSP controllers and grandMA2s, which triggered the pre-programmed settings in the DSPs.
Special challenges included the timecode synchronized intro-sequences, which were requested by several artists, but it proved no problem for the operators to get these special shows going.
