PLASA 2018: Obsidian to debut new consoles
- Details
Those are NX 2 and the portable NX Wing.
NX 2 is a compact yet fully-integrated lighting controller, which features a high brightness, full-HD multi touchscreen, eight assignable parameter encoders, an assistive mini touchscreen, full keypad and command section, a dedicated grand master, and 10 full playbacks with four freely assignable buttons. The product also contains an Intel Hexa-Core processor, NVMe SSD drive and 16GB of DDR4 RAM. Fast boot times, instant operation and the ability to process 64 Universes right inside the console without the need for external processing networks result in unprecedented power in this small form factor, says Obsidian. The NX 2 has all the connectivity and power the ever-increasing size of shows demands.
NX Wing is the complementary USB control surface to Obsidian Control Systems’ Onyx platform. Based on the NX 2 console, the NX Wing utilises the same rugged design and components with an identical footprint and layout. Through its USB connection, the NX Wing provides a responsive professional hardware surface to operate ONYX on any PC system without compromises. NX Wing hsd four DMX Ports, MIDI and Timecode ports while unlocking 128 Universes of control when connected to ONYX on a PC.
