"The project is really sophisticated so we had to utilise devices able to work with 'any other device'. Also high reliability of the components was necessary. Based upon these criteria, the MA equipment was chosen," said Martin Kubánka, director of Q99. "The comfortable programming and playback functions as well as the 'clone-function' make the grandMA our favourite console."
The lighting rig features 16 x Martin MAC 600, 8 x Martin MAC 500, 2 x Robert Juliat Cyrano and 16 x Arri Studio 1kW. The show was created in co-production of SLUK (Slovak Folk Artistic Ensemble) and Q-99 which delivered the lighting equipment as well as stage and sound technology. Peter Litomericky was the director, Peter Antalík, production chief manager. Martin Kubánka was responsible for the effects and technical equipment.
