de nieuwe revolutie op het gebied van lichtsturingen: Het LSC LX systeem
Following the successful preview of the LX300 console at PLASA in London last month, LSC Lighting Systems will be previewing the LX900 console at the forthcoming LDI tradeshow to be held in Orlando Florida USA later this month.
LSC has been making lighting consoles for over 30 years and after teaming up with Nick Denville (senior software engineer, Flying Pig Systems Hog II, Jands Vista) of Open Clear, the result is a range of consoles that will finally offer the market a real alternative for the world’s most demanding productions.
Historically, consoles are released to the market with operational hardware but it always seems to be sometime before the software is ever show ready. The Clarity LX range breaks with this tradition since the Clarity software was released in the marketplace over 2 years ago and has already been used successfully on major productions globally.
The Clarity LX range will be launched in early 2012 and will feature 3 models the LX300, LX600 and LX900 all with touch screens, multiple programmers with independent unlimited undo/redo, media server integration, LED pixel mapping and innovative Rig Schematic – making fixture selection quick and easy.
Both the LX600 and LX900 have full motorized faders and all models provide RGB fader ident for playback mode indication. Simple and intuitive programming allows for an extremely easy learning curve and ergonomics allow for fatigue free programming.
The LX consoles are available in 3 models. The Flagship LX900 comes with 2 banks of 15 motorised playbacks, 10 touchscreens, tilting top panel, dual colour backlit control surface, and can control 16,384 DMX slots. The mid range LX600 has the same features set, with 1 bank of 15 motorised playbacks, 9 touchscreens, and control of 8,192 DMX slots. The LX300 is the smallest console in the range, yet still includes the same backlit control surface, 15 playbacks, 11 mini touchs screens and control of 4,096 DMX slots.
All the LX consoles run v2 of the renowned Clarity lighting control software. Developed by OpenClear over a period of 6 years, it provides an easy to learn interface with an impressive feature set, designed to reduce repetitive tasks and allow for very fast programming of complex shows. The Clarity software has been sold as a standalone product for Windows and Mac computers for over 3 years and during that time has proven it is show safe on thousands of shows, from small fashion parades right through to large festival rigs with hundreds of moving lights, LED’s, Media Servers and conventionals.
Ergonomics were a major design consideration with the LX consoles. Specialist Industrial Designers with extensive HMI (human machine interface) experience were bought in by LSC to create the control surface. The relative height, size, spacing and even the shape of the keys, encoders and faders were optimised to allow free movement around the control surface and to minimise fatigure during all night programming sessions.
Ā To fully appreciate all that the LX consoles can do for you please contact your local LSC to arrange for a demonstration.
