UK - UK - Nitelites' lighting designer Shaun Moore controlled a 'punk rock 'n' roll' show for English folk singer Frank Turner's headline gig at London's Alexandra Palace recently utilising Avolites' Titan V9 Multi-User feature to network a Sapphire Touch and Tiger Touch II.

To create a high-octane show, Moore's rig included Martin MAC Viper Profiles, MAC Auras and Atomics, Clay Paky Mythos, and Par 64 Can CP61/62s.

The Sapphire Touch served as the main console, with the Tiger Touch II (TTII) used as Multi User and Back up. The system ran Artnet through a Main and Back Up Luminex System.

"Avolites consoles are always my first choice, and now with the introduction of the V9 software I can easily network so my TTII is constantly backing up my Sapphire Touch, so in the unlikely event of my main going down I can jump straight onto the TTII with no need of changing any cables or switching nodes," explains Moore. "This feature saves carrying additional consoles for support, having to switch nodes or even copper lines to the system and allows me to block out the elements of the rig the support can't use without affecting my show file.

"This also allows the support bands to have their own handle world without affecting my show file or having to reload files in between them and us."

Following his UK shows, Frank Turner heads into mainland Europe for performances in January and February in cities including Zurich, Berlin and Vienna.
