Shrom was challenged with programming a rig which would have as much impact outside in daylight as it does when the band moves inside arenas.
Shrom worked closely with the band, tour project manager, Chris Diener and show designer, Raj Kapoor in designing something that worked well in all scenarios - choosing a dynamic rig featuring Sharpys, Atomic 3000s with color scrollers, Nocturn UV lights with Eclipse Shutters and MAC Auras.
"I know the Jands Vista T2 well and I can programme it very quickly. I've been using the Vista software now for almost five years. I love the timeline feature: Its simple, easy to look at and work in. The less thinking I have to do when building cues with complicated timing, the better. I can compact two or three steps into one by arranging various attributes to happen chronologically. Click, Drag, Done... moving on. The other item I find the most helpful is the visual interface - I click on the icon, interact with it, and I'm done. There are no numbers to memorise or type in, it's so easy to use and very, very quick."
