UK - Lite Alternative has installed a full WYSIWYG design suite in its premises to complement the company's lighting design and production services. Having used WYSIWYG to create over 40 different shows during the past four-years, company hire director Jon Greaves recently decided to upgrade the lighting team's software licenses to the WYSIWYG Perform suite so that they could benefit from the new-to-2005 unlimited DMX channels version to pre-cue outputs from any console.

Featuring advanced CAD tools, 3D rendering and comprehensive paperwork and pre-cueing. LD Paul Normandale is currently using WYSIWYG Perform to create new show designs for Keane, The White Stripes, Sigur Ros and Beck. He commented: "I use WYSIWYG to establish the basic building blocks of my lighting designs and get clients' feedback from the renderings. With the upgrade to Perform unlimited I can now see exactly how my designs are going to look before I get anywhere near the venue, which is extremely beneficial. It's particularly handy when I'm adding fixtures on the road as shows scale up."

Lite Alternative's WYSIWYG facility includes desktop and touring laptop PCs running WYSIWYG Perform, 42" Plasma displays and a large format printer.

A.C. Lighting is a dealer for Cast's WYSIWYG software range.
