The new system was installed during a maintenance period at the KKL Luzern in February. The grandMA2 replay units are used as back-up for the grandMA2 light. The third console was bought for mobile productions. All parts of the MA system are connected via the MA-Net2 with 1Gbit/s. The DMX-output is realised via ELC Ethernet-nodes which are triggered via Art-Net.
"Our first impression was fantastic", says head of lighting Christoph Kunz, "The manufacturing quality absolutely matches the high standards for which MA is famous. Compared to the grandMA 'series1', the grandMA2 has many modifications that enhance the workflow, user-friendliness and performance. The inbuilt keyboard drawer and dimmable keys for working in dark environments are just two noteworthy features.
"The installation and commissioning processes were absolutely faultless, mainly because of the great support from Christian Crego of cast Switzerland AG."
