"The VPU is the right video tool to offer users," commented Althaus. "And judging from the good feedback, it really is exciting what is achievable.
"The VPU has many functions and possibilities and is an ideal tool for lighting people. As key users already know the grandMA2, they don't have to learn something new or learn new languages. This makes it quick and easy. Next to the functionality, it's the integration we are highlighting. Setting up the server takes fifteen minutes, this saves at least an hour."
The MA VPU allows videos to be displayed in full-HD or HD and the internal synchronization of the MA-Net2 ensures the highest frame and DMX synchronicity.
Nick Britz from DWR Distribution, who oversaw the training, was also in attendance. "One thing I can say about MA is that they listened to us as suppliers, and to the end users. Everything we asked for they have put in and more. They really know their stuff."
For trainer, Rene Berhorst, it was great to be back in the country and to once more meet up with everyone in the industry. "It has been fun," said Berhorst. "There were good operators and it was a little opportunity for them to see what was coming in, to show them the newly released softwared and to ensure they understood VPU."
