All features are seamlessly integrated through the PaTPad’s unique and easy-to-use interface. A touch screen and bright LED dot matrix display replaces the rotary wheels, buttons and poor viewing angle LCD displays that are found on conventional Moving Light Controllers. The touch screen can be moused or tapped to select looks and positions, while the display and multi-colour switch LEDs provide immediate feedback on the state of the selected fixtures.
The PaTPad allows for up to 24 parameters per fixture but no upper limit is placed on the number of control channels allocated to each fixture. Any six parameters may be displayed and controlled simultaneously while all 24 are only one key press away. Individual move and delay times can be stored with each parameter. Filtering and storing according to Colour, Beam or Focus type is of course de rigueur! Fixture templates are available from LSC’s website or new ones may be created on any PC.
LSC Lighting can be found on stand C4.
