Following its successful launch at the show last year, FLX8 now joins the FLX family of lighting consoles as the latest eight universe version of the PLASA Innovation Award winning FLX product line.
FLX and FLX8 will be shown with demonstrators highlighting the latest software release - ZerOS 7.9 - and the online universe upgrade program for FLX.
This continues the planned FLX programme of feature and capability enhancements - all continuing to making FLX an even more powerful, durable, portable and extendable lighting control console package.
ZerOS 7.9 also brings significant advancements to the whole ZerOS console line-up, as we combine the software's feature set across consoles.
Sitting alongside the FLX will be the new ZerOS Wing, allowing the expansion of FLX to increase the number of playback faders.
A number of configurations will be shown to demonstrate the versatility of the ZerOS Wing package. The Wing also brings new standards of flexibility to all ZerOS consoles - either used alone with a PC, or connected to ZerOS consoles like ORB XF and Solution.
Also showcased will be new Remote and Monitor apps for all ZerOS consoles on iOS and Android. These new free apps deliver more accessible remote operation of ZerOS consoles via mobile devices, with each app having a specific function.
Alphapack 3 will be on display - an update to the industry standard portable dimmer. Improvements include new mounting options and improved DMX control - making Alphapack 3 an affordable choice for a distributed dimmer within a modern 'hot power' rig.
The successful Chilli Bypass completes the current new product line-up - more flexibility in any mixed power and dimming installation, and also including several security features for added peace of mind.
