The W-DMX G4S software platform includes an improved adaptive frequency hopping algorithm that improves the plug and play use in crowded radio spectrum situations and better avoids interference from Wi-Fi, DECT Phones, Intercom and more. The adaptive frequency hopping technology has been granted a patent in the USA and patent pending in the EU.

G4S also has a new Invisi-Wire MK2 with support for wireless software updates, which will make it possible to perform wireless software updates to all your receivers, with an easy connection to your transmitters with all receivers updated at the same time.

Another new feature is W-DMX Slot In, a new module that makes it easy to retrofit for the market and is available for both transmitters and receivers.

The Control App has been designed primarily for users of Duran Audio's Sound Reinforcement range of loudspeakers: AXYS Flex, Scope, Source, Target and Beam Shaping Subwoofers. The app connects to the loudspeakers using a wi-fi to RS485 convertors and the new version supports multiple controllers.

In a live environment the Control App offers engineers and sound designers an easy to use and intuitive interface to access the wide variety of features available thanks to the loudspeakers on board DSP. Users can gain full access to the on board 8 band parametric EQ, Delay and Volume settings. In addition to this they can also switch between crossover settings and recall one of the eight on board pre-sets.

In the touring/stage market it is all about creating impact with powerful lighting, attracting the audience's attention to the right places at the right moment, from no matter which angle. The new Philips Platinum MSD 16 R lamp is a reflector lamp that further builds on the benefits of the current 15 R lamp in terms of compactness, but offers 18% increased brightness (16000 lumen at 330W) for increased impact. The lamp has been successfully designed-in the fixtures of both Clay Paky (Sharpy Wash 330) and DTS (Max).

To be able to trigger the right emotions when watching TV or movie productions, it is very important that the lightin

SmartSequencing technology allows large and complex professional A/V systems to be safely powered on and off at the touch of a button or turn of a key, even by non-technical personnel. If you'd rather lock-out this level of control then a series of security covers will lock out the button and sequencing functions and you can simply take the keys with you.

Multiple units can be daisy-chained on runs of over 300m with bi-directional communication between units for sequencing on and off large-scale, complex systems. As is standard with most Furman products, CN-3600 SE incorporates Furman's trademarked power cond

StageMix was initially launched in 2010, allowing wireless remote control of the M7CL digital console's mixing parameters for the first time. It was an instant hit with engineers, providing unprecedented monitor setup freedom and flexibility. Followed by StageMix for the LS9 in 2011, and the CL series in 2012, all three types are exceptionally popular with Yamaha users, being used across the globe. As well as for setting up monitor systems, many audio engineers have pushed the boundaries of the app to use it for more advanced mixing applications.

StageMix Version 4 offers numerous new features and refinements for CL, M7CL, and LS9 users, giving them even more control a

"So many people have been asking us to make a console for live for so long and the time has come," states Antony David, managing director at SSL. "It has been a couple of years in the making because we like to get things right at SSL and we are very confident that we have created a console engineers will fall in love with. It is very exciting to be entering a completely new area of the industry, with a new technology platform and a fresh approach to how a live console should sound and how to give engineers a control surface that helps them deliver exceptional performances. We are really looking forward to how the professional live sound community reacts."

DigiHoist, known as one of the most flexible and safe chain hoist control systems currently on the market, has just increased its adaptability with this Positioning and Ethernet option.

It allows DigiHoist controllers to offer accurate chain hoist positioning via encoders which are installed in the chain hoists under the unit's control.

Encoder options include Quadrature Incremental and SSI Absolute. For historical compatibility, the system can also read Pulse encoders.

Data from the encoders is fed directly into the DigiHoist controller which can then have upper and lower software limits programmed to prevent over travel of the hoist. Additionally, the DigiHoist will stop all movement if the system detects a lack of hoist

"In 2012, to celebrate 40 years of console manufacturing, we unleashed some more Stealth Digital Processing FPGA power to our SD Range of consoles," says DiGiCo managing director James Gordon. "This saw the SD9 become Supercharged, increasing facilities and processing power at no additional cost to new or existing customers."

To mark this significant achievement, DiGiCo also created a special package, which includes 72 mic inputs with two stage racks, known as the 'Rack Pack'. This package offered a complete system at an incredible price, and future proofing like no other console can achieve.

"For 2013 DiGiCo has gone further," Gordon continues, "increasing the SD9 and SD11's sonic possibilit

Ambersphere Solutions' MD, Glyn O'Donoghue is in no doubt about the level of interest generated by this little weapon, "As Clay Paky's exclusive distributor we know that one of their strengths is that they consult with real lighting designers to specify the feature set of their new fixtures; the Sharpy, and now the Sharpy Wash, are the result of that policy. We have been showing one prototype for a few weeks and have been blown away by the reaction from LDs and rental companies alike. It seems like the Sharpy Wash fills a void for rental companies as they have been placing orders without waiting for designers to specify th
