"In the development of the MK 4, we invested every euro in getting the best possible sound," says product manager Sebastian Schmitz, "and we focused on the key elements of a good studio microphone to ensure that we can offer the MK 4 to our customers at an attractive price."

The MK 4 has a la

The 1250KB, utilising an 80 volt 1200 watt Philips Fast Fit tungsten lamp as its light source is by far, the brightest non-discharge followspot Lycian has ever produced. Although originally designed for studio use, the 1250KB has theatrical applications due to its high output. The consistent 3250°K colour temperature and flicker free beam makes the followspot ideal for HD television, says the company.

Its compact size makes it small enough for theatre coves or box boom positions. Controls include a two lever variable focal optical system, a nichrome heavy duty iris with insulated top mount control knob and gobo slot. Also included is a square shutter control with independent horizontal and vertical shuttering. A six colour top mounted colour boom

Previously, if an entry-level lighting desk was able to control LED fixtures at all, it provided only the most basic support for red, green and blue. As manufacturers add further LED colours, more advanced control is necessary - this means that a SmartFade ML desk is now able to control ETC Selador LED fixtures, which contain up to seven different colours.

Other updates in SmartFade v3 include: a completely redesigned stack, in which cues can be recorded in any order, then played back in the correct sequence; over 3000 personalities, more than double than in previous versions; when the stack is on, the displays in SmartFade ML now include the step name and the running times; consoles are now
