The Frog 2 made its Austrian debut with the Vienna State Opera Ballet on their production of Walzerreigen in August. The performance was staged at the Kaiserzelt on Lake Altaussee with lighting design by Rudolf Fischer. The Frog 2 controlled the comprehensive lighting rig, which included 18 Martin MAC 600, 18 Martin MAC 2000, 16 6-Bar PAR 64 1kW, 12x Arri 2kW Fresnell, 12 Floodlight 1kW, 12 UV Tube 36W and two UV Flood 400W.
Managing director of Wiener Event Technik, Erich Kulicska says: "The Frog 2 fits all the criteria for our rental consoles including individual timing of channels and quick access to all desk data. In addition, both Zero 88 and RTC have been incredibly supportive in terms of initial demonstrations, training and general after sales support. It is reassuring to know that the consoles not only work under pressure but are also backed by such outstanding service."
