Lite

INTRODUCTION
We have all heard the phrase and we can recognize the value of the
idea, "Keep it simple.....".
Frankly, there is nothing wrong with the idea of good, simple,
economic performance controls for the lighting market. The problem
has been that no one has focused on something that is high quality
and easy to operate.
That was yesterday. This is today. The Lite Console is designed
specifically as a "basis preset" control console.
The concept of two-scene preset operation has been a tradition in
the entertainment industry for over thirty years. This method of
control provides a foundation for training new board operators as
well as an easily recognized format for operation by people who
have more responsibilities than time.
The Lite Console is simple to operate. With direct control of the
channels through manual sliders, bump buttons as well as
crossfaders, and six independent submasters operating on three
pages of memory, the Lite Console offers features which exceed
the normal "simple control" operation.
In addition to standard controls, the Lite Console offers illuminated
bargraph displays of fader positions with crossfader timers for
delayed or timed manual crossfades. The channels LED's located
above the bump buttons, mimic proportional channels levels which
are active through the crossfaders or illuminated by the submasters.
Tricolored LEDs under the submasters indicate which page is
active as well as which memory is blank.
The Lite Console also offers an Effects package specifically designed
to repeat patterns of light for special dramatic effects. The Effects
package is straight forward and user-friendly for simple or complex
application.
Finally, the Lite Console is fast. This means that when you touch the
bump button, you get an immediate response.
Meeting expectations is what makes the Lite Console simple. We
think that's the way it should be.
