Recommendation for Lighting Desk 0-10V control

[Candyman]

Hi everyone

 

I recently moved home and the local theatre here has a basic two preset bank Lighting Desk, which provides control for a number of Dimmer Packs, run on the 0-10V control voltage system.

 

I am a relative novice to Theatre Lighting, and would like to get something a bit better than this to run shows - I am looking at maybe the purchase of a second hand Sirius 24 or 48.

I wondered what other people's recommendations were or were there any other alternatives? The Dimmer packs and lighting we have are fine and unlikely to be changed, but I'd like to incorporate a programmable controller or desk. We will need a minimum of 24 control lines.

 

Everything seems to be DMX nowadays . . .

 

Thank you

Chris

Hi Chris

 

Have you considered a Demux? http://www.zero88.com/en/products/3/50

 

This would allow you to upgrade to using a DMX desk whilst keeping your old dimmers.

 

might be an option,

A secondhand Lightmaster XLS would have 0-10V and DMX (for future development).
