"Frog 2" Competition (Sort of)


K-Nine

Recommended Posts

There has been a lot of interest and speculation on the new "Frog 2" desk. In this new topic or 'competition' members can offer their own suggestions for the name, colour scheme and front panel design of the new desk :D

 

The current working name for the new desk is "Frog 2". The final name and the colour scheme will be up to those 'arty' types down in marketing. I'm more concerned with the technical features and user interface myself :D

 

Please Note - this is meant as a light-hearted exercise but it may give some ideas to our S & M department :D

Zero88 ICE sounds rather... cool, doesn't it ;)

I agree that Frog II isn't going to do it; should be a more stylish kinda name. Since it won't resemble the Frog consoles I guess...

 

And ditch the green stuff, you've already got blue and grey; go with something new FLAME RED or something :D:D:D

perhaps a silver-teal colour would look good?

 

ok obviously this is of the current bullfrog, but i thought it was quite nice :?: :

Right, here we are ladies and gentlemen, the Frog II lighting desk: :idea: :arrow:

 

-A few presets still in (if you insist on them)

-Lots of multi-function faders (use as presets, subs, cues etc.)

-Many SX buttons

-2 Playback X's for more complex scenes

-Additional mover functionality with 2 wheel groups

-A few LCDs for ease of use

-etc. etc.

Wow - That's some design you have produced there sp

... and we used to think the design of the Sirius 250 was pretty radical :lol:

 

As my colleague Franck said, that should pose a challenge for the flight case designers :D

Hi all,

 

I am no good at creating paintshop stuff however as for the name I love ICE88! It just is catchy, cool (both ways), and smooth.

 

How about this for a slogon; Ice88 Its just sooo cool! (or maybe not lol)

bit like the Sirius 500. Thats a very presentable desk.

 

Yes, I like the look of the Sirius 500- it looks like a very modern desk for its era. I hav never used one (although I have used a Sirius 48). Why did it get discontinued?? and when?? It looks from the picture like it had a very similar sort of layout and setup to The Frog desks!
