NORTH CREEK, NY – Creative Stage Lighting, North American distributor of Avolites and Avolites Media, announces that the new Sapphire Touch lighting console is now shipping in the US.
Creative Stage Lighting shipped the first Sapphire Touch to TERI Productions, for use on the two-week Riverbend Festival in Chattanooga, TN. Afterward it went directly to Vicksburg, MS as the main console for the Miss Mississippi Scholarship Pageant.
“Programming the console is so much faster and easier with two screens and multiple workspaces open at the same time,” said Jay Coatney of TERI Productions. “There was actually no difference in running a concert on the fly and an actual scripted pageant. This console was perfect for both applications.”
Coatney continued, “Since adding this powerful new console to our inventory and having the opportunity to show the console and TITAN platform, many LDs have taken an interest and are using the console on their own shows.”
Avolites Sapphire Touch features two wide screen touch monitors, offering fast programming with a huge workspace. Its 45 motorized master faders allow smooth operation or automated playback. Avo ‘sketchfast legends’ are fast to draw digitally and easy to locate during showtime. Tricolor optical trackball indicates fixture color or functionality with ‘Saturn Ring’ control, giving X,Y,Z axis control simultaneously.
Sapphire Touch and other Avolites lighting consoles are available through Creative Stage Lighting’s dealer network.
