Share this Post:

FRANKFURT, Germany – PRG’s impressive Highlight Show in the Festhalle at Prolight+Sound has become an annual tradition of sorts. For 2016, first show coincided with the LEA Awards on April 4, before the PL+S show floor opened. A laser display accompanied a performance by the group, Glasperlenspiel. In the days that followed (April 5-8), the highlight show appeared every half hour while the show floor was open. All laser systems on the PRG Stage were manufactured by the Laserworld Group

More details from Laserworld (www.laserworld.com):

Besides the conventional lighting, video projections and the powerful sound system, an extraordinary and exceptional laser show took place: More than 400W of laser power were implemented, including the world’s-first presentation of a completely new show design lighting fixture – the RTI NEO SIX RGB white light beam arrays with analog modulation and beam deflection. This new fixture allows for creating twist and wave effects in midair with a multitude of single beams that can be individually controlled over standard DMX.

All laser systems on the PRG Stage were manufactured by the Laserworld Group, so only RTI and tarm branded laser systems were used. The laser show was controlled through Lasergraph DSP laser control software and hardware, in combination with GrandMA2 consoles. The whole show display was synchronized through a timecode server.
