What's New?

Hog PC for one. It is WholeHog software that runs on a PC! It controls any DMXable moving light via a USB-DMX dongle. It has all the featrues of the full scale console but at about 5% of the price! The catch? User interface is through a mouse and standard keyboard. It can be a little slow to control a big show that way. Want more info? visit their site. Hog PC

In sound we are still using LEAP/LMS but find that it's pretty thick and tedious. -Yes loudspeaker design isn't supposed exactly finger painting and Oreos, but it should be easier that this. So. . BassBoxPro is the new kid on the block. We hope that this software in conjunction with the consover design companion XoverPro will give easier, faster and better results.

Our last new puppy is one that we are really excited about. It's called SMAART Live. You may have heard of former versions of it like JBL SMAART Pro. Well it was designed by JBL and then bought by EAW and marketed by Siasoft.com. It's a powerful audio alalysis tool that includes up to 1/24th octave RTA, transfer functions and an impulse response test. We use it to set up all of our audio systems.
