The grandMA3 light Control Room Version (CRV) console is the work-horse of the range but supplied without the monitor wing. Designed for use in control rooms where sightlines can be challenging, the grandMA3 light CRV features 2 additional external monitor ports to facilitate the convenient location of external 3rd party touchscreens without compromising the grandMA3 light console functionality. Featuring 60 physical playbacks, 16 assignable x-keys and a dedicated master playback section the grandMA3 light CRV console provides plenty of playback options. The two letterbox screens are context sensitive and dedicated to providing feedback and options for the grandMA3 light CRV console playback and encoder hardware. The grandMA3 light CRV console includes 16,384 control parameters as standard, ensuring that it is the perfect base platform for the world’s most prestigious entertainment lighting applications. The system size is scalable to 250,000 parameters with the use of additional grandMA3 processing units. The grandMA3 light CRV is compatible with grandMA2 and grandMA3 software. The hardware is ergonomically optimized and can be considered a silent version by default. The grandMA3 lighting control consoles offer a fresh user interface with an optimized command section for intuitive and fast access. The grandMA3 consoles features dual encoders, which provide users with intuitive control of additional features and functions. Feature-mapping of the dual encoders is customizable, facilitating ease of use and faster programming. Long-life motorized playback faders are used across the entire grandMA3 console range. The faders incorporate a color-changing light pipe. All playbacks have direct access to button pushes as well as intensity and timing changes thanks to the new rotary RGB backlit encoders. The grandMA3 operating system is completely new and has been designed to feel more welcoming to fresh converts without alienating existing grandMA programmers. Extensive user feedback has been incorporated to ensure the new functionality address’ the real world needs of the MA family. The fundamental syntax of the grandMA2 has been preserved and extended to facilitate the new functionality. The grandMA3 software has an elegant new system-architecture incorporating new fixture, feature and effects-handling at it’s very heart. These ground-breaking concepts from top industry visionaries, are presented within a refined user interface, and are designed to make practical tasks more intuitive. Selecting fixtures, adjusting values, storing presets and playing back cues should all feel familiar, but improved in many details of the process. Better overview, faster access and more accurate information will create an improved user experience in programming and busking a show. Fixture information is now generic and allows simpler sharing of programmed data between fixtures. We also support the new GDTF (General Device Type Format) natively, allowing fixture manufactures to ensure their own fixtures are controlled as intended. Read more -
The grandMA3 onPC rack-unit is a first class onPC controller in 19″ format with the grandMA3 onPC software already pre-installed on a powerful computer. So you won’t miss any features or software functionality compared to the grandMA3 consoles. Just connect a mouse, a keyboard and up to two external monitors and you can directly control 2 048 parameters. In combination with other onPC products, this can be extended to a maximum of 4 096 parameters. You are looking for a grandMA3 onPC control solution to be installed in a 19″ rack? You work in a fixed installation like a theater, shopping mall, TV/streaming studio or house of worship and need a reliable backup solution for your grandMA3 lighting control system? Or you want to implement a stand-alone lighting control system for your show that runs automatically due to external triggers, for example in a theme park or for architectural lighting?

The grandMA3 processing unit XL is the ultimate parameter expansion solution offering substantial cost and size savings. It’s the simplest way to design grandMA3 lighting control systems with up to 250,000 parameters. The powerful CPU ensures frame-synchronous calculation of 16,384 parameters within the MA-Net3 environment. Additionally, the grandMA3 processing unit XL offers a Mode2 to expand existing grandMA2 systems by 4,096 parameters.The grandMA3 processing units are designed for rack mounting and all models are only 2RU, allowing for efficient touring solutions. Each model is equipped with 8 DMX outputs for frame-synchronous DMX output throughout the network. Additional frame-synchronous DMX outputs are available with the addition of grandMA3 xPort Nodes. grandMA3 processing units offer a perfect system overview on the integrated touchscreen. This easy access to important functions allows for best maintenance if installed in a dedicated rack whilst every function can be monitored from the grandMA3 session. For larger systems, it is suggested to keep the grandMA3 processing units in a centralized position for parameter expansion and to use grandMA3 xPort Nodes to distribute and output the frame-synchronous DMX data.
