Equipson unveils LS-Wing controller at LDI
- Details
Making its U.S debut at LDI 2019 in Las Vegas, LS-Wing can send OSC commands via ethernet networks to any device or software controlled by the OSC protocol. What's more, it can also use ethernet networks to send UDP/IP commands, making it compatible with virtually every lighting, music, video and media server software in use today.
LS-Wing can be configured in a variety of different modes to suit different applications. Developed as a 3 In 1 product, LS-Wing can be a straightforward fader wing, an OSC hardware controller or a standalone MIDI console for any device that accepts MIDI control via USB. A total of four USB ports are provided, including a USB-B port, making it easy to connect to MIDI devices and charge smartphones and tablets.
In all three modes, LS-Wing has a built-in ArtNet/sACN to DMX converter node offering two Direct DMX universes. Work Pro's existing LightShark products - the LS-1 and LS-Core - already offer two Direct DMX universes via an XLR connector, so by adding LS-Wing it is very easy to double the number of Direct DMX universes available to each console.
"This latest addition to our award-winning LightShark range is now in production and will be shipping early next year on both sides of the Atlantic. We are delighted with the interest it is generating," says Juan Jose Vila, CSO of Equipson, Work Pro's parent company. "Its 3 in 1 design makes it easily the most versatile and functional controller on the market. In addition, lighting professionals working in theatres and on live shows can have complete control of more than one device at a time just by using different pages in the same unit,"
