UK - Lighting control manufacturer Zero 88 has seriously ramped up its available online consultations and training opportunities.
A busy and dynamic schedule includes 42 x Zoom training sessions each month which will run for as long as the crisis lasts.
Zero 88 product manager Jon Hole commented, “With the whole live music, events and performance industry shut down, we want to be as positive, forward-thinking and helpful as we can to anyone who is already using or keen to know more about some of the core Zero 88 products.”
The Zero 88 Home Page https://zero88.com/ has full details of what’s available and interested parties can sign up on the spot.
The 42 x Zoom training sessions are divided into 10 categories – which are scheduled to be repeated over the monthly period, offering different time slots and also ensuring that those in different time zones can join in and share the knowledge exchange and fun,
Sessions last between one and three hours and will cover a wide range of topics related to Zero’s award-winning FLX and FLX S series of lighting consoles.
The topic categories start from entry-level which are designed to get users up-and-running with an FLX-S desk including patching and basic programming, moving on to more intermediate elements like programming cues into playbacks, cue settings, and editing. The more advanced will explore sophisticated functions like Tracking; DMX / RDM and Ethernet Networking.
In addition to the Zoom sessions – presented by Edward Smith, Tyler Holpin and Jon Hole – one-to-one consultations are also available with Zero 88’s technical support team who will call by request on a convenient number at the best time.
There is also a wealth of other tuition available to watch on Zero 88’s YouTube channel including FLX and FLX S console training.
Jon and the technical Team – Tyler Holpin, Edward Smith, Keith Rogers and Nathanael Orr – are toffering complete bespoke training sessions tailored to specific groups (e.g. venues, rental companies, students, universities etc.) and their particular requirements.
