Avolites' Compact Quartz Console Makes US Debut at LDIFollowing its well-received launch at the PLASA London show in October, Avolites' compact-yet-powerful Quartz console will make its debut at LDI2014 in Las Vegas. Entertainment technology distributor and Avolites' US partner, Group One Ltd.,will be hosting Quartz on booth 1915 November 21 - 23 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. "Quartz is the newest addition to the Titan Mobile family, complete with on-board processing and a bright, vibrant 12.1" screen," says Avolites sales manager, Stephen Baird Smith. "Super compact, measuring only 16.7" wide, the Quartz is positioned as the ideal companion for lighting projects ranging from touring and festivals to clubs and one-offs. It is Avolites' smallest fully-featured console." "Featuring the same high quality faders and hardware you've come to expect from Avolites, the Quartz can go anywhere you can, ideal for life on the road." "Offering full compatibility with multi user, the Quartz is also perfect for use as a back-up or extra programming surface, cutting your programming time. Quartz is ready to benefit from multi-band Sound to Light Triggering functionality, offered in Titan version 9." Koy Neminathan, Avolites sales director voiced his excitement for one of the newest products in the Avolites range: "I'm absolutely delighted with the feedback that the Quartz has received so far. We can't wait for the US market to see it for the first time, and we're sure that everyone will share our enthusiasm about the console there, too!" Also on stand is the Avolites Tiger Touch Fader Wing, which has the same profile as the Tiger Touch II and features 30 playback faders all electronically labelled with an LCD screen. Avolites is also exhibiting its "ultimate in live control" Sapphire Touch and new Wing, offering an additional 30 motorized faders and a third hi-res touch screen. The full Titan range is also available for demo and hands-on experience, running the software features of the new Titan version 8, packed full of the latest features to enhance the Titan experience and the company says take the user's shows to the next level. Avolites Media will also exhibit at LDI on booth 1116, showcasing the Ai S2 media server, which offers all the benefits of Avolites' powerful hardware in a server drastically reduced in size and cost. Also on the stand will be latest Ai Infinity EX servers, and the Sapphire Media. Avolites Media's Ai servers have recently powered incredible visuals for some of America's biggest acts. Infinity 8 Media Servers pumped out complex visuals mapped onto 40 hexagonal moving towers on Bon Jovi's Because We Can world tour, prompting some to name it "the most ambitious rock show ever." This year, fans across the US roared to the visuals of US rapper Childish Gambino's energetic show as Avolites Media's Ai Infinity EX8 server pumped out a dynamic and interactive graphic display. More recently, Ai powered what's thought to be the world's biggest hologram effect at a live music performance as Eric Prydz played New York's Madison Square Garden. The company says the Avolites Media team has "spent 12 months listening carefully to what users felt they needed from the next installment of Ai." The results of this user-led development process is illustrated in the version 8 feature set and a more unified workspace that delivers what the company calls "everything you always wanted" in a media server. Avolites managing director Steve Warren will also be taking part in the LDI Projection Live Design Master Classes November 19 - 20.
