City Theatrical to Exhibit at ABTT

City Theatrical will be demonstrating their new technology at ABTT in stand 14 on June 11 - 12, 2014, at The Old Truman Brewery, Brick Lane, London, including new QolorFlex LED Tape and D Series Low Voltage Dimmers, SHoW DMX wireless DMX products, data distribution products from Pathway Connectivity, and Moving Light Assistant software.

Andrew Voller and Chris Hurst will be on the stand to demonstrate Moving Light Assistant. Moving Light Assistant is an application designed to document both the moving light rig and console data used on moving light shows used in the entertainment industry. The application runs on both Apple Mac OSX (Intel only) and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Moving Light Assistant features a spreadsheet view showing configuration (lenses, lamps, menu options, etc.) of moving light fixtures in the rig and an integrated gobo and fixture library that's easily customized and updated. The application allows for data import and export through Lightwright, as well as data import from many popular entertainment consoles.

Moving Light Assistant has recently been used on a wide variety of professional shows including:
I Can't Sing, Palladium Theatre, London
The Commitments, Palace Theatre, London
Rock of Ages, UK tour
Wolf Hall, Aldwych Theatre, London
Bring Up The Bodies, Aldwych Theatre, London
Ghost, Piccadilly Theatre, London and also in South Korea

City Theatrical's SHoW DMX is the wireless DMX of choice for lighting professionals on West End and Broadway shows, permanent entertainment installations, architectural landmarks, major music tours such as U2 and Madonna, and large scale events such as the opening ceremonies of the London Olympics.

Other new products on view are the SHoW DMX D4 and D2 Dimmers. These are tiny devices (the size of a credit card and 14mm thick) designed for dimming low voltage lighting like LED tape in props and costumes. Both the D4 and D2 Dimmers are equipped with a full SHoW DMX Neo Receiver and are compatible with the entire family of SHoW DMX Neo products, feature exceptionally smooth dimming curves, and are flicker free for professional film and video use.

The D4 HP Dimmer is a high-capacity dimmer for LED tape with four 10A output channels and a built in power supply, along with the smooth dimming curves of all City Theatrical LED dimmers. These features make the D4 HP perfectly suited for film and television work.

QolorFlex LED tape is City Theatrical's own brand of low voltage lighting tape made specifically to meet the needs of lighting professionals, with consistent color and durable construction, and is available in a variety of solid colors as well as RGB, and RGBA, and RGBW types.

Pathway Connectivity's Robert Armstrong will be on the stand to demonstrate the complete range of Pathway Connectivity products for professional data distribution, and the Cognito lighting control console.

The Cognito console solves the complex task of programming shows for systems that include incandescent dimmers, moving lights, and color changing LED fixtures. The Cognito is network-ready and features a streamlined user interface to guide you through the process of selecting lights, adjusting their attributes, and recording reference libraries, memories, and cues. Once programmed, the show is played back manually or with sequenced playlists.
