How to Tighten Your Next Production in Five Minutes or Less...
We're exceedingly grateful to our existing customers, and we hope that our products have helped polish your work, whether it be dance, theatre, a rock concert, or an 8-projector corporate A/V extravaganza.
We're delighted to offer the following products:
THE FLAPPER MK II
The Granddaddy of them all! Full DMX control, adjustable manual speed and position points, roadie-proof design and smashing good looks.
THE FLAPPER MINI
I designed this one for a few reasons: First, after hauling Flapper MK IIs to various and sundry briefcase gigs, I realized that 9 times in ten, the venue where I was working didn't have a spare universe of DMX. Or an optosplitter. Or enough 5 pin cable to hit the projector positions. Or enough time to program video reveal cues. Nearly everything was being run manually.
So why not simplify?
Strip away the expensive DMX interface and LCD screen, keep the same motor assembly and flap. Design it so that people can use their existing manual controller module if they've already purchased one.
Voila! Elegant, hassle-free blackouts. Dead simple operation. And a sexy, durable enclosure which fits in your back pocket. Click the link on the right to see some photos.
THE DMX BREAKOUT CONSOLE
No more dragging out the Hog when you only need to run 6 dimmers! A simple little console which uses 5 knobs to control all 512 channels. Great for corporate breakout rooms and small dimmer packs. Just set and forget!
INTERFACES
DMX --> Serial and MIDI Interface
OPTOSPLITTERS
One can never have enough DMX lines, right? 1 input, 4 outputs. Rugged, well-designed circuitry that will keep your show running perfectly.
CUSTOM WORK
Nearly everything listed on these pages was at one time built as a custom project for customers. If you see something here that almost works for you, let us know. There's a good chance we can modify it to fit your application like a glove.
Or fax us the sketch you drew on that napkin during lunch. We'd be delighted to work with you.
We offer quick turnaround, solid engineering and years of experience in live production.
Thanks for visiting our little corner of the web!
