Nick,The screen layouts on ORB can be customised using the VIEW syntax key - VIEW {SIZE} and VIEW {SCREEN} can be used to resize and relocate the currently selected window. Using this it is quick and easy to create a full screen channel view and use the second monitor as your cue lists, etc...

Hi everyoneI just thought i'd pop back up to say that we've been working hard on ORB over the last few months and you might be interested to see some of the developments...The latest software release (5.3.0) adds a non-tracking mode, the ability to use Part Cues and also significantly...

Hi AlexIt's possible to transfer a LightFactory registration from a PC to a USB-DMX dongle, in which case it is the presence of the USB-DMX dongle which unlocks the PC - if you move the dongle between multiple PCs, the registration moves with it.We can also supply the registration stored...

I just thought i'd drop you all a note to let you know that the first release of software for ORB is now available for download on our website, together with the offline editor, user manuals and quickstarts - Take a look. We'll have the console at PLASA Focus next week if anyone from the UK...

This will be coming - the to-do list is getting ticked off quickly. Flash Memory - the only moving part inside the desk is a cooling fan for the processor, as well as the wheels and trackball. No hard disks to go wrong. Another neat idea to add to the mix - we've also talked about giving...

I can see where you're coming from, and have passed your comments onto our R&D team. We'll look at doing something along these lines - our Frog 2 offline has a lot of keyboard shortcuts which work in the same way as the 500 series one, so it shouldn't be major to add some keyboard shortcuts to...

The reason we've opted for the screen layout as have on the Jester range is a result of the criticism levvied on the original Frog range screen layouts which people commented that paging through multiple screens to see your outputs, submasters, memories, etc was frustrating. With the Jester we...

Hi all, I just thought i'd drop in to introduce myself - as Product Manager for Zero 88, i'm responsible for new product development and support for existing control products. I'm a regular on a number of other industry forums and the owner/administrator of the Blue Room forums. Should...

First of all the Element isn't really comparible with ORB feature wise - it has no fixture wheels and doesn't support multiple cue stacks and is really closer to the Jester TLXtra in many ways, or to our Leap Frog range. The Ion is a close comparison but what ORB has against Ion is the...

Dear all, Many thanks for raising the topic of the ORB - we're really proud of this console and feel that it will be an exciting product for the industry as a whole. You may or may not be aware that 2 years ago Zero 88s parent company, Polaron Plc, were purchased by Cooper Industries...
