Puzzled by this. What you guys are stating is that "many" theaters, rather then purchasing a packaged
system from
Clancy, Hoffend or
ETC (or others) actually design,
build and install an entire automated rigging
system, winches and associated computer control systems, from scratch ?.
You have to be kidding me ?.
I don't believe this. I cannot fathom - as Kyle states, that it's cheaper of anywhere near, having the reliability of a *
system* that has an existing
track record in existing installs, is tested and has the backing and support of a company that specializes in this, or in the case of
ETC has a division supporting it.
Set me straight in this if possible.
