Hello,
I am a high school senior and for my school's annual variety show i am the lighting designer and board op. We have traditionally used conventional lighting instruments and tinkered with some martins, but this year i am looking to go bigger. I am looking into getting about 12 to 15 martin macs. I was just looking for suggestions on what type of board i should use. I am looking for something that will be easy to learn and program, as we rent our equipment and only have it for about 1 week. Possibly something with software so that i will be able to program the show prior to reciving the board. Here are some of the choices i have from the rental company.
Martin Lightjockey, jands hog 1000, nsi mlc128r, and the martin xciter.
i have read that i should stay away from computer controlling a show, and a console is best. Remember i am on a high school budget.....
Thanks for your help
