Hi there!
I'm the Lighting Director for a multi-campus church, and we're looking into upgrading our lighting consoles.
Our stages are pretty similar - many LED strips, moving and non-moving LED pars, moving intelligent lights, and many Lekos & 2Ks, as well as house lighting. We also have hazers and some blinders. Here's a picture of one of our stages, normally lit:
We're looking into purchasing a new console. We now have an Avolites Pearl Expert. It's a great console, but NOT AT ALL user-friendly. We work with a lot of volunteers who don't get much time for training, so it's important that we have an easy-to-use console.
We've narrowed it down mainly to two consoles:
I'm needing some advice on which may be better for us. I'm mainly a fan of command-line interface, but I'm open to whatever - as long as it's easy to teach!
Thanks in advance! All input is welcome!
