Avolites launched its latest console in it’s Diamond 4 Series, the “D4 Elite”, at LDI 2002.
The console is streamlined to offer the maximum power and functionality in the minimum physical space, recognising the ever-growing need in all applications to use FOH and control spaces expediently.
The Avolite Diamond 4 Elite offers all the features of the full sized Diamond 4, in a smaller chassis with 14 submasters and 96 assigned playbacks, with direct access to 96 fixtures via Legend Cells (re-assignable preset playbacks).
Both D4 products have been developed in parallel. Avolites wanted to offer a physically smaller console in the range that still had the flexibility and versatility for which it’s products are renowned.
The D4 and the Avolite Diamond 4 Elite are fully disk compatible, and the Elite features all the software functions of the larger desk, addressing the whole spectrum of production situations.
For those with a relaxed programming schedule, Avolite Diamond 4 Elite’s direct access control surface offers intuitive and fluid programming, that will realise the full potential of the lighting design. Conversely, for those time-pressed moments when an LD has just minutes to programme a spectacular show – the Avolite Diamond 4 Elite offers immediate access to a powerful ‘instant’ toolkit.
The electronic legending increases speed of set-up and allows the automatic configuration of a huge programming Palette.
The Avolite Diamond 4 Elite significantly expands the number of Palettes, injecting yet more potency into this important feature. Greater processing power ensures faster access and response time for all functions. Instant Access features like the live recall of ‘Palettes’ during the show is a hallmark of Avo operators. This single feature has contributed to Avolites consoles dominating festival multi-user control set ups everywhere ...
