State of the Market The market wants: An approachable user interface Addresses all of the needs of conventional lighting Addresses all of the needs of a moving light desk Works out of the box

Designer Comments It just takes too much time. Different needs from those of the programmer and production electrician Complain that moving light consoles speak such a different language They have no vocabulary for speaking to their programmers …So it all just takes too much time.
7
Programmer Comments It just takes too much time. Takes too long to do basic functions Takes too much time to mark lights Takes too much time to set timing values …. It all just takes too much time.
8
Production Electrician Comments It just takes too much time. Want to keep track of the rig in Lightwrite, Excel or FileMaker Pro data bases, plus the show file itself All three data bases have to be individually maintained …It just takes too much time.
