It's a bird! It's a plane! It's - 40 thousand LED pixels on a ceiling!!! Indochine's whirlwind tour transports fans to another level of the live experience - immersing them from floor to ceiling with PixMob's X4 wristbands, and an LED ceiling made entirely of its NOVA Minis! With the vision of Indochine's creative team, PixMob used its LED fan-technology to turn attendees and venues into an ocean of effects, and a starry sky of LED magic. Très très cool!

Also available through Hall Stage is the Visual Act stage wagon control system, which has been progressed to now provide full motion control for any flying or motion system, and can interface to most systems by the application of Visual Act sensing on the drive side of any electro-mechanical system.
Also on stand was ASM lifting equipment - both chain hoists and their steel-band drive motors, the latter providing a completely stretch-free alternative to the wire winch, with the same degree of ability for precise programming of speed, acceleration/ deceleration and repeat positioning with ASM's dedicated Genesis control
A new 3m to 6.5m wind-up stand from Mobil Tech, the Alptek 6500 conforms to TÜV, VBG C1 standards and will lift 200kg. Once the legs are slotted away for transport, a flightcase cover neatly latches to the stand's own trolley wheels and chassis, rather than the usual 'just fit the stand in a box solution' - thus eliminating at the stroke the rattle around syndrome. Neat.
Exclusive to the EU, Mobil Tech introduced LED Wall, a simple, lightweight, videowall in 672mm by 1344mm modules, which clip-together with coffin locks and weigh just 18kg each.

Compulite's Vector Editor Wing is a control surface than can link to desk or PC through the off-line software; every part of Vector is accessible in the Wing, editor, playback fader, channel controller. Also new, the Channel Wing, especially useful in the TV market, provides access to channels and cues, and incorporates a large dimmer wheel with associated level display. Any number of these can be connected to a Vector console or the Vector PC and used as channel controllers. The wings can be set to work as a completely separate user, without interfering with the main console ope
Secondly, the company was showing its new Versarray line array system. The mid/high box is loaded with a 12" and a 4" ribbon driver, while the subs can either be a single or double 18". The system is flexible and can be ground-stacked or flown, with its own crankable tower lift, the Vermette. This combination allows Peavey to price the system in the market substantially lower than many other manufacturers, while utilising a driver combination unseen in any other array. Rock on!
