Light programming

Every downbeat, on cue.

We program shows on grandMA3 — built in previz, locked to timecode or played live by hand — by operators who know the songs as well as the band does.

What you get

A showfile you can trust.

Previz programming

The show is built in 3D before load-in. Venue time is for focus and polish — not for writing cues at 3 a.m.

Timecode sync

Lighting, lasers and video locked to SMPTE timecode, with manual override ready for the moments that breathe.

Clean documentation

Structured showfiles, named presets, commented macros. Any programmer can open our file and find their way.

Live operation

We run the desk on show night — or hand over a file your own operator can run, with a briefing included.

01 / SHOWFILE-ARCHITEKTUR

Alles sitzt vor dem ersten Cue.

Patch, Fixture Types, Preset-Struktur, Sequenzen, Makros und Benutzerprofile werden so aufgebaut, dass die Show auch unter hoher Systemlast schnell, übersichtlich und sicher bleibt.

Why timecode

Precision you can feel from row Z.

An audience can't name a single fixture, but it feels when the light lands a frame late. Timecode keeps the whole room on the same frame — every night of the tour, identically.

And where the music is live and loose, we ride it by hand. The skill is knowing which songs want the grid and which want a pulse.

TV-ready: we program for camera as well as for the room

Audience pixels

The crowd becomes the light show.

We program audience LED wristbands — every wrist a pixel. Zone-mapped to the seating plan, driven over RF and locked to the same timecode as lights and lasers, so waves of colour roll across twenty thousand people exactly on the beat.
