Sinossi

Stage Lighting Controls gives the reader an historical overview of the way in which modern control systems have evolved, and then explains the general principles of modern computerised lighting consoles and relevant control standards such as DMX512, MIDI and Ethernet. It also covers the basic aspects of controlling moving lights and scrollers and provides a product profile for ten major manufacturers of lighting controls.

Written in accessible language, the book is ideal for both novices and practising lighting designers who need to get updated on current practices and equipment. It is also relevant for stage managers, electricians, technicians and any other production staff who are involved in situations where lights are controlled.
