Melange
Pro
Because of its flexibility, ease of use and automated
features, the reasonably priced Melange Pro console fills
a multitude of needs serving theatrical dealers, rental
A/V and contractor markets. With MIDI, SMPTE, external
macros and 2 autofaders that nest cues three deep,
the Melange Pro consistently performs as a solid,
accommodating lighting tool.
The Melange Pro control console provides 128 channels
to control as many as 512 dimmer channels, with
multiple proportional softpatch tables. Along with 400
cues, 99 level sensitive chase effects, each up to 250
steps, and 99 submaster memory pages, this console
gives the user hands-on control of multiple looks and
cued memory. Other control functions include two
autofaders to advance preprogrammed cues, with
programmable fade rates from .1 to 99.59.9 minutes,
and two manual faders for real time, take-control
operation. The consoles also feature an internal 10 year
EEPROM memory protection to ensure programs are
retained even when power is off.
The Melange Pro console requires a VGA monitor
which provides display of channel level information,
programming screens, cue attributes, cue sheets, patch
table, console configuration, memory allocation, and
help information. With the onboard 3.5 inch disk drive,
all memory and console configurations can be saved
and edited on a PC by any text-based editor.
