If you‘re running a small lighting rig in a venue, as a rental, or in a retail space, you‘ve probably upgraded to LED lights. Why? Because modern LEDs can produce any colour without the need for filters, so you can produce fantastic combinations of colours with just a few lights.

Sounds great, but you‘ve probably noticed that when it comes to choosing a control console most of the ones available either aren‘t designed to control colour and intensity or are way more complicated (and expensive) than required.

Each of the twelve channels has a Saturation encoder and a Hue encoder that you can adjust to set the colour you want. As you turn the dials, a LED on the channel shows the colour you‘re creating.

This is so intuitive that even someone with no experience of lighting can grasp it immediately. And of course, each channel has the traditional fader fader and flash button to set the intensity of the light.

To record a sequence, simply press the Record button, adjust your lights, then press one of the Scene, Chase or Cuelist buttons to store it. To play it back, just tap the button where you stored it. You can adjust the playback speed and chase rate manually with the fade time and chase speed controls.

To set up a chase, you can save each step or create a pattern and the Stage CL will automatically build the chase to run across the lights you‘ve chosen.
You can save multiple cues and organise them however you like using the touch screen, then back them up to a memory stick or portable drive through the USB ports on the back panel.
