Liberty
...it's only the start of a revolution"
First member of a forthcoming family based on HATHOR, a very powerful, state of the art lighting and show control software, LIBERTY is the spot-on solution for space-challenging environments and all venues seeking a fully integrated solution to control conventional and moving lights as well as LED sources and other modern equipment in a compact and portable package with the capacity of much larger and more expensive lighting consoles.
Highly intuitive thanks to the graphical user interface this desk meets the sophisticated needs of all lighting professionals alike. As an operator it is easy to advance from a LIBERTY console to other members of the HATHOR software powered lighting control desk family.
The HATHOR software itself has been developed with the requirements of modern lighting design trends and over an extended period of time meticulously and profoundly tested. The lighting control desk philosophy has been specifically designed for theatre stage lighting without any compromise.
The heart of the unit is driven by a powerfull processor with multiple graphical screens and running under the newest embedded version of WINDOWS. This design offers unrivalled performance and reliability, as well as the flexibility to incorporate the software drivers for the latest peripheral devices. The lighting console exchanges among other protocols with standard ASCII show files. The operator may freely configure the screen layout and tailor the user interface to their personal needs and preferences.
LIBERTY is available in five basic configurations controlling channel numbering from 120 to 1024 multi-parameter lighting instruments and can address up to 16 universes via suitable networks. Synchronised passive backup feature is integrated in the system. LIBERTY consoles perform as standalone or as a backup/client desks in an extended network system. Networked LIBERTY consoles will support multi-user / multi-operator setups with optional software packages and hence works perfectly together with other control desks with HATHOR based software.
