Worth knowing before you book

The Compact Connect needs a computer running MagicQ. Bring your own, or hire our Mac mini set up and ready.
A mouse makes programming much easier, and our Mac mini comes with one.
Send your show file before the day, and we'll check it loads and patches to the rig.
For a smaller rig, the Mini Connect gives you the same ten faders in a lighter package.

Ideal for

Festival and multi-band shows
Theatre and musicals
Large corporate productions
Touring lighting control

Available for dry hire from our base near Diss, or delivered and set up across Norfolk and Suffolk. See also lighting controller hire, lighting hire and event lighting.
