Lighting console Diamond 7 D7-215 - 15 fader 2 touchscreen 14" - AVOLITES AVO-30-01-7202

Diamond D7-215 is the latest addition to the renowned Diamond series of lighting consoles produced by Avolites. This creative console, which is placed just below the Diamond 9 in the hierarchy of Avolites products designed for visual designers and which incorporates many of their technical and design solutions, has 15 faders and 2 14" touch displays. The control surface is well designed, flexible and extremely functional; this careful study of every detail allows light designers to create, program and control their lighting setups with ease and immediacy. Button caps, faders, encoder knobs, encoder wheels and level wheel are made exclusively for this console. Let's see the main features of the control surface: 2 x 14" capacitive touch main screens, 850 nits, 1920 x 1200 pixels, with adjustable brightness 1 x 4.3" capacitive touch screen, 850 nits, 800 x 480 pixels for macro and workspace, with adjustable brightness 15 touch-sensitive motorized faders, with fader cap Dual, motorized, touch-sensitive master cue list faders with 9 control buttons RGB fader indicator 15 ultra-high resolution touch-sensitive playback encoders with push function RGB encoder indicator 60 C&K playback function buttons with positive haptics for timing designer key cap Independent paging for each playback section 10 backlit Macro / Executor keys and 10 soft Macro buttons with legend on the Macro screen Programming buttons all RGB backlit, short travel Cherry MX low profile switches 5 custom RGB backlit optical attribute encoders Dedicated level wheel and on-screen level indication Fully custom backlit QWERTY keyboard (in drawer) Supports an additional external touchscreen via Display Port at 1920 x 1080 pixels On a construction level we find an uncompromising manufacturing: to begin with, the entire structure is made of aluminum to reduce weight. The clamshell design LCD panel allows for reduced transport size, with locking mechanism and screen panel articulation adjustable in 6° steps from – 90 to 155° from vertical. All screens are flush mounted. There is also a comfortable arm rest. The console supports animation-based generative pixel mapping, Quicksketch labeling for extreme customization, powerful multi-user networking with any other Titan console, advanced Cue Lists with support for macros, tracking, autoloads, time code and more. DMX capability is synergy-ready and can be expanded with Titan Net processors to increase DMX channel capacity. Finally, D7-215 fits in a Pelicase Air 1615 flight case, with a total weight lower than the European hold limit (23 kg) for easy transport even by plane. N.B. Together with the console it is necessary to purchase also the relative case (code 09-01-7215).
