ETC Ion 1000 Control Console

Description

The ETC Ion 1000 Control COnsole is a compact, easy-to-use control board that provides full control over your still and moving fixtures. The Ion 1000 has a large programming keypad, dedicated encoders for non-intensity parameter control, a grand master and blackout button, and a master split fader.

As equipped, this model of the Ion 1000 can handle up to 1024 fixtures. This control board can be ganged together with other Ion boards and remote processor units to form a network for synchronised backup or stand-alone lighting applications. All data may be viewed on one or two of your external monitors.

This board offers manual and programmed control. Effects may be created live, or blind (while performance is running). Effects can be recorded, saved and played back automatically or manually. Updating or reprogramming effects, fade times, steps, and cycles may be edited easily. New cues may be inserted between existing ones.
