Here’s the same room transformed for an entertainment event.

LEDs mix with Halogen lights for Video Streaming of Church cultural events.

All lights, video projectors and flat-screens are controlled by one console.

The room environment is controlled by a single system using DMX control. Everything from the video projectors to the flat-panel LED televisions, plus all the architectural lighting is controlled through an ETC lighting console.

Every light was “addressed and tested” using an ETC Element 40/250 Lighting Console

Setting the DMX address on every LED light.

I pre-programmed the ETC board with DMX linked to Channels and sliders pre-set as houselight control.

190w, Recessed LED lights replace 85+ year old pendant lights.
