For their recent New Year Show in the Turkmenistan Ice Hockey Arena in Ashgabat lighting designer and programmer Umut Yurtseven, who is just 16 years old, used 1 x grandMA2 full-size console and 1 x grandMA2 light plus 1 x MA NPU (Network Processing Unit) to control dozens of moving lights, including – amongst others – 46 x Claypaky Sharpy, 24 x Claypaky Alpha Spot HPE 1200 and 24 x Claypaky Alpha Wash 1200.
“In my opinion MA Lighting manufactures the best lighting control solutions in the industry”, stated Yurtseven. “The continuous development of the software is just great as we, the users, can evolve our shows further and further and let our imaginations run free. It gives me the power and also the possibilities of creating the shows I want to create. Over the years I’ve become pretty familiar with MA’s products – I started using the grandMA2 onPC software when I was nine years old so you can say that I grew up with the system!”
Serdar Özgür worked as operator. Phantom Event Engineering provided the lighting equipment. SF SES VE Isik Sistemleri A.S. is MA Lighting’s exclusive distributor in Turkey.
