This specific desk is the ‘touring’ version which includes the oak sideboards and keyboard drawer and road case. The ScanCommander is preprogrammed with personalities for all the equipment we hire and many other fixtures. However, should the personality not be on the desk, it is very easy to program your own. Nearly all buttons on the console have to option to be user-programmed in order to produce a very simple and intuitive operating platform.
Even in the late 1980s, multifunctional consoles such as the ScanCommander were used for the premier touring and theatre business. Today they are also used for many small productions. The original idea of controlling multifunctional equipment via a common lighting control desk quickly became absolutely essential. Therefore, the complexity of these moving lights required a completely new and independent operating logic.
