SUPERCHARGE YOUR LIGHTING RIG’S CALCULATION POWER!
When your stage design demands hundreds of complex fixtures and massive LED pixel maps, a single console isn’t enough. The MA NPU (Network Processing Unit) is the ultimate rental solution for stadium-scale events. By uniting the calculation power within your network, the NPU seamlessly expands your GrandMA system’s parameter count while ensuring absolute zero-latency performance. It is the invisible workhorse behind the world’s biggest and most complex light shows!
Description
Functionality of MA NPU
-
Massive Parameter Expansion: The NPU acts as a heavy-duty calculator for your main lighting console. Adding an NPU to your network instantly unlocks thousands of additional parameters, allowing lighting designers to seamlessly patch and control massive arrays of moving heads and complex LED video fixtures without overloading the primary desk.
-
Zero-Latency Network Synchronization: In live events, timing is everything. The NPU processes data in real-time alongside your main GrandMA consoles, ensuring that even the most complex, pixel-mapped lighting chases execute perfectly on the beat across the entire rig without a single frame of lag.
-
Integrated Direct DMX Outputs: It isn’t just a processing brain; it is a physical output hub. The NPU features multiple dedicated DMX ports on the back panel, allowing technicians to distribute physical DMX lines directly from the stage rack rather than running hundreds of feet of cable all the way back to the Front of House (FOH) console.
-
Tour-Grade Reliability: Built to survive grueling international tours, the NPU features a rugged, rack-mountable chassis. It also includes an integrated touchscreen on the front panel for quick network configuration, diagnostics, and status monitoring right from the dimmer beach or amp rack.
