Welcome to Issue Two of Leading Lights from A.C. Lighting.
With summer racing by, there is no time at A.C. Lighting Inc. for the dog days of summer. WFX Spring '09 and Infocomm are barely in our rearview mirrors, and it is fair to say that both shows provided an exciting glimpse into the future. We are readily approaching the fall season with an upbeat outlook and even bigger plans for 2010. |

A.C. Lighting exhibited at the Infocomm Show in Orlando FL, and received a great response.
The new Chroma-Q
Color Block 2 LED fixture has received rave reviews since its launch in February. One of the more recent reviews written by Richard Cadena, Editor of PLSN, provides an excellent summary of the Color Block 2™ product benefits. The wide and rich color palette and smooth dimming curve of Color Block 2 fixture brought nods of appreciation and wide smiles to all who saw our tradeshow demo.

As usual, the award-winning Jands Vista range of lighting consoles drew crowds from live entertainment, corporate AV, Houses of Worship, lighting designers and programmers. |

| Favorite Vista set-up? PC and monitor
specs for the techies too please |
I've really enjoyed working on a wide variety
of Vista platforms from my own S3 setup to the I3, or when
I work on larger projects a T2 with an S3 sidecar for lots
of faders and room to spread out. But my favorite would have
to be my own setup as its been a great investment for me and
I really enjoy knowing going into any show that my Vista is
sitting at FOH.
Specs on my system are:
Vista S3 Wing
Toshiba 17" laptop with trackball mouse
2.0Ghz, 2 Gig Ram, 256 Meg Discrete video card, 7200RPM HD
19" widescreen external monitor
Wireless router and Toshiba 12" tablet PC as a setup,
focus and cueing remote that also becomes the backup to the
larger Toshiba if needed.
