System information

We have so much new to

show you this year

–

ETC innovations to light up your world and work. In these pages, meet Gio, the newest console in our award-

winning Eos lighting control line. We designed Gio with the powerful functionality of Eos, in a compact mid-

range board, for your touring work or tight control booths. Gio was also made to control your hybrid lighting

rigs filled with conventional fixtures like ETC’s Source Fours (including the new Source Four Fresnel!) and LED

luminaires, like ETC’s Selador x7 Color System Series. Our Desire line is the new set of LEDs within the Selador

family, bringing unprecedented rich color and whites to stage and studio production. Our new Sensor3 Power

Control system (it’s not enough to call it “dimming” anymore) accommodates all the loads in your hybrid rig

–

tungsten, LEDs, arc-source movers, and beyond.

Meanwhile, in architectural spaces that want sophisticated lighting control at your fingertips, Unison Mosaic’s

Tessera is a tiny dynamo touchscreen that lets you do big color-changing, artistic effects, seasonal looks, or

subtle lighting events without requiring a massive control system.

And listening to your demand, we are pleased to introduce the Source Four XT spotlight. You’ve wanted to

take your Source Fours outside to do exterior lighting work and art for as long as the Source Four’s unique light

has existed. Now you can.

I hope that as you look at our products here and especially these latest offerings

you will see beyond them

too, to the reasons they are the best in the industry: ETC has the best people. I’m very proud of that. ETC is

entering its 37th year of existence

from the early college-student band of inventors to the current ETC

international community of over 700 people (not counting our representatives, dealers and certified technicians,

who are part of the ETC family as well). The history of ETC
