System information

ETC was begun in 1975 with the
passionate belief that there was a
better way to make a lighting control console. We developed one of the first microprocessor-based systems,
with the then blindingly fast 2MHz 8080 CPU. Now our award-winning lighting control consoles are thousands
of times more powerful than those versions. And we keep believing lighting control can be even better.
We also found that the HPL lamp in a Source Four
®
made for a better spotlight – unmatched light output and
energy savings. Almost 3 million Source Four-family fixtures now light up venues and productions worldwide.
There is even a new all-weather Source Four spotlight
– a better way to light outdoors.
And we offer you a better way to seize the efficiencies of LED lighting: eco-friendly LED fixtures with the power
and punch that theater and broadcast productions require, plus a stunningly beautiful seven-color range. The
most vivid, saturated color available from LED technology: the award-winning Selador Series
™
x7 Color System,
including the award-winning new Desire
™
line.
With our Unison
®
family, now comprising Paradigm
®
, SmartLink
®
, Mosaic products and more, we are giving
you far better
– and greener – solutions for handling sophisticated architectural lighting, as well as for building-
systems and dynamic show control.
We also believe there is a better way to serve customers. At ETC, our best product is our people. Our Project

needs, create submittals, assist specifiers, process order changes, facilitate shipping, and coordinate technical-

The great playwrights of history have often said ‘Life is theater.’ At ETC, we light life. And we’re always looking
for better ways to do that for you.
