Streamdeck POE add on


Elgato has released a new add-on for all stream decks. With a small box that you can attach behind your stream deck XL, you can now connect the stream deck that would normally have to be connected to a computer, in a POE network and you can now use the normal stream deck as a Streamdeck Studio. According to reports, this add-on will cost less than 100 euros and will be available in quarter 2 of 2025.

New products Prolyte

Prolyte is launching several new products, the Rolling Stage, TSU Single Tube System and the H40R-RMB Truss.

The Rolling Stage is a Rolling Stage Frame Load Bearing System and is also foldable. You only need 1 adapter for stage parts. The adapter on top can be rotated horizontally depending on how many stage decks you would like to use. The system may carry 500 kg and complies with the latest regulations.


The TSU Single Tube System is a new system from prolye. These are various new models such as a cross, a U, loose straight tubes with which all shapes can be made as in the photo below.


The H40R-RMB is a new model H40 truss which is intended for (among other things) LED screens. Designed to be customizable, this center bar provides an ideal solution for seamless LED screen installations. It can be used in combination with the standard H40R truss system, providing compatibility and flexibility for varying installation requirements in one grid. Because the tube is in the middle of the truss, the weight also hangs in the middle. This way you no longer have to worry about the truss hanging crookedly and the part of the rigging of the LED screens also disappears nicely into the truss.




Riedel PunQtum

Riedel comes with a series wired intercom. The PunQtum consists of 2 models, the Q110 beltpack and the Q210 P – speaker station. This is the ideal solution to switch from the old analogue intercom to a digital system. For example, a complete set (1x speaker station and 4x belt pack) can be obtained for less than €5,000. By connecting the Bolero Connect, the system can also be used with the wireless Bolero from Riedel. The replay function is also available on the punQtum. This makes it possible to listen to the last message broadcast on the line for up to 30 seconds.

The beltpacks work on POE and can be used in Daisy chain, the number depends on the PoE source. A maximum of 2 lines can be available per beltpack and 4 lines on the Speaker Station. The entire system can be expanded to 32 lines.

The speaker station is available in 2 models, one with (Q210 PW) and one without (Q210 P) the Wireless app. At the back there are 2x XLR in and 2x XLR out that can be routed independently of each other in the system. In addition to XLR, there are also Serial connections on the back of both versions. You can use this to connect your call light, for example. Connection diagrams are available to make serial connections.

What does the wireless app entail? It is a unique addition to the system for that one person who needs to be connected to someone who is in line. You can connect a maximum of 4 mobile devices per system.

You do not need a base station to use this system. All you need to get the system working are 2 beltpacks and a PoE switch.

For more questions about this system, please feel free to contact us.




Laserworld 


Laserworld has made the larger lasers from the club series standard IP. This means that they can simply hang outside in the rain. The Purelight Series is also IP nowadays.

Fenix Stage NEMESIS 110 and the AT-06 Compact

Fenix ​​Stage is present at the ISE with various tripods. If you are looking for a telescopic lifting tower with a greater height, the NEMESIS 110 is the ideal choice. With a maximum height of 4 meters and a folded height of 1.55 meters, this tower offers excellent performance.

The AT-06 COMPACT is a front-loading tower lift designed to fit into tight spaces without sacrificing performance. With a maximum height of 6.50 meters and a folded height of 1.76 meters, this tower delivers the power you need, in a compact size that is perfect for transport in medium-sized vehicles.

In the video below, Alex Bryan tells us more about these two tripods.

  

 


GM5 Stagedeck


We have previously written about the Prolyte GM5 stage deck during the Prolight + Sound in Frankfurt, but we will now go into the benefits and applications in a little more detail.


The Prolyte GM5 stage deck is a real game-changer in terms of storage efficiency. Compared to the Prolyte Standard Deck, the GM5 deck is designed to take up half the storage space. This significant saving means you can store twice as many decks in the same space, making it ideal for venues, rental companies and touring productions with limited storage capacity.

Whether tight loading docks, limited storage spaces or transporting more decks in fewer trips, the GM5's compact design saves valuable space and increases operational efficiency. Plus, the GM5 retains Prolyte's renowned durability and reliability, so you don't compromise on quality for the convenience of a smaller footprint.

Features of the GM5 Stage Deck:

- Ultra-slim design: The GM5 is one of the thinnest decks on the market, with an overall height of only 5 cm.
- Lightweight: Weighing just 28kg, it is Prolyte's lightest deck, ensuring excellent portability.
- Impressive payload: Despite its lightweight construction, the GM5 deck supports up to 500 kg/m².
- Improved stiffness: The deck remains stable even under heavy loads.
- Compatibility: The GM5 is fully compatible with the leg pockets of all Prolyte Stagedex legs.

Below the photos you will find a video in which Eric Laanstra tells you more about the GM5 Stage deck.

ETC DIN RELAY

ETC also has a new relay cabinet. This cabinet will be available in 3 sizes: 2/24/48 channel relay pack. It is a Wallmount with a small footprint and without needing extra processing you can use it on DMX and the individual channels respond immediately. If you want to turn everything on at once, does the fuse normally blow? When multiple relays are switched on, they switch on in phases. With the processing in between, it is also possible to use the system on SACN or access it remotely over IP. The relay switches at the zero point of the sine wave. Made to NL/EU spec in Ede, so complete Dutch products. It is also possible to give all channels their own earth leakage or per 4 channels.


Robe IStrobe

Robe has now launched the new iSTROBE. This IP-connected fixture offers unlimited Pan and Tilt movements, as well as a zoom function. The strobe is equipped with 16 x 60W RGBW LED multichips and 72 x 20W white strobe LEDs



Astera Quikspot

The new Astera QuikSpot attracted the attention of many visitors during the ISE.

This compact single source Fresnel has a 60W RGBMA Titan LED engine, zoom range of 13° - 60° degrees, 8-leaf barndoor, IP65 rating, built-in battery and CRMX. That is why the Astera QuikSpot can not only be used as a handy uplight, but also suitable for use as a front light or backlight.




CO2 effect creëren met rook

Magic FX released a nice piece of engineering last year with their Magic FX ECO2JET. Many devices can now be found on various stands that try to imitate the effect of a CO2 Jet.



As shown in the photo above, that of Showven Sonicboom ReCO2 is shown. Close to that of Magic FX.



A new Dutch company dares to do things completely differently. Instead of using a turbo fan, it works based on air pressure. In a video they showed us, the effect that comes out of this almost resembles a CO2 jet while maintaining a reduced CO2 noise. The CO2SMOKE head consumes 1500 Watts each and the Booster (compressor) consumes 3000 Watts.

BlackTrax BT-3 Server

Blacktrax has announced that it will launch a new server later this year. The BT-3 server can send up to three RTTPL outputs. More information about this will follow soon.



Doughty klemmen voor buiten

Doughty has renewed his clamps with stainless steel. This means you can hang them outside, even in the rain, without worrying about rust formation.




BlackTrax Beacon 2.0

BlackTrax has released their new Beacon. This beacon uses the Nemo connectors for a faster connection between the Stringer and the Beacon, has a display that shows much more information such as a Beacon ID and battery status, but also whether the Stringer is connected to the Beacon. This way you can quickly find out whether the Stringer is properly connected. Also one of the updates is that it now works on USB-C, which not only ensures that you always have this cable somewhere, but also that the Beacons charge a lot faster.




Visual Productions App Update

Visual Productions has released an update to their app. Photos of this can be found below.
