Equipson LightShark ISE2021

By separating multiprotocol control systems from LightShark of the rest of its products, Equipson can better focus on the development of this renowned range of lighting consoles.

The company Equipson, who has participated in the edition of ISE 2021 which ended its face-to-face and virtual call yesterday in Barcelona, has announced that the range of multi-protocol control products for the entertainment industry LightShark will have its own brand identity.

Since its market launch in 2017, LightShark has changed the lighting landscape by offering mid-level products that are not limited by their features.

Like this, Hardware and software control of up to eight universes DMX and more than 4.000 DMX channels is fully integrated across mobiles and tablets, as well as compatibility with third-party equipment, as LightShark products work with DMX and Artnet, as well as with any operating system (Android, Linux, Windows and macOS).

Very easy to use, The range includes three products: LS-1, including a hardware console with assignable faders and rotary controls; LS-Core, More affordable and with the same lighting control software and processing hardware but without the console, and LS-Wing, an Open Sound Control hardware driver (CSOs) which can be configured in three different modes to suit different applications.

Equipson originally included LightShark in its range Work Pro, which has a wide variety of products aimed at the installation and live sound markets. But as LightShark products have evolved, The company has decided to turn them into an independent brand with its own division, including a product development team, Sales & Marketing.

“LightShark products are so different from any of our other lines that they require an individual approach to R+D, sales and marketing," explains Juan José Vila, Equipson's CSO-. The range has become incredibly popular, to the point that customers already recognize it as an independent brand, So this movement is a natural progression that makes the acceptance of the public official and gives it its own identity within the company”.

From now on, LightShark will have different verticals that fit the specialized needs of the market and a fully independent staff that will take care of all aspects.

Our new FX Engine Deliver on this ambition”.

It's a very exciting time for the company and we can't wait to build on the incredible success this range has already had”.

LightShark will now have its own website, where you can find all the information, along with tutorials and end-user case studies highlighting the versatility of this innovative range of control hardware.
