Element™ Control ConsoleETC

Eos® Series

GENERAL INFORMATION

Designed for venues using primarily conventional lighting, the
Element control console provides the powerful features of the
Eos system in an economical and simplified package. In addition
to keypad commands, True LTP Channel Faders provide hands-on
control of intensity and can be used to set manual levels and edit
recorded cues and submasters. Moving Light Controls are available
to facilitate the use of conventional accessories like moving mirror
heads, color scrollers or gobo rotators, or to make controlling small
numbers of moving lights simple and direct. Element can be backed
up by another Element, ETCnomad
