Product description
Chroma-Q Vista M1 Control Surface – Compact Playback-Only Lighting Console.
The Chroma-Q Vista M1 is an ultra-compact, cost-effective, playback-only control surface designed for the Vista by Chroma-Q lighting control software, ideal for small to mid-sized theatrical, concert, and event productions. Referred to as “a console in your back pocket,” the M1 connects to a user-supplied Mac or Windows computer running Vista 3 software, providing tactile faders and buttons for hands-on playback of pre-programmed lighting cues, complementing fixtures like the Martin Atomic 3000, Elation Platinum Beam 5R Pro, or Antari AF-3X Fan. With five playbacks, a rotary master fader, and DMX512 output, it offers a portable solution for venues where programming is done in advance, such as schools, churches, or rental houses. The M1 is perfect for situations requiring reliable, simplified control without the full programming capabilities of larger Vista consoles (e.g., Vista EX or L5).
- Functionality: Acts as a playback interface for Vista 3 software, executing pre-programmed cues, effects, and timelines for DMX512-compatible devices, including dimmers like the Leprecon ULD-340 or fixtures like the Dataflash AF1000.
- Control Features:
- Five playbacks with faders and flash buttons for cue playback and instant activation.
- Rotary master fader for overall intensity control.
- Dedicated buttons for cue navigation, pause, and release functions.
- DMX Output: Supports up to 8192 DMX channels (16 universes) via Vista 3 software, depending on the connected DMX license dongle (e.g., 256-channel or 512-channel dongle). Requires a USB-to-DMX adapter (e.g., Enttec DMX USB Pro) for physical DMX output.
- Software Compatibility: Requires a user-supplied computer (Windows XP, Vista, 7, 10, or Mac OS) running Vista 3 software (free download from vistabychromaq.com). The M1 connects via USB, receiving firmware updates automatically.
- Operation Modes:
- Playback-Only: Executes pre-programmed shows, ideal for venues with pre-planned lighting designs.
- Tracking Backup: Serves as a redundant playback surface for larger Vista consoles, ensuring show continuity.
- Construction: Ultra-compact, lightweight aluminum and plastic chassis designed for portability and durability in stage environments, suitable for desktop or rack mounting.
- Applications: Ideal for small theaters, schools, houses of worship, clubs, and rental applications where space and budget are limited, controlling fixtures and effects via DMX.
- Integration: Pairs with wireless DMX systems like the Doug Fleenor Design Marconi TX/LV for cable-free control, enhancing flexibility in complex stage setups.
