Visual Productions QuadCore

The Quad. Core is a compact form-factor lighting controller for (semi) permanent installations, designed for architectural and architainment, show lighting, facade lighting, museums, churches, cruise ships, exhibition booths, shopping centers, hotels and restaurants, discoteques, gardens and lounges.

Part of the Cue. Core family, this unit is designed for heavy lighting projects such as pixel mapping. Intended for non-stop operation, the Quad. Core has no moving parts; the unit is completely solid-state and achieves a remarkable level of reliability that allow lighting engineers to 'fit and forget' this stand-alone device.

First of all the Quad. Core is a lighting controller. It can playback lighting shows, static scenes and dynamic effects through its four DMX-512 universes. Featuring six independent playbacks, the Quad. Core can handle lighting in multiple zones or challenging HTP/LTP requirements. Lighting shows designed on third-party consoles can be easily recorded inside the Quad. Core. It also offers features to create seamless loops in your recording.

Recording external shows can be through DMX, Art-Net or s. ACN. The autonomous behaviour of the Quad. Core can be customised by flexible show-control programming. This functionality enables you to automate the show playback. You can define triggers based on any incoming protocol or scheduled time or day. Furthermore, you can convert signals from one protocols into another.

The scalable design of the Quad. Core allows for deployment in small and large projects. The autonomous operation of a single Quad. Core is often sufficient for a small installation. Whereas a grid of multiple Quad. Cores, all networked together, meets the capacity required by large lighting systems. The Quad. Core is fitted with a fluent master-slave protocol for synchronising multiple units.

Solid-state: the units are constructed without any moving part or forced cooling. Data is securely stored in onboard flash. Designed for maximum reliability

Internal clock: the internal clock is used for scheduling events based on time, date or weekday. NTP is supported for synchronising with an external server

DMX merging: the Quad. Core can merge incoming data from DMX, Art-Net and s. ACN. The merging behaviour can be determined by setting the HTP, LTP or priority

• Main features
• Master/Slave: multiple cores can easily be used together. Only the master needs to have its triggers programmed, the slaves will follow in sync
• Ethernet-DMX node: the devices can also function as a 2 or 4 universe bi-directional Ethernet to DMX node. It supports Art-Net, s. ACN and Ki. Net
