music_fever_4_-_ukslc.org.jpg Every Saturday with a prime time slot the slovak TV channel TV JOJ broadcasts "Music Fever", a journey to the greatest hits in the country's pop history. Lighting designer Martin Kubánka uses two grandMA full-size, one MA NSP, one grandMA video media server and 24 Schnick-Schnack-Systems LED-Panels to create a harmonious design.

"We chose the grandMA because of its unbeatable reliability and quality", said Kubánka, "Using grandMA we could synchronize the TV-lights, effects, smoke and haze as well as video and that was exactly what we needed."

The Schnick-Schnack-Systems LED-Paneel C 100 is a new multimedia ready LED fixture for both backlight use and video element implementation. Used as a backlight it needs only a distance of some 8cms/3" away from the backlit material. This creates an area with harmonious lighting. Without diffusion material in front, it can also be used perfectly well as an LED matrix. It benefits from the latest RGB LEDs of leading manufacturer Nichia and the unique modulation technology from Schnick-Schnack-Systems. Each LED can be controlled separately using the build-in DMX and Art-Net interfaces. This way the LED-Paneel can display colour flows from any DMX lighting console as well as video content using a media server.

LED-Paneels can be easily rigged or combined into walls by means of several fixing options. Their aluminium construction makes them durable enough for stage applications. The LED-Paneel is plug and play. It features a linkable Neutrik Powercon mains input, Neutrik 5pin DMX and Neutrik Ethercon 10/100MBit Ethernet connections. Using the build-in graphic LCD it is easily set up, and thanks to a high-power computing architecture it is ready for future demands. The Schnick-Schnack-Systems LED-Paneel is worldwide exclusively distributed by MA Lighting.

The video operator was Tomas Lecký. Lighting operator was Michael Schmidt. Q-99 Sound & Light delivered the lighting equipment.
