Cobalt 10 is a compact solution suitable for touring or smaller control rooms. It has built-in, articulating, 12-inch, high-resolution, multi-touch monitors and offers support for three additional external monitors, which may also be single- or multi-touch, and 20 master playbacks with 10 motorized faders and 10 backlit, color-coded endless pots. Cobalt 10 controls up to 5,000 devices (dimmers, LEDs, moving lights or media servers) on up to 32 universes of output (16,384 parameters) without the need for additional processing hardware.
What if you could reach out and touch the light - craft it, color it, move it - directly and without feeling like there's a machine between you and your design? You see the light in your head and with minimal keystrokes see that creation on stage. Cobalt is designed from the ground up to get you from thought to reality as quickly as possible. Short commands coupled with direct-access touchscreen tools make the console disappear under your fingertips - nothing stands between you and the light.
The tools you need to manage your looks with speed and precision are all in there - thousands of devices in the library, customizable by you so that they fit your way of working: groups, palettes, presets as building blocks of your show; effect playbacks for completely configurable effects on conventionals, movers, LEDs and more. All with interactive controls available on the touchscreens. These tools let you break free of syntax and work with light directly.
