Designed for large theaters and demanding live events, the Neo X5 Compact Lighting Console from VARI-LITE is a feature-rich platform with audio and video system support for dynamic lighting. Five motorized playbacks and backlit encoders can output over 50,000 channels thanks to the embedded Neo software and 100 DMX universes. The X5 takes internal timecode from connected media and generates new timecode to create precise lighting moments referencing your visual displays.
A 7" touchscreen control panel offers additional, quick adjustment of features while the 15.6" full HD screen monitors your settings and outputs. Easily read your show notes in the dark with the backlit encoders and optional gooseneck light port. Two DisplayPort outputs support connections to UHD 4K displays while USB 3.2 ports offer connection to additional peripheral devices.
