    Theater Lighting

    Did you know that Copenhagen's Opera House boasts of one of the most advanced theater lighting installations today? Specified by the consultants of an organization called Theatreplan that is based in the United Kingdom, Electronic Theatre Controls (ETC) is the company responsible for the venue's recognition. Denmark's newest landmark is located on Holmen Island. It was given to the country by a native shipping mogul Maersk McKinney Moller.

    The theater lighting installations of Copenhagen's Opera House has actually turned out to be a crowd drawer. Since the structure is nestled near a small harbor, mushrooming ferry boats have been taking locals and tourists alike to obtain a great vista of the venue. One will just be amazed at how breathtaking the beams are at night especially when the facade of the entire edifice is reflected on the water. Hues of red, orange, yellow, blue, violet have perfectly blended justifying the current reputation.

    As what was mentioned earlier, credits belong to Electronic Theatre Contorls (ETC). The company utilized what dubbed as IES sine wave technology where the dimming can be fairly disseminated right over the stage sans harmonic nuisance. The technique actually means that there are no distortions stemming from lamp filaments. Due to its sophistication, there is not even a trace of cable hum which is basically a "sound technician's dream."

    The IES sine wave technology particularly used for theater lighting, permits excellent distribution of energy to the illumination rig all over the platform. Electronic Theatre Controls (ETC) have perfectly supplied what the architecture and designer of Copenhagen's Opera House were looking for. It may have cost a lot but then again, the venue was able to reap the rewards of cost efficiency. One the benefits was that, there was no more need for putting up wirings to racks but only making do of the standard equipments available.

    Electronic Theatre Controls (ETC) also supplied the centralized diffusion system of Copenhagen's Opera House. The control system fully attuned the IES sine wave technology. The venue takes much pride of the 120 channels of IES switch bars, 1, 008 channels of ETC Sensor CEM and 300 channels of IES dimming controls. With the given applications, Denmark's newest landmark makes it among the pioneer of theater lighting.

    Aside from Copenhagen's Opera House, Electronic Theatre Controls (ETC) has also served the Overture Center in Madison, Wisconsin; Hangzhou Grand Theater in Zhejiang Province, China; Holland Performing Arts Center in Omaha, Nebraska; Kammerspiele in Munic, Germany; Unicorn Theater in London, United Kingdom; Salzburg Theater Festival in Salzburg, Austria; Zhongshan Cultural and Arts Center in Zhongshan, China and Ojai Music Festival in Ojai, California, among the others.
