Unison Paradigm

It's great that all the usual marketing tactics have hit the streets, but I haven't seen anything on the most important question... Compatibility between old and new??  Will the new Paradigm processor support the old stations?  Does the new LightDesigner work with the CMEi ???

 -Thanks

  • Bob,

    What a great question!  The Light Designer software is not compatible with the Legacy unison products like the CME, CMEi and CMEd. The new processor architecture and functionality is vastly improved  and very different form the Legacy Unison products, so we did make a clean separation. In fact all of the New Unison paradigm products are greatly enhanced and improved, so the two systems; Unison with Paradigm and Legacy Unison, are all completely separate products. The wiring types and topologies used on Legacy Unison are still the same with Paradigm, but that is really where the compatibility between the two systems ends.

    You can get more information about the paradigm system and the mini site http://www.etcconnect.com/unison

    or by contacting your local sales representative

  • We will be performing in a very large room that contains a Unison Dimming System rack.  Basically, for this performance, we will not need much in the way of lighting, but the rack is emitting a noise (f#) to be precise.  It is very audible and there is no door between the rack and the stage.  The ceiling height on the stage is so high, an acoustical baffle or curtain is not feasible. Has anyone else ever experienced a noise (we believe the rack is resonating - the fans are on) like this and is there a solution?

    If we turn off the circuits to every dimmer but one, will the fans shut off?  Do we need to be connected to any computer or use software to temporarily turn off the dimmers using switches on the panels? We don't know if the fans run full time, but they were on for an hour while we observed the problem.

     
    We would appreciate your help on this.  I can take comments by email at lharlow@pcmusicfestival.com.
