Chauvet DJ Stage Designer 50 48-Channel Theater Dimming Desk

Stage Designer 50 packs 48 channels of control into a console the size of a 24-channel desk, which is the whole argument for it: a school or house-of-worship stage rarely has the wing space for a full-width board but still needs the channel count.

Built-in two-scene cross faders handle live theater transitions, taking one look to the next by hand rather than through a chase. Storage runs to 8 pages of 12 scenes with 96,000 programmable steps, channels re-assign as needed, and two programmable auxiliaries extend playback. MIDI input is supported. It drives LED pars as well as relay and dimmer packs, connects over 3-pin and 5-pin XLR, is 6U at 19 x 10.5 x 3.5 inches, and weighs 9.9 lb.
