The Mantra Lite is an award-winning lighting controller for LEDs, moving lights and conventional dimming. Expandable by adding up to two wings, the Mantra Lite is ideally suited for all types of operators in small theatres, places of worship and entertainment venues.
Fingertip control
Large, colour LCD touchscreen provides immediate access to most parameters and functions at your fingertip. The clever app-based operating system allows even the novice user instant results, whilst still allowing the more experienced user access to advanced functionality. Large icon identifiers quickly drill into key functions such as Colour, Intensity, Beam and Position – simplicity at its best!
Animate
The Animate function is another LSC-first and delivers a simple and intuitive way of creating intensity chases and moving patterns in a single cue. It works with two or more selected fixtures and shifts the pattern, colour or intensity of each fixture to the next and loops the settings of the last selected back to first. No other console in this class can match the Mantra for its fast and advanced programming.
Colour picker
Selecting and controlling colours is now made easier with Mantra Lite’s colour picker app. No more working out the physics of colour mixing. Directional and symmetrical fan functions allow clever fanning of colour on your selected fixtures. Recent colour selections are stored for quick access to favourites and the gels app gives instant access to 100 commonly used gel colours.
Live tracking
All keystrokes are tracked on the Mantra Lite – an Undo button can undo your last action or the Redo button allows you to redo an action and move you up the tracking list. An excellent feature for those long, drawn-out programming sessions enabling the user to retract or reinstate programming at any point of plotting a show.
Fixture editor
If your new lighting fixture does not have a template in the Mantra Lite library, you can create it with the Fixture Editor. Connect the new fixture to the Mantra Lite and let the editor “discover” the DMX channel assignments via the yellow channel faders – you don’t need to know the manufacturer’s assignments beforehand.
Expandable
So, 24 fixtures and 10 playbacks aren’t enough? No problem – connect a Mantra Wing to provide an additional 12 fixtures, 10 more playbacks and another DMX Universe. Still not enough? Add a second Mantra Wing to get a total of 48 fixtures, 30 playbacks and a total of three DMX outputs. Up to two Wings can be connected per Mantra Lite via a USB cable.
