To celebrate the 15th Musikmesse International Press Awards, the first Prolight + Sound press award was introduced in connection with this year’s Prolight + Sound. More than 100 global production and entertainment magazines voted to determine the best entertainment equipment within 40 categories, and the M6 controller won the award as best lighting controller of 2014.
Commenting on the award a very proud Product Manager, Matthias Hinrichs, says: “What a great reward for all of us at Martin, our development team and our loyal user base. There are too many people to mention who played a part over more than 10 years, provided feedback and support and believed in us. Martin would not have been able to have a successful controller in this highly competitive market without our growing global community of talented, dedicated and passionate individuals with a love for the M-series controllers. This award really belongs to all of our users. A big thanks from me to all of you.’
Designed to easily handle even the most demanding multimedia shows, the M6 console can control everything from conventional and moving lights to the most advanced media server. The console is based on Martin’s proprietary M-Series™ software platform and provides users with a highly advanced visual control surface for fast programming and extensive playback control.
The M6 is Martin’s most advanced console design to date, featuring a total of 44 playbacks, 10 motorized faders, 12 additional faders, and a total of 17 encoders for parameter access as well as Martin’s proprietary LiveBlender™ T-Bar, FastDial™ rotary encoders, and BriteTouch™ display.
