The next step in modernisation
The focus of this modernisation step was the revision of the Gewandhaus podium and, in parallel, the refurbishment of the entire stage and audience lighting as well as the ceiling illumination in the Great Concert Hall. Since Seebacher had already been involved in the digitalisation of the control system in 2005, it was possible to continue using the existing cabling and switch modules from that time.
LED luminaires have now been installed here, which are dimmed absolutely flicker-free from 0-100 % by professional dimmers. The new luminaires are also used for emergency operation. Thanks to the LED-04B-ANA-DMX dimmer, they are 100% camera-compatible. Over a hundred of these dimmers have been installed in the Great Concert Hall.
All basic functions have been retained: With the existing stage console, the desired function in the hall can be controlled in the future. It was also possible to retain the passageway lighting: If there is no performance in the hall, the existing buttons in the hall can still be operated for cleaning or viewing.
