Avolites Diamond 9 Lighting Console

This Avolites Diamond 9 Lighting Console is from 2021 and was previously used in a rental inventory. It shows signs of wear and is in good working condition.

Building on four decades of experience powering the most demanding shows, Avolites D9 is a dramatic evolution in production control. Created in consultation with leading visual designers, and alongside expert industrial designers, D9 is ready for the next generation of ultimate shows and beyond. With vast screen real-estate, all-new controls, and unique media integration it intuitively combines control of all visual aspects of the show. 

Built for fast, hands-on programming

The Diamond 9 lighting console is designed for operators who need tactile control and clear visual feedback during live playback and programming. It pairs motorised, touch-sensitive faders and optical rotary encoders with RGB level indicators and halo feedback, helping you confirm timing, levels, and executor states at a glance, even in dark FOH positions.

Displays and workspace flexibility

For multi-step programming, previewing, and show control, the console includes two 15.6” 1000nits 1920*1080 capacitive touchscreens, three 4.3” 1000nits preview touchscreens for media or workspaces, plus a dedicated softkey menu touchscreen and a 7” dual-touch high-brightness programming screen. When you need even more surface area, it also supports two additional HDMI 1920*1080 touchscreens.
