If you are interested in how control systems and computer networks are used in all areas of live entertainment, Control Systems for Live Entertainment is the industry standard reference. With a unique combined focus on computers, networking, art, and practice, this book offers an in-depth examination of control for lighting, lasers, sound, , stage machinery, animatronics, special effects, and pyrotechnics for concerts, theme parks, theatre, themed-retail, cruise ships, museums, special and other events. This new edition also includes: expanded emphasis on networking technology and practice complete coverage of important new protocols such as ACN and RDM completely revised and updated case studies a completely reorganized and revised structure Drawing on his extensive experience in the field and classroom, author John Huntington clearly explains everything that goes on behind the scenes and inside the machines to bring bold visions to life in real-world settings. * Author's website is a live, updated resource for this audience - visited from control systems technicians in countries around the globe! * Systems formerly solo are now being networked together and audio and lighting techs need this knowledge * Loaded with realistic examples that readers love General Control Concepts; Electrical Control System Basics; Numbering Systems; General Datacom Concepts; Physical Communications Media; Point-toPoint Interfaces; Lighting; Lasers; Sound; Video; Computer Presentation; Film Profection; Stage Machinery; Animatronics; Fog Smoke Fire and Water; Pyrotechnics; SMPTE Time Code; MIDI Time Code; MIDI Show Control; MIDI Machine Control; SDX; General Network Concepts; Common Network Protocols; IEEE 902.3 Ethernet ; Other LANs; System Design Concepts; Typical Commercial Show-Controllers; A Technical Thunderstorm; Put on a Happy Face; Film at 11; Ten-Pin Alley; It's an Itchy World; Troubleshooting Guidelines. John Huntington's Control Systems For Live Entertainment is the book I reach for whenever I need to understand a communications protocol, whether I'm using it for live entertainment or not. He's done a great job of explaining all the details of communications protocols in a very readable form. Because 'the show must go on.' John's explanations not only make clear how protocols work, but also why it matters that they work well. I recommend it not only to show control technicians and designers, but also to computer scientists, electrical engineers, interaction designers, and anyone who thinks they understand what network communications is all about. If it's your business to make things talk to teach other, John has something to teach you! -Tom Igoe, Associate Arts Professor, ITP, Tisch School of the Arts, NYU and author of Physical Computing: Sensing and Controlling the Physical World with Computers and Making Things Talk: Practical Methods for Connecting Physical Objects We recommend this book to engineers and students who ask us, How do I learn how to do what you do? We also tell our newly hired engineers that they should be conversant with the entire contents of this book because it covers the core knowledge commonly needed in the design of show control systems. Glenn Birket, P.E., President, Birket Engineering, Inc., designers of show and ride control systems since 1984 Given the increasing complexity of entertainment systems, todays tech needs access to an abundance of fresh information, and this book provides it in a well-organized, easy-to-digest manner. This is the best book you will find on the subject of entertainment control systems because Huntington not only teaches it but also uses it extensively in the real world. If youre serious about your profession in the entertainment production industry, youll read this book now. Richard Cadena, Author of Automated Lighting: The Art and Science of Moving Light in Theatre, Live Performance, Broadcast, and Entertainment (Focal Press 2006) and editor of PLSN Magazine. The only definitive text for virtually every aspect of entertainment show control. Required reading for system designers, product designers, and show control technicians of all experience levels. Steve Terry, VP Research & Development, Electronic Theatre Controls ...exhaustively researched and clearly written... This is an excellent reference concerning what's going on in audio control as well as what lighting techs, studio heads, and TD's are doing... Suffice to say it will remain a permanent part of my collection. --Live Sound! International This book demystifies control systems for entertainment... I have not come across a better single-source reference text on this subject. --Sounds & Video Contractor
