the musical chandelier.
as part of london design festival we were invited by tom dixon to collaborate at the coal office. together we created a concept for an OD-11 musical chandelier, controlled by OP-Z, to effectively blend sound and light into a never seen before performance.
design and construction.
built and designed by louis yearwood, tom butterfield and ben goldstone, the chandelier consists of eight OD-11 speakers, mounted upside down in an 80kg frame of aluminum.

hardware setup.
all in all we used two OP-1's (one stationary and one free, to be able to use the accelerometer), four OP-Z's (one together with the oplab module to control the pocket operator modular 400, one for dmx to
control the led strips on the chandelier, and two for main audio), and a PO-32 tonic, triggered via another oplab module. everything was played freely or synced via the oplab modules and lined out into a
soundcraft signature mixer, using its built-in effects. from there the audio was fed directly to the eight OD-11's in the chandelier as well as into a 12k watt custom sound system.
16 rgb flex led strips run along the sides, all controlled live from an OP-Z using the enttec dmxusb pro, via a 24 channel dmx dimmer.
light and sound controlled by the OP–Z.
the OP-Z has a separate track dedicated entirely to controlling your light rig. you can program this track just like any other track on the OP-Z.

for the music we had a custom designed table, where all the equipment was laid out. all in all we used two OP-1:s (one stationary and one free, to be able to use the accelerometer), four OP-Z:s (one together with the oplab module to control the pocket operator modular 400, one for dmx to control the led strips on the chandelier, and two for main audio), and a PO-32 tonic, triggered via another oplab module.
