Here at Seattle Sound and Lighting, when we roll up to a gig, we're not just bringing gear; we're bringing efficiency. We know that every minute counts, so we've honed our setup process to be as smooth and fast as possible. Here's a peek into how we get those lights up and rocking, the Seattle Sound and Lighting way:
Fast Deployment with Pre-Rigged T-Bars
"Alright, let's get this stage glowing!" That's usually how it starts. One of the first things you'll see us deploy are our pre-rigged T-bars loaded with four vibrant LED Pars. These aren't just convenient; they're a cornerstone of our rapid deployment strategy. Instead of wrestling with individual fixtures and clamps, we plant these T-bar stands, and BAM! Instant stage wash, perfectly positioned. The cabling we've implemented on these bars means fewer dangling wires to manage right off the bat.

The Freedom of Wireless DMX
Next up? Forget the DMX spaghetti. We've embraced the freedom of wireless DMX. We strategically place transmitters and receivers, establishing a clean and reliable communication network for our lighting control. This means no time wasted running lengthy DMX cables across the stage – a huge win, especially in those tighter venue spaces around Seattle.

Dynamic Lighting with MaestroDMX
For streamlined lighting control without the complexities of traditional consoles, we utilize the MaestroDMX system. This innovative setup features a compact interface that conveniently connects to the sound console. From there, our entire lighting rig can be intuitively managed via a tablet. This approach eliminates the need for bulky and time-consuming large lighting consoles, making setup and transport significantly more efficient. Once all our fixtures are equipped with their wireless DMX receivers, we're instantly ready to bring your event to life!
Quick Transformations with Battery-Powered Uplights
And for adding that perfect touch of architectural highlighting or subtle accent lighting? You'll often see us strategically positioning our battery-powered uplights. These versatile fixtures are truly game-changers when it comes to achieving rapid visual transformations. Need to emphasize a textured wall or create a wash of color behind a focal point? No problem at all. We simply place them where needed and power them on instantly – no need to hunt for inconvenient power outlets. This allows for incredibly flexible and quick adjustments to the ambiance of any space.
Smart and Efficient Power Distribution
To keep the power flowing efficiently, we rely on our long extension cords with strategically spaced outlets. This allows us to power multiple fixtures along a single run, minimizing the octopus of cables that can quickly accumulate. It's all about smart power distribution to keep things tidy and safe, and most importantly, fast.
The Seattle Sound and Lighting Difference
So, the next time you see us rolling up, know that we're not just unloading lights; we're deploying a well-oiled, rapid-response lighting machine, designed to make your event look spectacular, fast. That's the Seattle Sound and Lighting difference.
