Avolites Azure 2000 controls the newest, coolest and most IT destination for UK clubbers - CODE. Located in central Birmingham, CODE is the first Superclub and permanent venue owned and operated by club promoters God's Kitchen.
The stunning lighting design is by Carl Dodds of Making Light Work.

Control

Carl Dodds has created stunning lighting design chose the Azure 2000 plus a Stage Visualiser system for the installation.
Carl stated that he needed a console that was rock-solid, robust, yet small, and with the power and speed to deal with an action-packed lighting rig and the plethora of different fixtures.
"The Azure is ideal with its easy programmability and playback, and it's vast range of on-board pre-programmed effects."

The Stage Visualiser is used in 'live' mode to enable the lighting team to create views from
around the club
Carl says "The rig design and programming revolves around the DJ "God" and with the LJ team located next to the DJ, it was vital to endow them with additional viewpoints so they could achieve this,"

This install joins several other high profile superclub installations for Avolites including at :-
Fabric, Home and La Scala in London, Media in Nottingham, Area in Watford, Matrix in Reading and Cream.

Carls' high-impact rig, designed to pump out maximum power.
