Modular NX1 console system from Obsidian now available

Obsidian Control Systems announces availability of the NX1, an compact lighting controller designed to handle a variety of shows using the Onyx lighting control platform. Obsidian also offers an expandable playback wing (NXP) along with a 10-digit keypad (NXK) that combined with the NX1 creates a more powerful and flexible console.

The NX1 is designed for smaller to medium projects where an intuitive console is needed without a PC. It joins the NX2 and Obsidian’s flagship NX4 under the Onyx lighting control platform. Utilizing the full Onyx Operating System, the NX1 offers a slate of professional features like a high-brightness 10.1-inch HD multi-touch screen plus an HDMI output for one additional external touch monitor that allows for additional customizable views (optional touchscreen monitor not included).

Included are four assignable parameter encoders; ten full motorized playbacks with four freely assignable buttons plus an extra playback and function key hybrid array. A dedicated Master Go section rounds out the front panel design.

Components like a new Intel processor, high-speed NVMe SSD drive and 8 GB of DDR4 RAM allow for fast boot times, instant operation and the ability to process eight Universes right inside the console. With four DMX ports, a Gigabit network port for up to eight Universes of Art-Net, sACN plus the Onyx X-Net protocol, the NX1 has ample connectivity and power for a variety of shows and applications.

One additional touch monitor is supported for more direct access at any time. The NX1 measures 298.5 x 636 x 71 mm (11.75 x 25 x 2.8 in.) and weighs 4.5 kg (9.9 lbs). An LED USB desk lamp, dust cover, USB 3.0 recovery drive and IP65 locking power cable are included.

The NX1 is expandable with the NXP playback wing with motorized faders and dedicated NXK keypad that on their own can operate as a PC wing. A magnetic alignment system allows attachment to either side of the NX1. The keypad and playback wing are part of the Onyx platform and can be utilized with all other NX devices or Onyx on any PC system.

The NXP is a compact, motorized fader wing for the Onyx platform. As an expansion for any Onyx 1 console and Onyx PC systems it replicates the full playback section of the NX1. Four integrated DMX ports provide instant connectivity to the lighting system. Multiple NXP wings can be connected to any Onyx console or PC system, expanding direct access with twenty playbacks at a time.

The flexible button array can be mapped to playback control or powerful function keys. The NXP replicates the layout and all functionality of the NX1 and NX4 console surfaces. The magnetic alignment system allows attachment on any side of the NX1 console or NXK command pad.

The NXK is a small USB-powered control surface for Onyx. As a companion for the NX1 console and Onyx PC systems it replicates the full keypad and command section of larger consoles. Four encoders allow for fast and direct parameter access. The magnetic alignment system allows attachment on any side of the NX1 console or NXP motorized fader wing.
