This unit allows users to harness the full power of ONYX without any complicated setup or installation; simply connect it to a PC running ONYX, and you are ready to go. The NX Wing's plug-and-play functionality ensures that users can dive straight into their lighting designs with minimal delay, providing a streamlined experience for professionals in the field.
Equipped with ten playback faders, each measuring 60 mm, the NX Wing offers a high degree of control over lighting cues and effects. Each fader is complemented by four function-assignable buttons, enabling flexible programming and access to a variety of functions. In addition to the playback capabilities, the NX Wing features eight customizable multi-function keys that can be programmed for specific tasks, enhancing the user experience. The main Go section includes essential controls such as Go, Pause, Snap, and Release buttons, ensuring quick access to critical functions during live performances.
Control precision is further enhanced with four digital rotary encoders, each featuring a push function and status LEDs for easy monitoring of fixture parameters. The internal 3.5-inch RGB touchscreen allows users to manage parameter groups, effect parameters, fanning, and global timings, all with a user-friendly interface. The grand master rotary fader provides an additional layer of control, making it easy to adjust overall light levels smoothly. The NX Wing also incorporates various command keys, including Blind, HighLight, Last, and Next buttons, as well as a full numerical keypad for direct input of values.
Connectivity is a strong point of the NX Wing, featuring four DMX ports for RDM Universe In/Out via 5-pin locking XLR connectors, as well as MIDI in/out/thru capabilities for MIDI Show Control, notes, and Timecode integration. The SMPTE Timecode In/Out is facilitated through a 3-pin XLR connection, providing further synchronization options for professional lighting setups. The unit is powered via a 12 VDC external power supply, ensuring reliable operation in various environments. The NX Wing is also designed to meet the requirements of modern lighting systems, requiring a Windows 10 operating system, an Intel Core i3 processor (6th Generation or newer), 8 GB of RAM, and an SSD drive with 40 GB of available disk space.
Constructed for durability and portability, the NX Wing is lightweight and features a sleek design suitable for on-the-go applications. The included RGB LED desk lamp enhances visibility during use, while the dust cover protects the console when not in operation.
