We are retiring our AutoYoke^®, the first automated lighting solution designed for theatrical use, after playing an important part in professional lighting for over 20 years.

We brought the AutoYoke to market in 1999, as the first automated lighting solution designed for theatrical use, at the request of Broadway designer Brian MacDevitt. We formed an engineering team to develop the product to be a precision moving yoke designed to hold a Source Four that would give designers an incandescent sourced hard edge refocusable fixture. It was a niche that had not been filled in the moving light world, but was of critical importance to Broadway lighting designers.

Now through October 10, see PASS OVER on Broadway, Antoinette Chinonye Nwandu’s new play, in which main characters Moses and Kitch talk smack, pass the time, and hope that today will be different. Evoking heartbreak, hope, and joy over its 95 minutes, PASS OVER crafts everyday profanities into poetic and humorous riffs, illuminating the unquestionable human spirit of young men looking for a way out.

Our heartfelt congratulations to the show's lighting team, led by Lighting Designer Marcus Doshi, for their hard work on this show, and for bringing back Broadway. We thank you for choosing QolorFLEX Dimmers to play a small role in this landmark show.

Moving Light Assistant™ is an application designed to document both the physical setup and programming information for moving light rigs commonly used in the entertainment industry. The software offers a spreadsheet view to show the configuration (lenses, lamps, menu options etc.) of moving light fixtures in your production's rig, to save you time and keep your project organized. It also allows you to design and edit moving light gobo, color, and effect wheel loads, import console reports from leading lighting consoles, and much more, depending on the needs of your unique project. Moving Light Assistant runs on both Mac OSX (Intel only) and Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Our DMXcat® system is designed for use by the lighting professional who is involved with the planning, installation, operation, or maintenance of theatrical and studio lighting equipment. The system consists of a small hardware interface device and a suite of mobile applications. Together, they combine to bring DMX/RDM control plus several other functionalities to the user’s smartphone for use wherever and whenever they are needed. Developed with input from designers and technicians, the DMXcat is an indispensable tool for lighting users.
