Me & My Zero88, Submit a Photo, Win a Desk
Wanna win a new lighting desk? Cooper Controls, the makers of the Zero88 lineup of control products has just the competition for you. Zero88 is running the competition in celebration of 40 years in the business. Starting now, through Thursday September 6, 2012, one lucky winner can walk away with a new Zero88 control desk. It is as simple as submitting a photo with you and a Zero88 product… past or present.
Here are the dets:
Pictures can be submitted via the Zero 88 Facebook page facebook.com/zero88 or by email to mamz88@orbdesk.com, and should feature the user themselves alongside any Zero 88 product. If users don’t have their Zero 88 product to hand, a photograph in a Zero 88 t-shirt at an interesting location is also acceptable.
The competition runs until Thursday 6th September 2012, and the lucky winner will be announced at the PLASA Show the following week. (Earls Court 1 – Stand E38)

Congrats Zero88 on 40 years!
Zero88 Releases ZerOS Remote App in Android Market
Zero88 just let lose their app for the Android OS in to the Android Market Place.
The ZerOS Remote Android app allows remote control of any ZerOS console. The app allows users to control their lighting rig from their Android device. From channel levels to playback the ZerOS Remote offers full control of the Leap Frog 48, Leap Frog 96, Frog 2, ORB and ORB XF consoles.
The ZerOS Remote App for Android looks almost the same as the iOS app from what I can tell from the pictures. If you have an Android Device, head over the the Android Market Place and pick up the ZerOS Remote app. It is a FREE download.
You can learn more about the ZerOS Remote App from Droid by visiting Zero88’s website at www.zero88.com.
Quick View of the Zero88 ORB Desk
I had a chance to stop by the Cooper Controls booth at the LDI booth and talk with Grant Bales-Smith, the Sales Manager for Zero88. Grant gave me a quick overview of their latest lighting desk, the ORB consoles. The 2048 DMX control channels offered by the Orb allows users to control multiple LED fittings, intelligent lights or media servers controlling video, as well as the standard generic dimming systems common to theatres and television. All of these devices are programmed through intuitive user interfaces incorporating custom designed encoder wheels, multiple playback stacks, user definable keys and optional touch screens.
