The fundamental syntax of the grandMA2 has been preserved and extended to facilitate the new functionality.

The grandMA3 software has an elegant new system-architecture incorporating new fixture, feature and effects-handling at its very heart. These ground-breaking concepts from top industry visionaries, are presented within a refined user interface, and are designed to make practical tasks more intuitive. Selecting fixtures, adjusting values, storing presets and playing back cues should all feel familiar, but improved in many details of the process.

Better overview, faster access and more accurate information will create an improved user experience in programming and busking a show.

Fixture information is now generic and allows simpler sharing of programmed data between fixtures. We also support the new GDTF (General Device Type Format) natively, allowing fixture manufactures to ensure their own fixtures are controlled as intended.

For more details of the current software version see the software category in the product section.

The grandMA3 full-size Control Room Version (CRV) console is the flagship of the range but supplied without the monitor wing. Designed for use in control rooms where sightlines can be challenging, the grandMA3 full-size CRV features 3 additional external monitor ports to facilitate the convenient location of external 3rd party touchscreens without compromising the grandMA3 full-size console functionality.
