The X5 is a compact, high-performance lighting console from the industry pioneer in moving head lighting control designed for medium to large-sized facilities that host multiple types of events, such as houses of worship, studios, concert halls and multipurpose venues, theatres, schools, and more. Leveraging over 150 years of combined experience in entertainment lighting control and running the mature Neo platform, the X5 console offers a feature-rich, customizable platform with capabilities targeting both theatrical and live event lighting. 

Neo software helps designers find the perfect look in less time by including an advanced effects engine that supports pixel mapping, media playback, timelines, and more. The X5 lighting console is designed for flexibility, offering 5 multifunctional motorized playbacks and backlit encoders, and can output over 50,000 channels out of the box. The intuitive hardware layout includes both a built-in touch screen and a soft touch control screen. Both the X5 and X15 offer a sleek, streamlined experience, with a powerful processor and premium components, including backlit Cherry keys, Bourne faders, and Neutrik connectors. The all-in-one hardware is rugged and hardwearing, and can travel anywhere you need it, whether that’s around the theatre or around the world.
