PID supply Catalyst Xpress to Lite Alternative

Following its appointment as exclusive UK dealer for the award wining Catalyst XPress, Projected Image Digital (PID) has supplied the software package to leading UK lighting rental company Lite Alternative.
PID supplied a full digital media system including the dual 2GHz PowerMac on which it runs, in which PID installed an ATI9800 video card along with a Decklink Black Magic video input card and an Artistic Licence Ethernet to DMX input unit. Lite Alternative packaged it in one of their standard flightcases to make it roadworthy.
The sale followed extensive discussions between Lite Alternative and PID with the latter assessing the client’s needs and advising and building the best solution before handing over a completed system ready for use.
Catalyst XPress is a cost-effective version of the full Catalyst package. It is now available through PID as a software only purchase – making the whole Catalyst universe more versatile and accessible to another layer of users.
