Every once in a while, you run into a problem nobody seems to have solved.
For us, it was stage production.
Traditional lighting trusses are heavy, slow to deploy, and designed around yesterday's technology.
So one morning, over a cup of coffee and a blank notebook page, Scotto (the Dead Air Saints technical wizard) sketched an idea in one of his many idea books:
A mobile vertical rock and roll lighting truss that one person could easily move.
A truss that could carry audio, video, lighting and control data — with zero setup required (all wireless).
A truss loaded with technology that could configure itself (zero setup).
A truss that only needed a single 120-volt outlet to come alive.
That sketch became the first LightTree™ Truss.
Months later, the prototype was built by hand in the SodaPop House shop.
Today a network of LightTree Trusses are part of every Dead Air Saints production.
Sometimes innovation doesn't start in a laboratory.
Sometimes it starts with coffee, a notebook, and refusing to accept “that's the way it's always been done.”
Patent Pending.
Different Worlds. Same Signal.
