About The Install

Big Bull set out to establish one of Hyderabad’s most technically advanced entertainment venues, the brief was clear—a lighting control system that could handle over 250 fixtures, kinetic ceiling elements, and dynamic lighting zones with speed, reliability, and adaptability. The venue’s unique double-height architecture and evolving event formats demanded a workflow that could support both precise pre-programming and responsive real-time operation. To meet these needs, the technical team chose the ONYX platform from Obsidian Control Systems, known for its stable performance and seamless integration with complex visual setups. At the centre of the system is the Obsidian NX2 console, delivering advanced programming tools and real-time control. To enhance live operation, the NX P motorized fader wing was added, giving operators immediate access to playback functions and smooth manual control for on-the-fly adjustments.

 

For DMX distribution across the venue, the team relied on Netron’s range of data devices to ensure stability and flexibility. The Netron DMX 10.3 was deployed to handle signal splitting, offering ten assignable 3-pin outputs with dual-input redundancy for clean and isolated routing. To cover high-output areas, the Netron EN12 and EN12-45 were used—both providing twelve RDM-compatible outputs via XLR and RJ45 respectively, with Artnet input support to handle large fixture groups efficiently. For smaller zones and targeted control, the Netron EN4 served as a compact 4-port Artnet-to-DMX gateway, maintaining clarity and responsiveness where needed. This combination created a decentralized, scalable, and high-performance lighting network that meets the daily demands of Big Bull’s high-energy events, giving the technical team the confidence and control to deliver consistent, show-ready results.
