CONTROL ROOM

The Auditorium has excellent acoustics. It is furthermore equipped with a professional quality sound system using JBL Speakers, Crown Amplifiers and a 32 Channel Soundcraft Mixer. The Auditorium also has its own sophisticated stage lighting with a large variety of professional lights such as Pars, Profiles, Victories, etc.,

 parabolic aluminized reflector lamp (floodlights) (also PARCAN light, PARcan, or simply PARca) is a type of electric lamp that is widely used in commercial, residential, and transportation illumination. The lamps and their fixtures are widely used in theatre, concerts and motion picture production when a substantial amount of flat lighting is required for a scene. low cost, light weight, easy maintenance, high durability, and high output. They are predominantly tungsten halogen.

Fresnels (halogen and spotlights), use a spherical reflector with the lamp at the focus point. Fresnels are not good for tight focus on small areas. They are most often used at medium distances from the stage for area lighting.

Theatrical Fresnels are typically made in 8, 6 or 3 inch varieties, referring to the diameter of the lens, with lamps ranging in power from 150 W (typically with a 3-inch fresnel) to 2000 W (with an 8-inch fresnel). The 3-inch variety is referred to as an inkie. Fresnel lenses can operate close to the light source and are very cheap to produce, so the lanterns tend to be small and cheap.  variable beam widths. Moving the lamp closer to the lens makes the field wider; moving the lamp away from the lens makes the field smaller. Their widest beams are wider than the beams from all but the widest of ERSes. 

The ellipsoidal reflector spotlight (ERS), also known as profile (after its ability to project the silhouette or profile of anything put in the gate), is the most abundant instrument type currently in theatrical use. The flexibility of the ERS allows it to fulfill the bulk of lighting roles in the theater. They are sometimes known as a profile spotlight.

Ellipsoidal reflectors are used for their strong, well-defined light and their versatility

Early ERSes had the lamp housing mounted at a 45° angle to the axis of the reflector and lens train. Since this puts the lamp on a radius of the primary focal point, these fixtures are referred to as radial ERSes.

More modern ERSes have the lamp on the axis of the optical system. These fixtures are referred to as axialfixtures.
