The use of soft-patching means that the numbers shown above refer to the channel numbers on the lighting desk, not necessarily to the number of the physical dimmer which will be used. Also, no guarantee is given that the equipment or the circuit numbers listed above will be in the exact location shown. If you need a circuit(s) in a particular location or you must have a specific luminaire for your production it is worth checking with the theatre's Technical manager, Roger Miller. You are of course welcome to bring the lighting equipment you need with you - suitably tested for electrical safety of course!
