Jands Stage CL: 12-Channel LED Lighting Console for Smaller Rigs
The Stage CL exists because someone at Jands looked at the world of LED fixtures and noticed that most small consoles were either designed for conventional dimming and confused by color, or full touring desks that were complete overkill for a club, a house of worship, or a corporate ballroom. The Stage CL is the thing in between.
Twelve faders control up to 512 DMX channels across two pages of channel faders and four pages of scene controls. Each channel strip has a fader, a bump button, a selection button, a saturation knob, and a hue knob, so you’re controlling intensity and color from the same strip per fixture rather than hunting across multiple channels. The onboard touchscreen handles patching, scene editing, cue management, and console preferences without needing an external monitor. Art-Net out via Ethernet for networked setups. Snapshot button for capturing looks on the fly, USB for show backup.
It travels in one hand. It gets the job done. For the right rig, it’s exactly the right tool.
