The amount of engineering right here is insane... Defqon has the best spectacle technology available. Hands down. No close second. Only first in class brands like L Acoustics, Clay Paky, M A Lighting, etc...
Watching the lighting tech on the desk (assuming he is the programmer) being so estatic seeing everyones reaction to his work is so heat warming! Being a lighting tech myself I know how good he must be feeling, i haven't programmed anything to this level and currently dont have that level of talent to do so, so i know how proud and how good he must feel!
It is always a good feeling when people enjoy your work, regardlese of industry. Absolutely pure talent by these LDs. Not sure if theyre the programmers or not, but they seem to know their way around all the sequences so one could only imagine :) If one of them sees this, please reach out!
@@jean-pierrebrouwers8372 id love to meet him one day, even if virtually! Im sure hes super busy but itd be an honor to meet him. Does such an amazing job! :)
Yes he is ...💪👌... And it is our son❤. We are so proud of him watching this opening show of him. We visited him yesterday during the last day... It was amazing to see him operaring😮😊
@@jean-pierrebrouwers8372 Wow, fair play! I can't imagine how proud of him you are! Do you mind me asking how he got into programming a show of this scale?
This is really remarkable watching the cues fire on the lighting desk and then the cues fire on the hoists for the screens. Watching it all come together really incredible. Thank you so much for posting this
I was not too far in front to the right. This was my first defqon and the lighting and sound really impressed me. What an awesome career these guys have!
Inderdaad, nu alleen maar de red, waar naar mijn mening het grootste gedeelte van de dag matige muziek gedraaid wordt. Dat was voorgaande jaren een stuk beter gereceld.
This is sick view! Pls more. The Lightning guy at the GrandMA3 fullsize is controlling the whole fixtures or? And the other guy at the GrandMA3 Light is controlling the Lasers and Pyro or how its working?
@@johannes-erlbeck the guy at the ma3 fullsize is the head of the timecode for the entire show. That console is mirrored to another console to the rear left of him in case it were to fail. The ma3 in the front is for pyrofdor(the pyro company). All display movements are controlled by the rear right console closest to me :)
@@johannes-erlbeck pyro i believe takes timecode in and then has their own timecoded show that is synced. Unfortunately dont knoe much re the lasers. Information i got is either observed or from people working in the FOH booth. I know they also used resolume for the displays content as well
I'm in AV I would love to know what sound system they used and what production company did the show and the lighting and sound engineer is WOW JUST WOW 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 MY Hat is off to them,this is not a easy production
Too bad Blue really suffers when the temperature outside increases, it was sooo hot inside on Thursday, I had to leave. Really sad, as it was a lot better Blue than last year!
All the way to the left I assume there was the video man. The technicians confirmed me that Resolume was used for the control system when I asked them Sunday evening. Does anyone know a video where I can see the view of the video guy? ...and out of interest: Does anyone know the company they work for? I guess they work for a company that Q-Dance only commissioned with the technical support/implementation?
All video mixing is done behind stages and not FOH at Defqon.1. Sadly no information on who does the video mixing from my side. Suprised theyte not using black magic constellations
Echt geweldig, wil later best wel iets met AV/festivals doen. Zijn er mogelijkheden voor werktuigbouwkundigen? Ik ben nu zelf begonnen als stagehand voor een vakantiebaan en ga Tomorrowland opbouwen. Ik heb zelf beetje met de lichten bij ons op school gespeeld, alleen jammer dat ik het pas in het laatste jaar had ontdekt dat het zo leuk kan zijn. Waar begin je eigenlijk als een visual technicus?
There is a timecoded show for ya! The amount of work prepping this has to be incredible. I never did timecoding for more then 8 universes so far. Clever use of those crowdscanning snipers as well (instead of lasers). They do seem to be slightly underpowered in this ambient light (2r or 14r fixtures I guess?). Pyro sync was way off unfortunately. Nice registration nonetheless.
Blijft mooi hoor, vooral de techniek erachter. Knap wat ze daar toch bij Q-dance neer zetten haha, heb het tot nu toe niemand beter zien doen dan hunzelf!
Not sure. The MA3 behind it to the left (off camera) is in mirror mode. Ie if the main one fails, the other is already running active/active. All manual controls outside of tinecode are 100% exactly mimiced 1 for one on it.
Since the MA3 had very big software issues MA released a version of the MA2 software for the MA3 layout. Since then you can run both softwares on the MA3
Even the phone has better audio then the streams of Q dance it self..... I stopped listening yesterday with no video its not same feeling anymore like last years. Such a shame not every one likes mainstage. I only wanted to see blue and black 😢so disappointed in the Q dance they cant pull such thing off anno ,2024 many others live stream even smaller events do it. So its just Q dance doesnt care if they did for the family like tomorrowland ultra you name it then they would do it no matter what. So in end it's only about the money with Q dance and not the fans 😔
light was amazing. I mean so many fixtures are hard to controll. And if you timecode the opening show at the best lightning console GrandMA3 fullsize it's a lot of stress, because everything has to be timed perfectly, so errors can happen.
everybody filming with their phones...... not being present and not really enjoying in the moment........ not realizing everything already being filmed by the crew in better quality.......
if the technician starts to film, you know shits going down!
Thats not a technician, thats the god and legend Jonas Schmidt, Creative Director of Defqon.1. Hes been to every festival since day 1 :)

I was there!
The show has really blew my mind, keep up the good work defqon. See you next year!
Boys having a LAN party @ the blue stage. Epic

This is so sick 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I’m glad to see you posting again Eric hope all is well 😊
Its a shame qdance wont video livestream blue
Tsjah... zo kan je altijd wat te zeiken hebben 😂
Inderdaad, nu alleen maar de red, waar naar mijn mening het grootste gedeelte van de dag matige muziek gedraaid wordt. Dat was voorgaande jaren een stuk beter gereceld.
Let alone,any!
I can't be the only one more intrigued by what the techs and computers are doing more than the lights
That intro hit me so hard I still get chills seeing it again
Please keep post those house videos like this ❤❤
This is sick view!
Pls more.

Sound System is L Acoustics. I think it’s K1 and K2 with KS28 and K1SB. Console looks like a Yamaha DM7
Beautiful lights 😊
jeah my biggest dream to work with so many fixtures of light
Бесподобно , слов нет что бы описать это , это состояние ДУШИ .
Great view dude I’m an upcoming and current volunteer lighting designer in hopes of making it to one of these events.
The word of your downfall is 'volunteer' if you are good at something, never do it for free.
Looks like a NASA head quarters…
amazing work
does anyone know the name of the lighting man?
I do not. He was running thr red stsge along with another longer haired guy. If love to meet them both

whats the used beam fixture type?

They used resolume and Touch Designer for the led screens and i think that the company is called twofiftyk
System was warming
Engineers of lights and sounds are on master level
jesusu this was sick

Echt geweldig, wil later best wel iets met AV/festivals doen. Zijn er mogelijkheden voor werktuigbouwkundigen?
Ik ben nu zelf begonnen als stagehand voor een vakantiebaan en ga Tomorrowland opbouwen.

You could try to get certified as a C1 OP. Those are responsible for moving stuff above people. Or you could try to get into calculating structures.
There is a timecoded show for ya! The amount of work prepping this has to be incredible. I never did timecoding for more then 8 universes so far. Clever use of those crowdscanning snipers as well (instead of lasers). They do seem to be slightly underpowered in this ambient light (2r or 14r fixtures I guess?).

question: what is the budget? Answer: Yes
pourquoi ?
Blijft mooi hoor, vooral de techniek erachter. Knap wat ze daar toch bij Q-dance neer zetten haha, heb het tot nu toe niemand beter zien doen dan hunzelf!
So why is the show all two years waaaaay more crazy?
That is the coolest timecode i’ve ever seen!! Is that ma3 in mode 2??
Not sure. The MA3 behind it to the left (off camera) is in mirror mode. Ie if the main one fails, the other is already running active/active. All manual controls outside of tinecode are 100% exactly mimiced 1 for one on it.
@@EricMarsi ay thats cool! Hope you have a great time at defqon man!!
Since the MA3 had very big software issues MA released a version of the MA2 software for the MA3 layout. Since then you can run both softwares on the MA3
that looks to be just mode 3 though! since an update not too long ago, almost everyone made the switch to mode 3 actually
no mode 2, just the MA3 software itself.
Prachtig machtig mooi, maar jammer dat die Villian het wederom kapot maakt.
Someone worked for months on this timecode show
Wow!
Now I,m sure. DJ,s are just on stage for a bit fun, they don’t do anything about the music. The Technicians over here do all the work😊
Then you have no idea what DJing is about. :)

was an ok light show, sadly the music cant keep up with it.

I was to the right of you with my mum lol
Pyro timecode terrified unsynched.... Bad job....
Its a shame there is so much blue cheese

Well there all chanting for Defqon, like if they kno of some reason for a biiiig in Defcon ??? It's
craziness fosho. @CNN. @CBSNews
n hundreds of people recording the same shitty video instead of enjoying the show.
everybody filming with their phones...... not being present and not really enjoying in the moment........ not realizing everything already being filmed by the crew in better quality.......
Heeeee Hoooo 🤮
Langweilige Veranstaltung und schlechte Mucke... Give me the Funk....
nee, es ist einfach ne geile Show. Liebe es, wenn es Pyro und Laser und viel Licht gibt
What a bad recording
Tu tu tu tu 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 ❤
