Hire grandMA3 full-size for Your Next Production
When your production demands the flagship console experience
Choosing a console for a major production isn't just about specifications - it's about confidence. The grandMA3 full-size inspires that confidence through its comprehensive capabilities, thoughtful design, and the knowledge that you're working with the best control surface MA Lighting produces. Here's why it might be right for your next production.
When Full-Size Makes Sense
Not every production needs a full-size console. Many excellent shows are programmed on grandMA3 light or compact consoles. But certain productions genuinely benefit from what the full-size offers.
Large-scale productions with multiple programmers working simultaneously benefit from the extensive control surface. Complex shows with numerous submasters and playbacks need the fader density. Productions where the console is a permanent fixture of the control environment justify the investment in the flagship platform.
The Programming Experience
Programmers who've worked on the grandMA3 full-size often describe it as the most complete control environment they've experienced. Every function is accessible, every control is where you'd expect it, and the console never feels like it's limiting your creative options.
The physical control density means less reliance on menu navigation and screen-based interaction. Actions that require multiple clicks on smaller consoles can be accomplished with single button presses on the full-size. Over the course of a programming session, these efficiency gains accumulate significantly.
Comparing grandMA3 Models
MA Lighting offers several grandMA3 hardware options, and choosing the right one depends on your specific requirements. The grandMA3 light provides excellent capabilities in a more compact format at a lower hire rate. The compact and light models suit productions with space constraints or smaller control budgets.
The full-size is for productions where the console experience matters. When programmers will spend extended periods at the desk, when shows are complex enough to utilise the extensive playback options, and when the production budget supports the flagship hardware, the full-size delivers an unmatched working environment.
Investment in Excellence
At £1200 per day, the grandMA3 full-size represents a significant line item in any production budget. This investment is justified when the production genuinely benefits from what the flagship console offers. For prestige events, major tours, and broadcast productions, the console contributes to overall production quality in ways that extend beyond pure technical capability.
