Description 
Product Overview:
The ETC Ion Xe 20 is a high-performance lighting control console designed for a wide range of venues and applications. With the capability to handle 12,288 outputs and support for up to 99 discrete users, it is perfect for complex lighting setups that require versatile control and scalability. The Ion Xe 20 is ideal for large-scale productions and installations that need intuitive control over conventional lights, moving lights, LEDs, and media servers.
The console features partitioned control, allowing different users to access different areas of the system while maintaining overall system integrity. It includes 20 45mm faders, with 100 pages of configurable faders, allowing you to tailor the console to your specific workflow. The faders are complemented by two high-contrast monochrome LCD displays, which provide clear and easy-to-read feedback. The console also features motorized 100mm faders for master playback, providing precise control over your show.
A standout feature of the Ion Xe 20 is its powerful preset and effects functionality. With four discrete palette types (IFCB), presets function as an “all palette”, and the effects engine offers dynamic relational and absolute progressive behavior, enabling complex lighting effects and transitions. Additionally, Magic Sheets provide user-configurable, interactive control layouts, making it easy to access and manipulate lighting elements in real time.
For non-intensity parameter control, the console offers four pageable encoders. The central information area (CIA) provides access to the browser and other important controls, streamlining your workflow. The console also includes configurable high-density channel displays, which can be customized for different formats and flexi-channel modes.
The Ion Xe 20 is fully compatible with ETCNet2 and Net3 (powered by ACN), ArtNet, and Avab UDP network protocols. It also supports multiple MIDI and/or SMPTE TimeCode Inputs, analog/serial inputs, and OSC transmit/receive. For media control, the console includes a Virtual Media Server function, enabling pixel-mapped effects, images, and animations.
