Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth or popped into one of our offices this fall. If you weren’t able to be with us in person, here’s a recap of where we’ve been recently and the memories we’ve made. The PLASA Show in London kicked off our fall tradeshows, running September 7-9. Attendees were able to get their hands on the recently launched [F-Drive RX](https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Power-Controls/LED-Drivers/F-DriveRX/Features.aspx) centralized LED driver system, the next-generation of [Hog](https://www.etcconnect.com/Hog/) consoles, ETC [SiteLink](https://www.etcconnect.com/SiteLink/), and the latest ETC fixtures, including the [ColorSource V](https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Entertainment-Fixtures/) family and automated lights [Halcyon](https://www.etcconnect.com/Halcyon/), [Ministar](https://www.etcconnect.com/Ministar/), and [Zeo](https://www.etcconnect.com/Zeo/). Following the second day of the PLASA show, ETC hosted an open house event at their new building in Greenford, London.

The 50th anniversary LDI showing featured a lounge, product museum, and an hourly moving light show with an impressive number of new [Dataflash 5000](https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Entertainment-Fixtures/Dataflash-5000/Features.aspx) and [MegaPix/GigaPix](https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Automated-Lighting/MegaPix-GigaPix/Features.aspx) fixtures in the rig.
