As with previous DiGiCo case designs, 5 Star's team set out to add their 'touch' to the internal layout. The SD9 console feature new types of 'end-cheeks' that set off the console's appearance. To compliment these, 5 Star used Solid Edge 3D modeling and rendering software to create enhancements to the case's support cheeks. Whilst manufactured in plywood, these support cheeks compliment the SD9's features.

Once the 'virtual' support cheeks were completed using the 3D software, prototypes were machined on one of the three Thermwood CNC centres. Different colour finishes were also produced, but black was selected.

Whilst ten special cases were produced to coincide with the SD9's launch at Pro Light & Sound, Frankfurt recently, a 'production' version of the case had already been produced. The case features a facility to use an optional VESA screen mount, to either side of the console.

As on the SD8 models, a pull-out keyboard drawer and rear hinged access flap, are included as standard. Colour matched rubber handle grips and the usual DiGiCo branding adds visual impact to the case.


	5 Star Cases launch a new Lectern and Case system, which is proving popular with A.V. and Exhibition rental companies amongst others. Available in two variations, either a simple yet stylish plain lectern, or a control lectern with 12u of 19” rack mount space facing the ‘speaker’. Both lecterns are CNC machined from high grade birch plywood and finished in a heard wearing synthetic textured coating. Whilst the default colour is black, other colours are available to special order, to suit the working environment. CNC machined logos can also be incorporated into the lectern to match the client’s corporate branding.

	To provide safe storage and transportation both variants of lectern are supplied with a ‘Heavy Industrial’ flightcase, featuring a large lift-off lid giving ease of loading removal. Access holes allow for concealed cable management and the addition of light if required. The flightcase is available in a wide variety of external coloured laminates and can also be provided with screen-printed logos to increase the visible client branding*.
