This release brings many new features and functionalities, workflow improvements in different areas of programming and additional tools especially for the first steps into the world of grandMA3 lighting control systems. It will enrich the overall lighting control in many different areas, such as installations, concert/touring, television and architectural applications.

- Absolute and relative values completely separated
- USB MIDI support for the onPC software
- Agenda
- Free designable DMX curves
- Special Values – The real reference for your Defaults
- New Capture function – Create a snapshot of your look

Additionally, there are many workflow improvements, especially in known functionalities for existing MA users. The Patch section has been completely redesigned, including a new split view and the ability to include MVR data in the existing showfile. Features like Pan/Tilt Offsets or the Swop function for playbacks have been implemented and designed with better workflows than ever before.
The conversion of grandMA2 show files to the grandMA3 software now supports many more objects. Groups and Presets are converted and lead to a better starting position for users who want to continue with their existing grandMA2 show.
Last but not least, this release offers a completely new tool that MA Lighting had not implemented before: A self-programming grandMA3 Startshow! The user only has to patch some fixtures and can start programming immediately – Groups, Presets and various Layouts are already predefined and can be used right away. This is a game changer, especially for the first experience with the grandMA3 lighting control systems!
