The Beseler Universal also uses a convenient YMC control panel for actual RGB narrow-band light, but halogen. So there's a precedent. But that particular design was not sufficiently thought out, and a number of the triacs in controllers were substandard. I've been involved with quite a bit of equipment design, not photographic,
but still analogous in the sense that you can put together a good prototype, but once you go to mass manufacture you can end up getting flaky subcontracted electronic components that murder the reputation of the product when it's barely out of the cradle. I ended up re-engineering a substantial part of my Beseler U system, and eventually turned it into a dependable high-performance "hotrod" of a colorhead compared to its original state. But it took awhile to psychoanalyze the schizophrenic electronics. The engineers were clearly geeks and not real printmakers, and Beseler was far less than helpful with the problems. Hopefully, this new product introduction will go a lot smoother.
