Great! Glad you got it...I was thinking that Arachnis might be part of it's background, but not Ascocentrum. Perhaps they used that to make it more compact

You're actually right about it being a Vanda hybrid, ceherzog. Thanks for the idea!

It's vandaeous, possibly an intergeneric hybrid. One parent is likely Renanthera.
