MORPHEUS LIGHTS — PANABEAM XR2

Morpheus is now shipping the PanaBeam XR2, a 1200W DMX-controlled washlight that features continuous unlimited pan and tilt performance with 360° rotation on both axes for both high- and low-speed movement that's extremely bright, has vibrant colors and an amazing array of beam effects. Its high-performance drive system makes the PanaBeam really fast in pan, tilt, color, and beam modification. The proprietary optical system delivers maximum brightness at all beam sizes with a variable angle from 10 to 22 degrees. PanaBeam's range and variety of beam-shaping effects includes a three-stage effects system with two dynamic stages, each with four rotating indexable elements, and a third stage with frost and static effects that can be used individually or in a combination. An anamorphic beam-shaping effect that can be continuously rotated is also included. Operating via a flicker-free electronic ballast, the washlight is easily mounted with two standard clamps or with the Morpheus PanaPlate, or it can stand on the floor.

GLP — YPOC 575

The Ypoc 575 moving head from GLP of Karlsbad, Germany, is now available for delivery. Among the most obvious advantages of the new device is its compactness — in terms of size and weight, the Ypoc 575 is equivalent to a 250-class moving head. A powerful HTI 575W discharge lamp combines with annealed optics to ensure copious light output. A well-regulated ventilation system provides the necessary cooling. The Ypoc 575 is equipped with a color wheel with 11 dichroic colors and two separate gobo wheels. The first wheel contains seven rotatable and positionable gobos and an additional two glass gobos; the second wheel is fitted with nine fixed gobos. All the gobos are exchangeable. A further onboard effect is the 4.5 mW laser diode, controlled by a separate DMX channel.

JEM — GLACIATOR X-STREAM

The Glaciator X-Stream from Jem brings you a total ground fog effect solution in a self-contained unit. The X-Stream utilizes Jem's heavy fog fluids with radically advanced, closed loop refrigeration system to provide an all-terrain, all-applicable heavy fog solution. As a true “plug-and-play” solution, the Glaciator X-Stream can be used in a wide range of applications, from theatre and stage and club installations to theme parks and more. The X-Stream's compressor is designed to allow for strong fog output levels, and because of its electronically-controlled expansion valve, the unit promises rapid freeze down time and fast recovery when fired. Keeping track of internal components can be done using the X-Stream's Internal Diagnostic Assistance. Featuring a Power Save System when passive, the Glaciator X-Stream is quiet and energy efficient, and its cooling fans make little noise when idle, a definite plus for theatrical and studio applications.

ARTISTIC LICENCE — TOUR-LYNX

New from Artistic Licence is the Tour-Lynx, with 12 Ethernet inputs and 12 power-over Ethernet outputs in a 2U high, 19" rack-mounting unit. It is the latest addition to the Art-Net range of DMX-over-Ethernet devices. The Tour-Lynx, which uses all RJ45 compatible Ethercon connectors, is ideal for large DMX-over-Ethernet touring or installation systems. Simply put, the Tour-Lynx converts Ethernet to power-over-Ethernet so that a single Cat 5 cable can be run to a DMX input or output node, supplying both power and data. This significantly simplifies setting up DMX-over-Ethernet systems by removing the need for local power to supply each node.

SGM — PALCO

The new Palco architectural fixture from SGM can be used for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its avant-garde technology and unusual, stylish lines enable it to blend easily into the architecture and scenarios being illuminated. The main innovation is its use of a series of high-power Luxeon LEDs as a light source (with RGB color mixing — five blues, 20 greens, and 24 reds). It is available with 3W (PALCO 3) or 5W (PALCO 5) Luxeon LEDs. The Palco is particularly bright (2,500 lumens), which suits it to a wide range of applications. Color temperature is 5500K, and any other color temperature can be obtained by mixing the red, green, and blue LED luminosity. The Palco transmits and receives on six DMX channels, and the built-in microcomputer has a comprehensive function menu, accessible via user-friendly interface display.
