Martin Professional at LDI 2006, Las Vegas

At Plasa 2006 Martin Professional introduced several new lighting and fog effects which will also be featured at the Martin's LDI booth (#194). To be launched at LDI are Littlebig, a 3 kW Xenon source in a single arm moving head, Cyclo IP65 Directional, and Exterior 1200 Wash. The Exterior 1200 Wash is the newest addition to Martin Architectural’s Exterior range of outdoor luminaires. Its powerful 1200W lamp and full range color mixing system with additional four-color wheel make it ideal for dynamic illumination of tall structures, high-rises or any high-visibility architecture. A full range of varying beam angles from 7° to 19° or 12° to 29° provides designers with several options for achieving even and accurate illumination. Intensity control is 0-100%. Weatherproofed for dynamic outdoor illumination of facades, structures or signage, the Cyclo IP65 Directional is a fluorescent linear luminaire designed to uniformly wash surfaces in color and variable white light. The slim linear design and excellent optical performance are based on RGB and white T5 tubes. The optical module is directional and provides seamless color mixing within the main reflector. The Littlebig 3.0 is a high powered 3 kW Xenon source in a single arm moving head. Based on the success of the acclaimed BigLite 4.5 Xenon, the Littlebig 3.0 features a compact and modular design to enhance its capability for indoor use. The Littlebig 3.0 offers lighting designers real time CMY color mixing, diffusion with electronic strobe and many other customizable effects. Its energy savings and reduced heat output thanks to a quiet cooling system give a long bulb life of 1500 hours. Fully protected by a fiber composite shell, the Littlebig 3.0 runs its full 630° pan in less than one second. Originally launched at prolight+sound show 2006, the MAC TW1 is a 1200W tungsten wash fixture offers a twin lens zoom system, full CMY color mixing and choice of internal or external electronic dimming. A sturdy magnesium structure allows the fast and silent convection of heat away from the back of the fixture. Also launched earlier in 2006, the MAC 700 Wash is a 700-watt Fresnel luminaire featuring a full CMY color mixing system and variable CTC plus eight position color wheel. It also includes a wide range variable zoom, continuous and indexable beam shaper, and extremely smooth and fast dimmer shutter system. The Stagebar 54 is a bright, high efficiency LED pixel bar with RGB, Amber and ‘true’ white color mixing (RGBAW) for a broad color spectrum and great range of pastel shades. The Stagebar 54 features an automatic color calibration technique which assures that colors are always balanced to each other and show correctly. Light output is constant, regardless of ambient temperatures, and different lens angles give flexibility and a wider variety of application. Stagebar 54 also features high speed video capability. Mounting, connectivity and serviceability are all made easy and regulated fan speed ensures efficient heat management, ensuring the fixture’s long term performance. Industry standard DMX 512 controllable with HSI (Hue, Saturation, Intensity) control, Stagebar 54 is light weight yet built to withstand the rigors of the touring market. It comes in a small or large version. A bright semi-transparent LED wall, the Martin LC 2140 LED curtain offers true RGB color illumination and also features the automatic color calibration technique. Useful in a wide variety of applications - and specially prepared for TV studios due to the (Genlock) feature - no cumbersome external power supplies are necessary as each unit features a direct power in and power out connector. Each unit contains a switch mode power supply covering all worldwide voltages. In addition, the LC 2140 has direct in and out DVI connections for video signal with simple daisy chain capability. Light weight yet with a tough construction built to withstand the rigors of the touring market, modules are exceptionally service friendly. Easy to assemble, they come in a 2 x 1 meter size. Offering a simple plug and play digital media solution for clubs and retail environments, Maxedia Compact defines the consumer level for the growing media server market. It offers Maxedia software in an attractive and small system designed for powerful video and animation playback and real time manipulation. The DMX controllable Martin RGB Laser 1.6 is a unique and hassle-free Class 4 white light laser with balanced cool white that comes in an extremely compact housing. It features simple plug-and-play operations, software package included, hundreds of pre-installed effects, and a cooling system that eliminates the need for expensive and bulky water cooling. The Mania EFX700 is a stunningly visual, high powered 150W discharge effect light - a dazzling flower effect with an array of vibrant colors, 12 cool new gobo designs, mechanical dimmer, separate shutter for fast strobe effect, and 12 pre programmed macros to keep the dance floor jumping. Astoundingly bright for a 150W discharge effect, the Mania EFX700 casts an impressive and widely dispersed display of aerial effects from a rotating parabolic mirror dish. The Mania EFX800 is a 150W discharge effect light - a broad sweeping flower effect punched through a rotating glass color paddle. The light output has an amazing 170 degree spread - wider than any flower effect light in its class, which means you can cover more space with fewer fixtures. The EFX800 houses a separate gobo wheel with 12 gobos, rotating parabolic mirror dish, mechanical dimmer, separate shutter for fast strobe effect and 12 pre programmed macros. Jem Roadie X-Stream is now available in a high output compact version. Based around the same principles as its big brother, the rugged Roadie Compact features dual, high-output 1.5KW heat exchangers in a powerful fog unit designed for venues that need instant fog or haze coverage of large areas. Capable of casting a variety of effects, the Roadie Compact is DMX controllable and comes with on board controls, remote control, 9.5 liter fluid capacity and more. Based on Jem’s successful ZR24/7 Hazer, the Jem Hazer 900 is a high precision, continuously operating DMX controllable hazer.
