d3 Technologies 4x4pro

The new d3 pro range promises to take d3 to the next level. Larger canvas sizes, lossless quality, more outputs, faster media transfers, faster capture, and adaptable video output formats all promise to add up to one thing: better shows.

Offering faster rigging of stage sets, combined with improved safety, the range is already being hailed as a strong, safe alternative to home-made drop arms, which until now have been the only option for riggers.

The system uses tried and tested connectors to give a SWL of 220 lbs (100kg) and enables the safe and speedy rigging of luminaires from truss or fixed tube barrels. It also provides for a range of configurations to open up the possibility for highly innovative lighting design.

ADJ’s 12P Hex features a dozen 6-in-1 LEDs (RGBWA+UV) and a new ‘lie flat’design. The fixture builds on its predecessor (5P Hex).

ADJ’s Fog Fury Jett is a high velocity, DMX-compatible, vertical fogger that uses 12 quad-color (RGBA) 3-watt LEDs to infuse its fog effects with color for atmospheric results. Like many of the other fixtures in the Fog Fury series, the Fog Fury Jett utilizes a high performance Italian pump system for optimum output, a special heating element that uses an oil-type transmission throughout the pipeline to prevent clogging, and ADJ’s ETS (Electronic Thermo Sensing) technology to maintain optimum heat levels and a short warm-up time of nine minutes.

Elation’s Cuepix PAR 300 is a bright PAR wash light that uses seven long-life 30W 3-in-1 RGB COB LEDs for a broad selection of colors and superior, shadow-free color mixing. Wrapped in a rugged die-cast aluminum housing and projecting at a 30° beam angle, the Cuepix PAR 300 features individual control of each COB module for greater effect possibilities.

The Cuepix Batten is a 1.1 meter-long (43”) pixel-controllable LED strip light that uses ten 30W 3-in-1 RGB COB LEDs for smooth, shadow-free color blending. Designed to add high-impact colored light to productions of all types, the Cuepix Batten can be used as a pixel bar, blinder or floodlighting wash luminaire. Wide beam (82°) and field angles (106°) and individual COB module control combine with variable dimming curve modes, strobe and chase effects to make for an exceptionally flexible LED batten. The Cuepix Batten is also designed to be easy to set up, and multiple units can be easily linked together for customizable setups.

With newly-developed PCB and new advanced pump, Antari’s S-100X and S-200X promise even greater reliability and the ability to generate 50 percent more snow output than their predecessors, the S-100II and S-200. They can create both snow and blizzard effects. The only difference between S-100X and S-200X (pictured here) is that the S-200X is the more “silent” version.

The elektraBar is a 43-inch linear LED fixture that can be linked end-to-end or side-to-side for seamless, continuous coverage. Sporting 18 12W, 25-degree LEDs (10- and 40-degree lens kits available), the product’s six-in-one LEDs (RGBAWI) deliver the full color spectrum – including Amber for truly fresh tones – as well as a greater color palette than gels can provide. MSRP is $899.

The U-Torm is a new, flexible solution to the problem of suspending drop fixtures and finding tormentor positions, in a completely modular solution from Cosmic Truss. Comprised of modules and sections that fit seamlessly together with standard pipes and adaptors from the Cosmic Truss range, the U-Torm allows endless configurations for single fixtures, double hangs or ladders of multiple fixtures.

GLP’s impression X4 Bar 10 and impression X4 Bar 20 pack 10 and 20 15W RGBW LEDs, respectively, in battens measuring 20 and 40 inches. Promising high quality optics for a smooth, homogenized output across the batten through a broad palette of pastel and saturated colors, the fixtures are also designed with dimming that promises no color shift, just smooth, even fades.
