Cyc Out from Blizzard Lighting

[caption id="attachment_278368" align="alignnone" width="800"]CycOut[/caption]

Blizzard Lighting’s Cyc Out RGBW fixture does double duty as both a cyc light and a strobe. The Cyc Out comes fitted with 256 (64x R/G/B/W) 3W LEDs with a 60-degree beam angle. Just like classic strobe fixtures, the light is projected forward and enhanced by a parabolic reflector (rather than directly forward, like most LED strobes). The fixture’s beam angle can be shaped using the equipped two leaf barn doors, plus, the strobe rate, intensity, and duration of the pulse are all fully controllable in both standalone and DMX modes. The multi-mode strobe functions include dual zone control and individual strobe rates for each color, plus separate duration and rate controls for impressive, xenon-like blinder effects, all without the need for gel.
