May 22, 2007 @ 3:42 pm · Filed under ETC, Elation Professional, lighting fixture, new products

  • Full RGB color mixing
  • 7 DMX channels
  • On-board DMX (addressable via 10 dip switches)
  • Full dimming capacity
  • Built-in sound active programs
  • Sturdy, high-impact aluminum construction
  • Heavy duty rigging yoke
  • Very low power consumption
  • Very low heat output
  • Long-life LEDs (50,000 hr. life)
  • 3-Pin DMX Input & Output

  • 11.5" x 8.5" x 8.5" (not including hanging bracket)
  • 11 lbs.

We currently have this fixture set up in our lobby, along with an ETC SmartFade console.

If you’re in the area, stop by and play with it!

Revolution now has Wybron Inside!

May 10, 2007 @ 11:39 am · Filed under ETC, Rosco, Scholarships, Wybron, gel, intelligent lights, lighting fixture, new products

Beginning May 17th, every new ETC Source Four Revolution® will be shipped with a 24-frame-capacity "Wybron® Inside" color scroller based on Wybron’s industry-standard Coloram® technology. This means highly accurate and faster color changes – all of the time.
In response to suggestions from top-level lighting designers, ETC has worked with Wybron engineers to make Revolution’s pioneering cartridge-style color scroller even better, with pin-point accuracy and higher speed. Wybron’s scroller technology combines with Revolution’s other great features to bring you the ultimate in "made-for-theater" automated lighting.Revolutions already in the field are not left out, either. A kit is now available for converting existing Revolutions to the new scroller. The kit comes with complete instructions and pre-loaded code and will take an estimated 30 minutes to install. It is important to note that the new scroller does not use the same mounting technique for color strings, so the previous template for color strings is no longer valid. The new template for scroller strings is included in the updated Revolution User Manual that ships with each new Revolution. It is also available here.
You will also notice another difference in new ‘Wybron Inside’ Revolutions. The standard 12-color scroll now contains a new complement of colors. One of the colors chosen for Revolution’s stock gel scroll is Rosco 361- Hemsley Blue. New York City Ballet Company lighting designer Mark Stanley says: "It’s a wonderful, cold blue that won’t turn muddy when dimmed." More importantly, though, Rosco donates the proceeds to the Hemsley Foundation, which benefits aspiring lighting design students. Hemsley Blue is named for Gilbert Hemsley, legendary lighting designer and educator. ETC is proud to support Rosco’s efforts on behalf of the Hemsley Foundation.
