Chauvet to Show New Products at LDI

	MVP Series

Chauvet will showcase new products ideal for the production, touring and theater markets at LDI 2011, October 28-30, Orlando, Florida, at Booth 183. These include the Legend 412 pixel-mapping moving yoke, Q-Wash 560Z-LED quad-colored moving yoke wash, the COLORado Zoom Tour PAR-style wash, the Amhaze professional hazer and the MVP Series of modular video panels.

Legend 412 is a moving yoke wash with 12 quad-colored RGBW LEDs, which are controllable in quadrants. It is a multi-purpose unit, serving as a wash, and offering dynamic chases and pixel-mapping effects. The incorporation of white emitters makes for better color rendering., the company says, while the calibration of LEDs ensures the visual uniformity of output. A variant of the Legend 412, Legend 412 VW, incorporates warm and cool white quad-colored LEDs for better, purer whites and the flexibility of color temperature selection to go from warm and inviting, to crisp and cold shades, the company says.

Q-Wash 560Z-LED a lightweight LED moving yoke wash light with a 6-32-degree zoom range, designed for highlighting specific areas or for flooding a stage with light. Powered by 91 three-watt RGBWA CREE LEDs, the company says the unit delivers massive, flicker-free output with superior color precision. A quick pan-and-tilt speed gets the fixture into position quickly. The unit has both three- and five-pin DMX connections so it can complement your existing rig seamlessly.

COLORado Zoom Tour joins the COLORado series of robust wash lights for production, touring, and rental houses. This LED-powered static wash light has an enhanced variable zoom of eight- to 30-degrees and includes a five-degree color-blending filter for more effective color rendering. A total of 37 two- and three-watt RGBW CREE LEDs installed in each unit translate into an extensive color range. The rugged aluminum housing cools without fans, which makes this near-silent fixture perfect for noise-sensitive environments, such as theaters. Due to its flicker-free performance, it is also safe for on-camera use-ideal for film sets. COLORado Zoom Tour has secure Neutrik powerCON in-and-out, as well as three- and five-pin DMX connections.

Amhaze is a road-ready, water-based haze machine well suited for large-scale applications. The unit is housed in a durable, low-profile road case designed to be set on the deck or flown from truss, complete with Neutrik powerCON connections. The company says Amhaze has a short, four-minute heat up time and a super-dry 3,000 cubic feet per minute of continuous output. An onboard display easily assigns DMX addresses and can control the fixture, while the timer system adjusts the output of haze in intervals and duration times (without DMX control).

MVP Series comprises three modular LED video panels defined by their pixel pitch: MVP 37.5, MVP 18, and MVP 12. The uniform color created by tri-color SMD LEDs and the wide-viewing angle incorporated in all three panels are essential to their sharp, high-quality image. The panels' semi-transparency adds dimension to the show and the flow-through design allows for temporary outdoor installations. Each panel measures 23.62" by 23.62" and includes Neutrik powerCON and etherCON power and data connectors. The three panels share the same mounting hardware and can connect to form an LED video wall panel system of mixed resolutions. This offers great flexibility for a designer to access several different pixel pitches within one easily interlocked wall.
