Multiform to Launch MultiSpot GII at Prolight + Sound

Multiform Lighting will exhibit at Pro Light + Sound in Frankfurt, April 6-9 on Stand D39 in Hall 11, the stand of the company's German distributor World-Media Showtechnik GmbH. The stand will be manned by Jurgen Hutmacher, Markus Grimm, and Dirk Linnenweber.

Multiform will release the MultiSpot GII. Available in two versions the HP3 (RGB - 90W) and the HP5 (RGBAW - 70W), both luminaires use a convection-cooled die-cast case suitable for inside (IP20) and outside (IP65) applications. For indoor use, the device is provided with XLR5 and Neutrik PowerCon connectors. These are replaced by waterproof PG9 glands supplied for outdoor situations. A dual-purpose hanging bracket provides for floor standing or suspension from a truss or lighting bar. Also available are user changeable lens panels with different beam angles.

Designed for use as a medium range flood light, the MultiSpot GII HP3 has thirty 3W single-chip RGB MulTriLEDs producing 3,550 lumens with a beam angle of 35 degrees. This provides a very bright uniform color output which can be controlled in either RGB or advanced HSL color-mixing mode using one-four DMX control modes.

The MultiSpot GII HP5 uses eight 1W red plus six 3W green plus six 3W blue plus eight 1W amber plus six 3W White LEDs to produce 2,600 lumens and the widest range of color control including subtle pastel shades. The beam angle is 25 degrees but can be changed to 10 or 40 degrees using alternative lens panels. The flexible DMX control scheme has six DMX control modes, from RGB through RGBAW and HSL, with either combined or separated dimmer/strobe channels The switched mode power supply with wide-range input and PFC enables either version of the MultiSpot GII to operate on almost any mains supply. In addition, the temperature of the LED panel is monitored by the MCU with an automatic limiter to prevent overheating.

At the rear is a large LCD control panel with five push-buttons to select DMX or master/slave operating mode, sound-to-light mode, 19 preset colors, 23 preset color fades, adjustable dimmer curve, adjustable white balance, and adjustable modulation frequency for full TV-camera compliance.

DMX control can be set to RGB or advanced HSL (hue, saturation, lightness) mode with either combined or separated dimmer/strobe channels.

Multiform's products are distributed in the US by Apollo Design Technology.
