Martin Gets in Tune for PLASA Focus: Nashville

Join Martin Professional July 11-12 at the Municipal Auditorium in "Music City" -- Nashville, Tennessee -- for PLASA Focus where a new breed of moving head and much more will be on display at Martin stand 103.

Martin invites lighting professionals to get an up-close look at the new MAC Viper Profile along with a host of other innovative products like a new AirFX version in the MAC III family, an all-new VC series of creative LED video solutions, the award-winning MAC Aura and popular MAC 101 moving heads, a new portable lighting controller in the M-Series, and a new compact hazer in Martin's Jem family.

MAC Viper Profile: Following an overwhelmingly positive response from both lighting designers and rental companies, leading to the biggest pre-sale success ever in Martin's history, this new profile is now shipping. According to the company, its efficient optical system outperforms market-leading profiles in the 1,200W range and with over 26,000 lumens of power from a 1000W HID source -- it is brighter than 1,200W fixtures, and outperforms them in terms of speed and compactness. Power consumption is lower and output is approximately 55% more efficient than the 1,200W fixtures it replaces.

MAC III AirFX: The MAC III AirFX is a versatile beam, effects, and wash luminaire in one and is the latest high-performance 1,500W moving head in Martin's MAC III family. Capable of projecting a dense, hard-edge beam with stunning mid-air aerial effects, the company says the MAC III AirFX's unique optical system allows it to adjust from a tight beam to a wash instantly. Beam gobo projections can adjust along the entire zoom range for a refreshingly diverse variety of mid-air looks, and the fully linear zoom gives no visible beam jump from tight to wide.

Creative LED Video series: Martin launches the world's first series of true video products to combine simplicity with quality. Driven by Martin's P3 System Controller family, part of the series is formed by a variety of video dots called VC-Dot 1, VC-Dot 4, and VC-Dot 9 (each offering a different size and brightness). VC-Dots are the perfect solution for integrating LED video technology into a façade, stage design, ceiling, or any other structure (indoors or out). Also available is the VC-Grid 25, a small, 200 x 200mm LED video module with 25mm pixel pitch. Its compact size makes it extremely suitable for integration into stage designs, set elements, creative ceilings, and more. Used with or without a front diffuser, multiple VC-Grids can be combined in a countless variety of ways for ultimate design freedom.

P3 Power Port 1500: The P3 PowerPort 1500 is an integrated power and data processor for Martin's range of creative LED video products, including the VC-Dots and VC-Grids. When driven by one of Martin's P3 System Controllers, it powers the connected products with image processing capabilities and easy setup and configuration.

MAC Aura: The MAC Aura is the first compact LED moving head wash light with zoom that uses two independent color systems to produce new eye-candy effects plus functions as a capable single-lens wash with fully pre-mixed color. Its optical system combines multicolor LEDs with backlight aura color mixing to produce an all-new visual palette.

MAC 101: Small and light, this simple LED moving head wash light is ideal for easy-to-produce yet high-impact looks. Featuring a tight and bright beam, rapid movement and calibrated colors, according to the company, the MAC 101 comes with a low price tag. Useful as a dynamic replacement for static PAR cans, it is an effective and versatile wash light.

M2GO: Equipped with a fast, dual-core processor, the M2GO answers the demand for a more powerful lighting controller in a smaller form. It offers a professional level of features in a portable package and the company says it has been developed with cost, ergonomics, feature set, size, and weight in mind.

Jem Compact Hazer Pro: The Jem Compact Hazer Pro is a new haze machine from Martin Professional designed for the highly demanding professional market. Its ability to produce atmospheric haze effects in a short period of time makes it ideal for nearly any application. Low noise operation at slow fan speeds means it is suitable for noise-sensitive environments while a host of other innovative features make the Jem Compact Hazer Pro the perfect choice for rental houses, shows, theatres, TV studios, clubs, bars, cruise ships, theme parks, and much more.

See Martin Professional at PLASA Focus: Nashville, July 11-12.
