One of the stars of ADJ's PLS line-up, the Jellyfish is an LED effect with 84 RGBW lamps, housed in a clear plastic case. Like its namesake fish, the Jellyfish radiates colour through its transparent 'outer shell' which makes it two effects in one: a bright red, green, blue and white beam projector; and a glowing case that changes colours. The Jellyfish's colour-changing case actually becomes part of the light show.
Another new ADJ light addresses the demand for smaller, more energy-efficient fixtures in a big way. The Vizi Spot 5R is a DMX moving head that blasts the output of a 575-watt unit, while being about half the size and using less than half the energy, says the company.
ADJ will also be revealing the newest members of its top-selling Revo family of high-energy RGBW LED moonflowers - the Revo 4 and Revo Rave. Like their siblings, both are designed for DJs and clubs, producing a roomful of eye-popping red, green, blue and white beams, while being portable and easy-to-use in either DMX, Sound Active or Master/Slave modes.
"If there's one theme running through our PLS show display, it's that American DJ is continuing our commitment to bring the latest, most advanced lighting technologies to our core customer group - DJs, clubs and mobile entertainers. Whether it's LEDs or the new Philips Platinum 5R discharge lamp, we are incorporating these cutting-edge technologies into fixtures that are compact, reliable, easy-to-use and fit within our customers' budgets," said Scott Davies, general manager of the American DJ Group.
