Creative director for Tiësto Koen De Puysseleir specified 26 Nexus 4x4 eye-candy wash lights to build the booth façade. The Nexus 4x4 wall of two fixtures by 13 worked for a powerful visual impact and became the centrepiece of the stage, visible from the back of the venue.
"In my search to a new and unique effect to use as a centerpiece DJ-booth design I stumbled on this product on the ArKaos website," Koen said. "After reviewing the Nexus 4x4 I was very confident this product would give me the high-end look I wanted for the show. Used in the right way this product has infinitive ways to create mesmerizing new effects. To achieve the desired looks I used the product in 52-channel mode with a ChamSys MagicQ MQ300 as a controller. When we were testing the booth for the first time at PRG everybody came out to have look; that says a lot for me. Thanks, Chauvet, for making one of the best new LED products I have seen in a while."
Jeff Novak was lighting board operator at the event. "The panels are just great; very bright and compact," he said. "These 26 panels lit up the entire arena. The effects that can be programmed into them are limitless and I think they are a great choice to be placed in front of a DJ."
"Our newest and already popular fixture Nexus 4x4 helped bring to light Koen's vision of an impactful design," said Chauvet national sales manager DeAnna Padgett. "We are thrilled to have such respected artists and creative minds requesting our fixtures for their tours. With the big punch, smooth lighting and flexibility that the Nexus 4x4 delivers, it's an easy choice."
