"We developed the Design Beam 1200C to be a complete 1200W DMX moving head that meets the demands of today's lighting market and challenging economy," says Eric Loader, director of sales for Elation Professional. "People are looking for ever more powerful, yet smaller fixtures. Today's designers and clients also want versatility and value, and the Design Beam 1200C delivers with its ability to do triple-duty as a wash, spot or beam projector. This multi-functionality makes the Design Beam 1200C especially great for the rental market.
"Designers also want cutting-edge features like wireless DMX, along with lots of effects and colours," added Loader. "We've included the complete 'wish list,' while keeping the price in line with the substantial dollar value that has become associated with Elation products."Powered by a Philips MSR1200 7,500k discharge lamp, the Design Beam 1200C provides extreme light output, shooting out 107,500 lux at 25ft, and producing a very tight 6.7° beam angle. A Variable Frost feature allows the unit to function as either a spot or wash.
Equipped with a CMY colour mixing system with variable CTO color correction, the Design Beam 1200C can produce a rainbow of colours with 16-bit movement and colour fading. It also features eight static replaceable dichroic colours, including CTB and UV.
