The continuous rotation on both Pan and Tilt axes is the central characteristic of this seven RGBW LED unit. Compact, light and economical, the MagicBlade-R offers the lighting designer imaginative and creative possibilities with an almost endless myriad of effect looks. The breadth of DHL's client base is testament to their wide appeal. "TV productions, concerts and especially festivals at the moment: the Blades are all out there showing their extraordinary range of features."
Merrilees adds: "As a dry hire company, we keep a very close eye on what production teams and designers are specifying and it appears to me that, since Ayrton have joined the Ambersphere family of manufacturers, their profile and popularity have increased dramatically. There's no doubt in my mind that it is the Ambersphere team who are responsible for that. It is, without doubt, the fixture of the summer."
DHL's rental catalogue also includes two of the most recent offerings from another manufacturer under the Ambersphere umbrella: Clay Paky. The Stormy CC and the Mythos are both present in significant numbers. "The Clay Paky Stormys have really come into their own since the spring," explains Merrilees. "They are working just as hard as the MagicBlades; we struggle to keep up with demand on occasions."
