With a total of 38 Rush Profiles (32 - main room, six - day room), 16 Rush Beams in the main room and three Hazers (two - main room, one - day room), Club E11even chose Martin for its power and, most importantly, its reliability.
"The design grew from a bunch of ideas," stated Michael Meacham, iDesign Productions. "We saw the new Rush line at the Prolight + Sound Show in Frankfurt and we were very intrigued. We knew we needed a fixture with the power and LED engine that could go nonstop and the Rush line was a great fit for the environment. It was an easy decision for us to work with this Martin line."
There weren't many challenges once Meacham and his team selected Martin. "Having a dust-free fixture is key, especially in construction sites and when the club will be running nonstop. Cleaning the fixtures is never a problem. Structurally we custom-built everything we had including the grids and T-builds for the fixtures to hang on.
"I love the colour set of the Beams," Meacham expressed. "Along with the gobo set they are really impressive. They move quickly with great output, they really define themselves differently than the typical beam fixture, and I can happily say we've had no problems. We've run them pretty hard for quite some time and haven't had one failure. This has not been the case with other manufacturers as some burned out after a couple weeks. When you see a beam coming from above, it lights up everything."
