There has been a club on this centre of town site for about 20 years, but Morava is a new concept under independent ownership, with much attention paid to presentation detail and creating a trendy urban chic vibe.
PowerDance has used Robe products for at least 40 other club installations over the last few years says ika Zdenek, who worked closely with the club's lighting operator, Miroslav Werunsky on this project.
Morava is an intimate space and headroom is limited, so they wanted low profile unobtrusive fixtures, and decided on four Robe ClubSpot 160 CTs and four ClubRoller 150 CTs, which are installed on minibeam trussing. The club also features an extensive LED installation and some generic lighting, all driven by a Robe CyberControl PC-based system.
"Eight units give me more than enough options to create a good looking lightshow that I can run for several hours each night," says Werunsky.
The ClubRoller 150 CT scanner has a barrel mirror. Robe recently re-launched this club effect with completely new electronics and software. The gobo wheel features 13 new gobos and a colour wheel with 11 dichroic filters plus a UV effect filter and three multi-colour filters. The shutter is also capable of fast strobing.
The laser is rigged to a Robe MediaSpinner 50 AT to give the additional flexibility of being able to turn it in different directions.
All the Robe equipment for Morava was supplied to PowerDance via Robe's Czech Republic and Slovakian distributor, KVS.
