Give Me Five

Follow the industry’s number one in the matter of RGBAW effects on another journey. More RGBAW effects are waiting for you. The result of the special LED mixture is the projection of clear white and orange. The color diversity is impressively enriched – for the first time this is also true for a PAR spot.

Say hello to the new members of GIVE ME FIVE:

KLS as cheap Kombo Pack

November 1st, 2011 Posted in EUROLITE Tags: , , ,

Eurolite KLS-150

That’s modern, mobile lighting. 1 stand with a KLS and an additional light effect – 8 times in different combinations. Something for every taste and demand, take a look – it’s worth it…

Enlarge the mobile light sets and make them more powerful, brighter and more diversified. To find the right set you should watch the respective video clips and read our basic thoughts on the Kombo Packs.

The sets are different such as your demands are. But what have been the important principles while composing the packs? On the one hand the sets differ considering their light power. This is due to to the different additional effects and due to the different KLS (150 to 1001) which feature different power levels. Prices are a good guide line – the more expensive, the more explosive the Kombos.

Another characteristic are the additional effects. The KLS take care of the basic light. Depending on the Kombo Pack, this basic light is enforced or mixed with varied light effects. The video clips will help distinguishing. There are three different ways of controlling the sets. Via sound, auto mode or DMX (the latter is not true for the Kombo Pack 7). Talking about DMX it’s a great advantage the KLS possess additional IEC sockets. Cabling and addressing are alleviated accordingly.

KLS Kombo Packs are best suited for mobile DJs, solo entertainers, combos, bands, party rooms, hotel discos or youth centers.

F-3 Fazer Flightcase 230V900W - 51702680Keep dry!

With the F-3 Antari shows the answer to the question how a modern and sophisticated fazer should be equipped. At first, it’s the housing which catches the eye. Thanks to the case covering the unit is very sturdy, can easily be transported and stacked.
But the modern and silent air pump system is even more remarkable. This system produces an unbelievable dry fog leaving no residue. Even the heater stays dry and thus can achieve a much longer lifespan. Moreover, the fluid consumption is considerably low – 1 liter provides five hours of fogging.

Antari HZ-350 Hazer w/wireless Remote - 51702685Control needs no cable

The HZ-350 Hazer is a concession to customers demanding a reliable and comfortable radio control. Et voilà, the newly designed transmitter perfectly fits the hand and has an operating distance of up to 50 meters. That should be enough a distance for most applications. Its options with only two buttons (on/off) is kept easy with intent. Easy is the keyword, as the innovative LCD control offers a clear and uncomplicated structure. It allows users to set the hazer directly by just moving their fingertips. Simple – but convincing.

Omnitronic Little Helpers – Part II

Little Helper

In the second part we’d like to present you the remaining “Little Helpers” from Omnitronic. After we have focused on DI-Boxes, isolators, cable testers and signal switchers in the first part, it’s now about mini mixers and preamplifiers.

First comes the passive mini mixer OMNITRONIC LH-010, that can distribute the signal of four audio sources to one output. That makes it possible to create simple submixes or small mixers which can be extended with some channels for an additional group, for example for multitrack recordings or spot microphones. Another possibility is the use on stages to connect multiple guitars at the same time to avoid switching and disturbing noises during a concert. Different output levels of several guitars can already be adjusted in the run-up to a performance. Due to its passive construction, the LH-010 can also be used as 1 to 4 splitter, for example to supply multiple active speakers with the same signal without looping through all speakers. With two LH-010 the output signal of a mixer can be split for further processing in different media (PA, webcam, records, etc). Read more »

Little Helper from Omnitronic – Part I

Little Helper

Let’s talk about the so called „Little Helpers“ from Omnitronic. They have already simplified or even saved quite a few events. In the first part of our series we are concentrating on devices which can rather be found on live settings. Installation and studio environment are the topics of the second part.

It is probably the absolute classic assistant in event industry: the DI-Box (DI means “direct injection”, sometimes also “direct input”). On live stages the DI-Box has to complete three missions at once. First of all, impedance transformation. To directly supply a signal from keyboards, synthesizers, electric guitars or basses into the multicore and finally into the FOH mixer, the very high-resistant output impedance of these instruments has to be transformed. Normally, an electric guitar has an output impedance of several thousand ohms whereas a microphone features only a few hundred ohms. Now, the DI-Box, from a technical point of view, transforms an instrument signal into a microphone signal – thus preparing the signal for further processing in a mixer. The inputs of the instruments’ amplifiers are equipped accordingly and thereby don’t have to be supplied with a transformed signal. Because of this it is possible to simultaneously tap the input signal of the DI-Box and to feed it into the amplifier, which is mostly used as stage monitor. Read more »
