Inno Pocket Scan & Inno Pocket Roll |
Rotobeam 4 |
| August’s DJ Expo saw ADJ displaying a number of unique products and this video sees Dr. Ray Goodlight (aka Hose Heredia) holding two ‘baby’ fixtures – the Inno Pocket Scan and the Inno Pocket Roll. Both featuring 12-watt white-LED sources and a combined GOBO/color wheel, these lightweight, super-bright produce incredible scan and roll effects. Jose (sorry, Dr. Ray) also explains how the fixtures look great mounted on truss – though clearly they look good cradled in his arms too! |
Remember the 80's Helicopter effects? Check out this new LED version of a disco classic! The Rotobeam 4 is a retro Helicopter effect powered by four 3-Watt LEDs (1x red, 1x green, 1x blue and 1x white). This easy-to-use, plug and play effect strobes and spins in a 360-degree continuous rotation controlled by the sound of music. Users may control select functions of the Rotobeam 4 with the ADJ UC-IR wireless remote (sold separately). |
