USA/Europe - The new Encore DBX from ADJ is designed to create attention-grabbing visuals for concerts, events, and productions. This IP65-rated, full-colour, twin cell audience blinder features a rear reflector illuminated by secondary RGB colour mixing LEDs, adding a distinctive background glow to the fixture’s output.
A pair of potent 150W RGBAW colour mixing LEDs provide the Encore DBX’s main light source, capable of generating an intense output of up to 11,465 lumens in a wide spectrum of colours. Each LED offers independent dimming, colour mixing, and strobing control, providing lighting designers with complete flexibility. The fixture offers variable white colour temperature control ranging from 2700K to 6500K, as well as a Tungsten Control Mode that allows the creation of classic warm white blinder effects. In addition, full colour mixing allows for the creation of dazzling coloured blinder, wash, and strobe effects.
RGB colour mixing LEDs are embedded into the unit’s edges, which illuminate a textured background reflector. These can be used to generate vibrant background glow effects for the primary blinder LEDs to punch through, providing another dimension for creativity. Built-in programmes are supplied for both the primary blinders and background LEDs, aiding swift programming, and the LED refresh rate is configurable to remove flicker when used for broadcast applications.
With a rugged IP65-rated enclosure, the Encore DBX is built to brave the elements. It features a robust variable-angled mounting yoke, which locks securely into place using a pair of thumb-tightening screws and features Omega bracket receivers. In addition, a second set of Omega bracket receivers is located on the rear panel of the fixture, allowing direct mounting to a truss or lighting bar without the use of the yoke.
“The Encore DBX isn’t just a blinder – it’s a creative tool,” says Alfred Gonzales, ADJ USA’s director of sales. “By combining a traditional blinder layout with the flexibility of full colour mixing and unique background glow effects, we’ve given lighting designers a fixture that can deliver classic looks as well as cutting-edge visual moments, both indoors and outdoors.”
Multiple Encore DBX fixtures can be seamlessly connected in an array pattern, either horizontally or vertically, using the custom locking pin system. Up to eight units can be suspended in a vertical configuration.
