Based around Robert Juliat's 600SX Series profile, the Aledin™ benefits from the famed double condenser optical system and retains all the features of a standard Robert Juliat profile.

Aledin's low power consumption is of value where power availability is limited, whilst the choice of colour temperatures make it equally at home in a theatre or opera house lighting rig, whether tungsten or discharge. Aledin is also suitable for environments such as historic theatres or museums, since there are no UV or IR emissions to damage sensitive fabrics or exhibits.

"The pro audio market has seen a recent return of larger format subwoofers - most of which are very expensive and often esoteric, with limited application flexibility," remarked Nathan Butler, EAW principal engineer. "The SB2001 goes lower, gets louder and moves more air - which is a remarkable value, given the cost."

The driver mounting of the SB2001 maximizes cone area and allows for the integration of an extremely low turbulence port while minimizing frontal ar

One VMC grabs video signals of up to 4096 pixels from a DVI source and converts them to DMX channels, while multiple VMCs can be daisy-chained to convert an entire video via DVI signal for projects requiring more than 4096 pixels. The VMC features very flexible pixel mapping capabilities for demanding LED installations ranging from a few hundred to one million pixels.

Each VMC has an internal active DVI signal booster for repeating and boosting the DVI signal when multiple VMCs are clustered to control video installations greater than 4096 pixels. A default image file can be uploaded onto the VMC, using a PC, for display in the e

Light output is exceptional for an LED profile yet the MAC 350 Entour is highly energy efficient. It delivers 8,000 lumens of output from efficient 50 W white LEDs, an output greater than many larger and more expensive 250/300 watt fixtures.

The MAC 350 Entour houses eight easily interchangeable dichroic colours with split colour effects and continuous rotation. It houses six rotating and indexable gobos, all new designs that are easy to change. Beam angle is 25o.

The Flash8 is a full-range speaker in a polypropylene enclosure, available in active and passive versions, (8A and 8P) featuring Celestion 8" woofers, designed for PA and all general sound reinforcement uses.

The Celestion 8" woofer comes with an enlarged voice coil (1.8" as opposed to 1.5" in the Next8) which means the speaker offers increased power handling and greater extension at lower frequencies. Meanwhile, the newly developed large format HF horn offers higher efficiency in the HF region and better coverage. HF duties are handled by 1" tweeters with titanium diaphragms.

Despite its small size, the Proel Flash8P will handle 150W continuous input (300 Watts peak) and will deliver 96d

PowerTrack takes the information about the levels lights are at in cues, which it extracts by importing showfile data from ETC Eos/Ion, MA grandMA or Strand 300/500-series consoles, and combines it with information about fixture types and their power consumption that is available from the RigTrack rig management module. This means that it can calculate the approximate load of any given cue - in doing so taking into account not only the level that tungsten lights are at and the constant background load of discharge fixtures, but also the status of more complex fixtures such as moving lights that reduce their discharge lamp's output power when the mechanical dimmer is closed.

In addition to calculating t

Selador was entered for the award by ETC's Dubai based distributor, Oasis Enterprises. David Gray, architainment division manager, says, "Quality of light output is an important feature in an energy efficient fixture, and the PALME award recognises this. It is always a challenge to convince professionals that one Selador Vivid Ice fixture can replace 16 Source Four PARs in Congo Blue; or that the same fixture then also be used to generate Sky Blue which would have required eight PARs. But by setting up demonstrations and shoot-outs, we can prove this amazing technology to end users first hand.
