Value For Money :
Excellent
Highlight of this machine, its brightness, the power of the lamp 575 is well used, the beam is very clean, and we can hardly recognize no hot spot when projected.
As we speak of light, we can also speak of the dimmer, an entire channel devoted to it which allows the use of finesse, well you see we are dealing with a mechanical dimmer type "lame" it is quite usable and does nothing to induce any projection or deformation of the beam.
Colors & gobos:
In this paragraph, my opinion will be somewhat mixed, especially in color. One feels that dress has been there, you have two bruises on the wheel but they give almost the same light tone, it's a shame, like the green, a little too bright for my taste. Pink is good, like orange or yellow. To red when it is really red (rare for the dress), and to my surprise, super efficient and bright.
It's a bit the same with "UV", which is rather a Congo. It is bright and usable in a lot of config. The CTB is fine, but as often, the CTO takes on too yellow, however, its use is nice in combination with other colors.
Gobos when to them are generally friendly, but to use my club, poorly distributed, it was too graphic kind of glass gobos on the gobo wheel turns. From a mechanical point of view, the rotation is good, very slow to very fast in both directions, time and gobo change very fast, too, is significant.
Other effects
So first, the focus mechanics, duh, it's a mechanical focus, he does what is asked of him so all is well, not much else to say except that it is quite fast.
A strength of this machine is the iris, which is almost complete closure, it allows only a thin stick of light, and a continuation of the canal, the shutter closes, and then accesses the effects Iris pulse, to fall.
The rotating prism is he too does not waste an enormous amount of brightness, it's a good point.
The strobe is fast, crisp and responsive shutter well.
Note that the reset of the machine, selectable DMX, is ultra fast.
Movements
Pan and Tilt are good, very fast, but I would have liked a more accuracy micropoil is, almost fluid near a mircochouilla, which stands (barely, and only in projection) in travel slower.
Design / Manufacturing Quality
We feel that this is still manufacturing dress is well designed inside, but not too tight either,
The DMX input and the display are above of the device.
One caveat regarding ventilation, the scans has one big fan blowing air inside the unit behind the lamp unit. It would have been better to place it in air extractor! Because dust accumulates very quickly on the outside, which after a few weeks cutting the air flow and triggers the safety lamp. Having only very rarely a means of access to these machines that are perched to 6 meters above the ground, it is not uncommon to have one whose lamp is lit 20 minutes then turns off ... etc.
Operation level, well it is simple, since 2003, apart from what worries fan, absolutely nothing to report.
The height / weight ratio is correct, although the unit is a heavy chouilla. Good value, note 8 due to the reliability
