Understandable. But is it bigger than a breadbox? Does it use standard/EDLT Source Four lens tubes? Are the gobo slot and color frame a standard size? Does it have a power pass-thru?...They wouldn't let me take pictures as the fixtures are still prototypes. ...
Understandable. But is it bigger than a breadbox? Does it use standard/EDLT Source Four lens tubes? Are the gobo slot and color frame a standard size? Does it have a power pass-thru?
And did they turn it on side by side w/ a standard S4 lamped at 750w?
Tom, I believe that is actually the Coemar Reflection LEDko which we discussed here: http://www.controlbooth.com/forums/...039-coemars-new-release-reflection-ledko.html .Gear source booth was also showing an LED back for the source 4. It is still in development, but looked to have some serious promise. The ones demo'd, were only 100 watt and were in 6000K and 2900K. They have a 250 watt source of LEDs that they are going to try next. Right now the prototype uses the Pulse width Modulation scheme for dimming and at the very low levels you can see a little flickering that goes away when it hits the chosen level. They are working on a D/A to convertor, that would control the dimming through current changing. The cool thing is that when not using the source 4 shutter assembly and lens tube there is a Fresnel lens and collapsing type girls scout cup assembly.
This thing is a bit from the final platform, but shows some real promise. Especially considering that it is being developed by one man, the owner of gears source, and doesn't have the large engineering resources of ETC. ...
Hey Tom, I think you were looking at the DMXIS software, I got a long video demo of their new software, the DMX PRO software, which has an introductory price of $299. Very nice.
Got to see the new Apollo Wrenchmate in it's final form, a single integrated C wrench with essentially a megawrench on the other end.

Now THAT is an awesome idea. Kelite and Jfleenor... two of my favorite people working for two of our favorite companies... please make it happen! I bet SteveTerry could arrange for a Gio to control it. The perfect demo!I thought for sure you were going to say you wanted to see a chainsaw on a right arm.
I thought most of this was addressed/discussed here:
...It was as if the entire room had been shangaied -- one moment everyone was waiting to get up and leave less anyone have additional questions for Fred about ETC; the next moment we're staring at LED Source Fours that have probably been pointing at Fred and turned on for the entire presentation without any of the CUE attendees knowing it.
...
As Fred described in his own words, this is the the Holy Grail of lighting products. I think everyone in the room today would agree with that statement -- if he hadn't revealed that the fixtures pointed at him weren't incandescents, nobody would've been the wiser: intensity, color quality, beam quality -- nothing was a giveaway that the Source Fours had LED sources instead of tungsten sources.
