Martin Stage Bars
 |
Phaseshift Productions recently took possession of 12 new Stage bar Ls,
to add to their LED inventory.
The new Stage Bars arrived in Australia and went straight to their first gig arriving 2 hours before doors at a corporate show held at The GPO Alto. The events Lighting Designer Hugh Taranto was keen to see the new LED fixtures. The moment the fixtures arrived Troy Brown and Rob Oswald of Phaseshift went to work setting up the stage bars which neither of them had worked with before. Both Troy and Rob where impressed with their ease of set up and operation.
With Hugh Taranto stating that the new “stage bars where worth waiting for” he was very happy with there output. The client said that they finished the room off perfectly.
The very next day the fixtures headed straight to Sydney for the ‘Sounds of Light show’ held at Acer Arena with LD Dave Taylor using the Stage Bars on the front truss for audience wash.
Dave was very happy with the output of the Stage Bars and the look of them. With the ability to use a spectrum of colours with the white and amber LEDs, he would not hesitate to use them again on his next gig. There was no question of the quality and brightness coming from this compact fixture.
Accompanying the 12x Stage Bars L on Sounds of Light was 16x Mac 700P, 12x Mac 700W, 7x Xspots 32x Par64s and 21x Colour Commands.
