A lot of modern day bars, nightclubs and music venues will have some stage lights fitted to enhance the performances they put on. Some very simple effects may be achieved with a standard lighting unit such as can lights, spotlights or laser beam boxes. A far better way to put on a stunning show is to have Moving head lights installed at your premises and there are many benefits.
A moving head can be purchased in a great many sizes and designs but it is very important to select the correct configuration. They will either be ceiling mounted or can be fixed to a custom metal rack and in some cases are free standing. These lights can work in a couple of ways either through a sound activation sensor or by having an operator to control or program them to their chosen routines.
Stage lighting has a great deal of flexibility and they can spin 360 degrees and are able to twist and turn in a lot of directions. Using a mixture of bulbs in many colors the operator can achieve a number of hues and better effects when adding more units. By connecting and linking them to a DMX controller the number of applications is vastly increased.
If you choose to use theses lights using sound activation the beams rotate in time with the beat of the music track. The volume level of the music will affect the direction and spin with the effect seeming random. By linking lights to a DMX unit a technician will be able to program sequences to achieve better effect for that track or for the entire performance.
This versatile type of lighting can also controlled manually by using a controller and this can be a very useful option when lighting a solo performer who moves around on the stage. A single spotlight can be aimed on a singer and can be kept on them constantly as they move around the area. Multiple colors and abstract shapes may also be controlled by the individual who is operating the box.
For some better effects a moving head can be synchronized to a DMX box enabling a different combination of movements and patterns. Images can also be projected on to different areas of the room and some interesting effects created. The amount of bulbs in the light and the channels used to program it will determine the level of effects that may be achieved.
If you choose to buy and fit a complex system that can be programmed you will need the correct type of cabling and plug fittings to connect everything. A lighting system should always be fitted by a qualified electrician and checked for operational safety. Much of the cabling and connecting plugs can be quite costly but it is advisable to get the best quality that you can.
All lighting will at some point need routine inspections if it is being used regularly. The lights glass lenses should be kept free from any debris and cleaned and the bulbs should be replaced if they happen to fail. The motors that control the movement of these units should be well maintained and inspected at periodic intervals to ensure efficiency.
