I am going to have roughly $1500 spend and change-out/update my Lighting Rig. I have an idea of what I am looking at, but I want to hear what your suggestions would be.
Here are some notes:
- I am lighting up a 6-10 piece wedding/corporate party band. Some of the band members do have a darker skin tones.
- Stages are generally 20’-24’ in width, but sometimes have been up to 40’ in width. Typical stage depth is 16’ but it can range anywhere from 8’-30’.
- Performances are usually in Hotel Ballroom and most of the hotels have a strict “NO Fog or Haze” policy.
- I do use the Amber LED color to brighten up the faces.
- The Lighting stands can put the overhead lights up to 10'-12' in the air.
- Lights are you be purchased through a USA dealer/rep.
- Old light rig is being sold
Current rig consist of:
AmericanDJ MyDMX (original) as the DMX controller
4: 36x 1watt RGBAW Par575 lights; 25 degree beam angle, Red:6 Green:8 Blue:8 Amber:6 White:8
2: 60x 1watt RGBAW strip lights; 25 degree beam angle, 12 LEDs on each color
Set-Up: I have 2 LED Par575 lights on lighting tree (prewired) that sits on each side of the stage beside the speaker stacks. The LED bars are then lying across the ground to wash the stage as well. The Pars are aimed head level, while the Bars cover the lower portion of the members.
