This article will showcase some of ETC’s premium product lines available at Sound Productions!

ETC ARRAY OPTIONS FOR ANY APPLICATION

Whether your space is inside or out, the ETC offers different arrays to meet your space’s specific needs:

  • Studio Daylight uses cool-white LED emitters to produce light that emulates natural sunlight, with a color temperature of 5,600K.
  • Studio Tungsten creates warm white light that mimics the performance of traditional tungsten fixtures, making it an ideal upgrade from less-efficient, conventional lighting fixtures. 3000K LEDs deliver non-variable light that looks great in-person and on-camera.
  • Studio HD combines warm and cool white LEDs with carefully chosen colors from the Selador x7 Color System. This lets you fine-tune tints and fill in white LED spectral gaps, allowing for high-definition white light.
  • Lustr®+ provides nearly limitless color possibilities, from adjustable whites and subtle tints to vibrant, bold colors.
  • Vivid utilizes ETC’s x7 Color System™ array to combine up to 7 LED colors onto one unit to deliver a balanced, color-washing result.

XT Models for Exterior Lighting

With their IP66 rating, these washes are great for outdoor applications where environmental factors could be an issue, such as festivals, theme parks, video shoots on-location, and architectural installations. Every aspect of the XT models’ design is built to handle heat, cold, rain, snow, and more—all without compromising on professional-caliber lighting performance.

XTI Models for Interior/Exterior Installations

Rugged and durable, and with the addition of dimming capabilities and enhanced color mixing, XTI models are made for permanent indoor or outdoor installation.


SOURCE FOUR ELLIPSOIDALS

Ellipsoidal light fixtures are commonly used for stage lighting. Great for theaters, TV, film, and other professional production or live performance applications, ellipsoidals are also ideal for accent lighting displays that require professional polish, such as corporate buildings, museums, galleries, and studios.

Since ETC introduced them, Source Four ellipsoidal fixtures have revolutionized the lighting industry. A clean, white beam offers pristine imaging and crisp projection via a bright, even field of light. Choose from standard and zoom models, as well as lens and field angles to get a precision fit for your project.

SourceFour Features

  • 5º, 10º, 14º, 19º, 26º, 36º, 50º, 70º and 90º field angles
  • Rated up to 750W
  • Super-efficient HPL lamp
  • Faceted dichroic reflector removes 90% of IR heat from the beam
  • Interchangeable lens tubes
  • Rotating barrel ± 25º
  • Three-plane stainless-steel shutter blade assembly
  • Tool-free lamp adjustment
  • Insulated rear handle
  • Rugged die-cast aluminum construction
  • Supports Dimmer Doubling™ (North America only)

With their energy-efficient patented HPL lamp, dichroic reflector, and optical-quality lenses, Source Four fixtures are set apart from traditional ellipsoidals, offering a cooler operation for your performance space. The cooler operation also means that your accessories (such as gels, patterns, and shutters) last longer. Meanwhile, an optional EDLT lens tube for Source Four’s 19º, 26º, 36º, and 50º models equips you for achieving even more crisp, high-contract gobo projections.
