The Advantages Of Moving Head Lights

By Nancy Sanders


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.

This lighting can be bought in a number of sizes and selecting the most appropriate units for your premises is extremely important. Some units can be used as standalone floor rigs but usually they will be attached to a ceiling or a metal light rack. The effects can be controlled manually, programmed to a determined routine or through sound linked to the music system that is in operation.

This model of professional lighting is very versatile and the units are constructed to rotate through 360 degrees and are directed in different paths. Various color options can be selected depending on what kind of bulbs have been fitted. More variations may be obtained by using multiple light units or when connected to a specialist DMX controller.

If you are operating this lighting using only the sound activation mode the units will spin and rotate in time with the rhythm of the music that is being played. The movements will be completely random and differ with changes in sound and volume. By connecting the lighting to a DMX box they can be programmed in many ways well in advance of your show.

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.

When they have been connected to a DMX box infinite movements may be programmed after some basic instructions on how to operate the system. Company logos and pictures can be projected onto walls and even small sections of relevant text. The nature of the effects will solely depend on the number of light units used and on how many channels your box has on it.

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.

Every lighting rig will need some ammount of routine maintenance. The bulbs will blow after time and will require replacing. Lenses need cleaning of dust to keep a sharp image. Inside the unit itself the motors that swivel the lights will need inspecting to ensure they continue to function properly.
