Date Posted: 4/13/2023
ETC will be returning to Frankfurt for Prolight + Sound 2023 with a showcase of the latest in lighting technology, stage machinery, product seminars and more from the 25th-28th April at the Messe Frankfurt.
On stands C53 and C45 in Hall 12.0, ETC will present a selection of its newest entertainment fixtures and controls including the next generation of ETC’s automated framing luminaires: High End Systems Halcyon.
This best-in-class range consists of Halcyon Gold, Titanium, and Platinum, offering matching feature sets, exceptional colors, and increased output at a reduced cost.
Visitors will also see the new ColorSource V family featuring both Spot and Fresnel fixtures. With many of the features from premiere fixtures at an accessible price point venues around the world are already excited by their possibilities. With Multiverse® wireless, NFC, and a five-color array that brings both soft pastels and bold,
punchy colors, all that’s left is to choose between spot or wash!
Having received much attention at the recent USITT Expo in St Louis, the newly launched
Source 4WRD Color II will be on the stand. The powerful, new version of the color-mixing LED retrofit offers an intensity increase of
36% in warm whites and unlocks the world of additive color mixing for your existing Source Four incandescent profiles.
The latest in lighting control will be available for visitors to interact with including the powerful Eos Apex 10, Apex 5 and Gio @5 as well as High End Systems Hog 4-18.
The new line of Eos consoles offers an innovative, programming surface with advanced technology and award-winning software.
ETC product specialists will be on hand to share further information on the latest releases as well as presenting several new seminars during the four-day show. On Tuesday 25th, ETC Product Manager for Entertainment Fixtures Jim Uphoff will
present ‘LED Variance and the need for Calibration’ from 12:00 – 13:00 CET in the Manufacturer’s Forum, Halle 11.0. This will be followed by ‘Hands-on Hog – Myths, Shortcuts, Tips and Tricks’ at 15:00 – 17:00 CET (in German) by Lighting Designer Andreas
