Hi,
I'm looking for opinions on a new setup for bigger venues, as of yet I haven't purchased anything so your input is greatly appreciated.
Judging this on a) value for money, b) effectiveness as a complete setup c) overall asethetic
My proposed kit is as follows:
Ultimax goalpost stand 2.5m height x 3m width (supports upto 50kg evenly spread) £309
Evenly spread 4x ADJ tripar profile £260 [1]
second fixture in on each opposing end 2x ADJ X-move 25R (1 either end) £660 [2]
2x chauvet swarm 4 £180 [3]
1x laserworld els - 200rgb, acting as a centrepiece £220 (or similar, although I do own one) [4]
LEDJ tri LED starcloth 3x2m £459
4ft deckstand £89 (existing)
LEDJ tri LED booth starcloth £260 (existing)
All lights hung from the ultimax stand in the following configuration, as per numbers provided in square brackets.
1 - 2 - 1 - 3 - 4 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 1
Total cost £2437 (cost to upgrade to myself £1868)
All lights would be under dmx control in custom created chases & shows to control/influence the timing of all lights ensuring it isn't a free for all with all lights on at once.
Naturally if there is any way to save/replace fixtures with more effective units (even at additional cost) I would be willing to hear however I wouldn't like to spend much more than £2000 as a cost to supplement what I already have.
Your thoughts & critique are as always welcome.
