Ideal for high-impact, big beam effects and longer throws, it houses the same high-quality feature set as Martin’s MAC Viper AirFX, including a vibrant color mixing system and stunning aerial effects. It has also inherited the same compact form, impressive speed and superior light quality using the same 1000 W source as the other Viper Family luminaires.
Tighter beam – higher intensity
With 80 percent greater intensity than the MAC Viper AirFX, the MAC Viper Beam can cut through all forms of ambient lighting. Its linear zoom - a unique feature for a beam luminaire – creates a tighter beam and the auto-linked focus means that hard-edge effects hold their focus throughout the entire zoom range and at varying throws. Beam gobos can adjust along the entire zoom range and unlike other fixtures, light output is constant with no visible beam jump from tight to wide.
The MAC Viper Beam houses a selection of all-new aerial effects on two gobo wheels – a rotating gobo wheel with five replaceable designs and a fixed gobo wheel with seven designs. The CMY color mixing system offers a superior palette including true reds, rich ambers, primary green and deep blues with added color choice from a 7-slot color wheel. A linear CTO provides daylight to tungsten CCT control and expansion of the CMY palette.
Beams can be manipulated using a combined dimmer/shutter with intensity effects for instant blackout or smooth fades all the way to blackout. Additional effects are possible from a fast and tight iris with adjustable dynamic effects, as well as a frost that can snap or fade in for beautiful hard-edge or narrow-angle wash effects. Various strobe effects are also possible.
The MAC Viper Beam is available as an easy-to-install front lens replacement kit for any standard MAC Viper AirFX. The lens kit installs (and uninstalls) in only a few minutes with no need to change internal parts. For the lighting designer this means another great lighting tool while the rental house benefits from added flexibility and enhanced value for their MAC Viper AirFX portfolio.
