Scenario 01 — Large Format
Concert & Festival
High-output rigs built for long throw distances, fast cue changes and, when the stage is outdoors, full IP65 weather protection. We size the beam angles and fixture count to your actual trim height and throw distance — not to a generic package.

Common challenges
- Throw distance. A beam that looks sharp at 8 m turns to mush at 40 m. Wide beam angles simply cannot hold a defined shaft across a stadium.
- Ambient light. Dusk sets and daylight festival slots wash out low-output fixtures, killing contrast before the show even starts.
- Programming speed. Dozens of cues per song demand fast pan/tilt and instant colour changes — slow mechanics cost you the look.
- Fleet scale. Addressing, firmware and fault-finding across 100+ fixtures is where most rigs lose hours.
Our approach
- Narrow-beam optics. SL-B280 / B400 / B600 deliver 2°–4° beams with high centre intensity, holding a solid shaft well past 40 m.
- Headroom for daylight. 600 W and 800 W flagships (SL-B600, SL-H800) for large stages and high ambient light.
- Fast mechanics. Three-phase motors drive full 540°/270° travel in about 2.2 s with 16-bit positioning accuracy.
- Network control. SL-C2 outputs Art-Net with RDM — batch-address the whole rig and read back fixture status from FOH.
