I use to run a small production company and I could never get away with using China lights. Plus they usually have small issues and problems with them. If you're a DJ or someone that doesn't work with production company's, you're probably fine using them for the price. You get what you pay for. I've learned that. I did use some china lasers before but I had to be slick about it.

What do you think is better: two moving spot heads to use as beams or the 5 color laser beams in a staionary unit? This is for basement use. I'd go with 10w moving heads cause I dont like it bright.
@KrisSzanto2 жыл бұрын
It depends on the effect you are looking for, the size of the space, how your controlling them amd personal preference. If you are using dmx you can always dim. If you are using haze more beams will look better... like a laser (in my opinion)

Im a bedroom DJ and host small events with friends. I planing to buy 2 x moving heads but not sure what brand to go with. Looking at 70W Orbit moving heads now. Would you even think about buying this without a DMX controller ??
@KrisSzanto Жыл бұрын
Hi, thanks for watching. I personally am not a big fan of any of them without using dmx control. I havent used orbits so I cant speak for those. If you do decide to get a pair without using dmx, I would suggest seeing if they offer a slow mode, adjustable sound active and possibly a totem mode or mode to limit movement to 180 or 90 degrees. The movemet limit is the least common. I would also suggest at least having an easy way to turn the lights off and on. Hope this helps.

@@theaverageguy3884 Alot of the lights allow you to access auto modes from DMX too. So even if it is a small controller and you know little to start this would allow you to at least turn them off without powering them off which can be beneficial. There are some controllers that are making this easier, but it all depends on how much you want to spend and how much control you want.

@JivRey2 жыл бұрын
I have a question for you. I have some Shehds lights (18x18w RGBWA+UV) and here's the problem. If I try to control the strobe via DMX, using a software or a controller it doesn't matter, the light just shut down while the value is being changed. So no way to slowly increase or decrease the strobe, and the strobe has precedence over any other functions. See the problem here? When I try to do animations from a preset that contains strobe to another preset that doesn't, I can't fade from preset A to preset B over a period of time, which has always been possible, even with the cheapest lights. I don't know if I express myself correctly. Does your light act the same way? While you move the strobe slider, the light is like waiting for the value to stop before executing the new strobe speed.

From a quick look at the specs and price here is what i see. The rx2 tilts more, has multiple ranges which you can limit and 25w leds opposed to 15w. Which all sounds great for someone who wants to use auto modes, needs super bright lights and deeeep pockets. If using dmx and hanging them you can get 8 of the shehds for price of 1 of the rx2s. Or 2 and 2 back up units with plents of money for more lights and a haze machine. Lol. Thanks for watching and commenting. Oh... just got a Shehds 19x2 jms webb big bee eye video coming soon.
