Eurolite TS-150

I have just purchased some new lights. I have 3 of the 4 ordered, the last one is coming from a different company in Germany, but should be here soon.

The Eurolite TS-150 is a DMX Scanner that looks much like the Martin MX-4, but at a fraction of the price. I have never thought about ordering stuff from Germany before, but it certainly makes financial sense

Features:

• Bright 150 W discharge lamp
• Colour-wheel with 12 dichroic colour-filtres, 2 bi-colour-filters and white
• Gobo-wheel with 14 gobos and open
• Manual focus
• Strobe-effect with adjustable speed (1-7 flashes/sec.)

The main features that I was after was the discharge lamp (lasts much much longer and is so much whiter) and the shutter wheel. The shutter wheel makes programming a lot easier. Each light also came with a free 5m DMX cable which was nice

I now plan to do more gigs, as my light show has now improved considerably. All I need to do now is get the rest of the trussing from Komotion and I am done for now.

We are getting married

Its official, Beaconsfield Chambers has been booked for the 12th August and we have paid for our licence. Bassettsbury Manor has been booked, just need to pay the deposit now

Both me and Loo are very excited. We cant wait to start getting everything organised. There is so much to do!
