Ayrton MagicBlade-FX - 7 x 35W RGBW LED Moving Head Tilt Bar with 3.6 to 53-Degree Zoom in Black Finish

The Ayrton MagicBlade FX is an exciting, versatile moving head luminaire designed for a wide range of applications, including stage, architectural, and video productions. As the latest evolution in the MAGICBLADE series, the MagicBlade FX brings an impressive combination of advanced technology, powerful lighting output, and creative capabilities. With its sleek design and next-generation features, it provides lighting designers with the flexibility to create striking visual effects and powerful lighting compositions. Ideal for live performances, television productions, and high-profile events, the MagicBlade FX offers a blend of precise beam control, vibrant colours, and dynamic effects.

At the heart of the MagicBlade FX is its revolutionary optical system, which uses a 15:1 zoom ratio with a beam aperture range from 3.6° to 53°. This optical system allows for seamless transitions between tight, intense beams and broader wash effects, making it perfect for creating dramatic stage lighting or ambient washes. The fixture features seven squared 65 mm lenses that combine with an ultra-powerful, low-etendue RGBW multi-chip LED emitter. This configuration allows the MagicBlade FX to project extremely powerful beams with crisp, clean separation between LED sources, providing rich, detailed lighting effects without visible colour shadows.

With a total luminous output of up to 4,200 lumens and a luminous intensity of 579,600 candelas in narrow beam mode, the MagicBlade FX is capable of producing intense, focused beams that stand out in any environment. Its RGBW colour mixing system offers a wide spectrum of vivid colours, from rich saturated hues to soft pastel tones, with a high Colour Rendering Index (CRI) to ensure accurate and consistent colour reproduction. The fixture supports 4.29 billion colours and features a virtual colour wheel with temperature presets, providing designers with an extensive palette to work with. The MagicBlade FX also includes dynamic colour macro effects with adjustable speed for even more creative possibilities.

The MagicBlade FX is equipped with advanced 8-bit and 16-bit resolution stepper motors, ensuring smooth, precise, and accurate positioning. Its continuous, unlimited rotation on both the pan and tilt axes allows for flexible movement, making it easy to direct the light wherever needed. The fixture's automatic repositioning ensures that it can return to its original position after movement, maintaining accuracy and precision throughout its operation. With its ability to operate in all positions - floor or mounted - the MagicBlade FX is an incredibly versatile tool for any production.

For added creativity, the MagicBlade FX boasts 2D and 3D graphical effects capabilities. The fixture includes built-in pattern effects with speed and fade controls, which can be used to create stunning visual displays. Whether used in beam, wash, or matrix configurations, the MagicBlade FX excels at creating dynamic effects, including volumetric lighting displays and intricate visual patterns. Its white or colour strobe effect is adjustable from 1 to 25 flashes per second, providing designers with additional tools to enhance the dramatic impact of their light shows.

The fixture's built-in cooling system ensures optimal performance even during extended use. The MagicBlade FX features a phase-change liquid cooling system, which uses a heat pipe to manage thermal dissipation effectively. The self-adjusting fans provide quiet operation and the selectable ventilation modes (auto, stage, and studio) allow for flexible performance in different environments. The fixture also includes safety protection against excess temperature, ensuring that it can operate continuously without risking performance loss.

For ease of installation, the MagicBlade FX comes with a robust mounting system. It includes two Omega 1/4 turn brackets for standard clamps and four 1/4 turn locking fittings for secure bracket installation. The fixture also includes a safety cable attachment point for added security during operation. The lightweight and compact design, combined with its two side handles, ensures that the MagicBlade FX is easy to transport and set up, making it ideal for touring productions and high-demand events.
