The Martin Professional MAC Encore Wash WRM is a high-performance moving head wash light designed to deliver superior quality light for a wide range of professional applications, where accurate color rendering and high-intensity performance are paramount. This LED-based fixture is a perfect replacement for the discontinued MAC TW1, offering warm 3000K color temperature and advanced features that make it an ideal solution for both studio and stage applications. It combines cutting-edge LED technology with a refined optical system, providing an unmatched combination of brightness, color control, and exceptional light quality.
At the core of the MAC Encore Wash WRM is its 468W custom LED engine, delivering a pure white 3000K output with excellent color rendering. With high CRI, TM-30, and R9 values, this fixture ensures that skin tones, costumes, and set pieces appear true to life, enhancing the visual experience for both the audience and camera applications. The fixture also provides flicker-free operation, making it ideal for television, film, and other camera-sensitive applications. A wide zoom range of 14° to 60° is powered by a precise 1:4 zoom ratio that ensures smooth transitions between wide coverage and tight beams. This makes the fixture versatile for both high and low-ceiling venues, providing crisp, even light without any noticeable color temperature shifts.
For designers seeking greater control and versatility, the MAC Encore Wash WRM features a CMY color mixing system, delivering a vast color palette that ranges from vibrant saturated colors to delicate pastels. The fixture also includes a six-slot color wheel with interchangeable dichroic filters and an open slot, enabling designers to create an even broader spectrum of colors to suit any creative need. Additionally, the variable CTO control (daylight to tungsten) allows for precise control over the color temperature, making the fixture highly adaptable for different environments and settings.
One of the standout features of the MAC Encore Wash WRM is its internal barndoor system, equipped with two adjustable shutter blades that can overlap for full blackout. The barndoor system rotates 100°, allowing for precise framing and control of the lit area. When combined with the fixture's ultra-precise iris, designers can crop the beam's wide axis with remarkable accuracy, similar to a studio Fresnel fixture with barndoors. This system offers exceptional flexibility and allows for seamless cue repetition with high precision.
For dynamic effects, the MAC Encore Wash WRM includes the Animotion FX system, which allows for stunning 3D mid-air and projection effects. The system features internal dimming effect macros, with continuous rotation and adjustable speed, adding depth and motion to lighting designs. The fixture's whisper-quiet operation is achieved through a combination of convection and forced-air cooling, with a user-selectable output-to-sound level control, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments such as live performances and television broadcasts.
Designed for ease of use, the MAC Encore Wash WRM offers a straightforward control interface with a backlit graphic display and jog wheel for quick setup and addressing. The fixture supports a wide range of control protocols, including DMX, RDM, and Art-Net, allowing it to integrate seamlessly into any lighting control system. With a user-settable ID number and support for fixture software updates via DMX or USB memory device, the MAC Encore Wash WRM offers long-term reliability and future-proof performance.
In summary, the Martin Professional MAC Encore Wash WRM combines advanced LED technology, superior color mixing, and exceptional precision in a quiet, reliable, and highly versatile moving head wash light. It's perfect for applications requiring high-quality white light, excellent color rendering, and seamless integration into both creative and technical lighting designs. Whether used in live theater, television production, or corporate events, this fixture sets a new standard for LED-based wash lights.
