Hello guys !
My name is Travis and I'm new to this forum.
I need some suggestions.
I am a drummer in a local band, and we need some lighting.
my lead guitar player and I have been looking at the fallowing lites, 4 lites of each:
4-Elation Active Scan 250's
4-American DJ Accu Spot 250's
4-American DJ Accu Wash 250's
We want to start out with these, and will ad more later in the future.
We currently have 2-low lying fog machines, 2 American DJ 800 Watt strobes.
Also Looking for 2 good DMX Controlled- Smoke Vapor machines for lighting effects.
We love moving Head Lites and we are greatly inspired by Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Lite show that they design, and we want to choreograph a different lite show for each of our songs on cue.
And also we have been looking at Computer software for designing our lighting designs, but can any one suggest a controller for what we are wanting to do that will work with these lites ?
Now here is the deal, My lead guitarist is also a local DJ, and we want to use these same lites for his DJ shows as a side project.
Can any one tell me if these moving head lites work well for live concerts and DJ shows ?
And also, we are wanting moving heads that strobe, dim, and have rotating gobo's.
we would like to stay in the price range of the Accu Spot 250's and the Accu Wash 250's, so if there are better moving heads "Different brand" that do better than the American DJ moving heads in the same price range please feel free to email me at parks@saw.net since other brands are not aloud to be mentioned on here, and I respect that.
Need some recommendations on some Par Cans also.
Thank you for any info. and input that any one has.
Travis
