The 66th Eurovision Song Contest will be held on May 10, 11 and 14 at the PalaOlimpico in Turin. Since the event is taking place in Italy, we knew it couldn't be without equipment from Claypaky. They include:
144x Sharpy Wash
120x Sharpy X Frame
100x Xtylos and Mini Xtylos
70x Arolla HP and Stormy CC
Sharpy X Frame
Claypaky introduces the multi-functional Sharpy X Frame to its family of award-winning Sharpy fixtures.
The Sharpy X Frame leverages the best features of the Sharpy line and integrates a quad-focal mica system into a lightweight, compact fixture. The light source is a powerful 550W arc lamp that makes the fixture extremely bright and produces deep, vivid, and uniform colors (including an unparalleled deep red).
This fixture has the flexibility to be just the light you need. The Sharpy X Frame is a completely hybrid, multi-functional fixture that is not limited to beam effects - it can also be a spot, profile or wash fixture.
With a zoom range of 3° to 52° (spot mode) and 2° to 29° (beam mode), the Sharpy X frame allows for unparalleled visual effects. The unit features a 160mm front lens and proven Claypaky optics for sharp images.
Mini Xtylos
Claypaky's Mini Xtylos is a compact fixture featuring an innovative 20,000-hour RGB laser source that produces saturated, deep colors with no visible hotspots thanks to its unique Turbo Color system.
The fixture offers a linear virtual CTO, one effect wheel with two rotatable and interchangeable prisms and one interchangeable frost filter, 24-bit digital dimmer, high-speed digital strobe and zoom in from 1° to 4° to produce amazing beam effects.
Claypaky's Mini Xtylos is a compact luminaire featuring an innovative 20,000-hour RGB laser source that produces saturated, deep colors with no visible hotspots thanks to its exclusive Turbo Color system.
The fixture offers a linear virtual CTO, one effect wheel with two rotatable and interchangeable prisms and one interchangeable frost filter, 24-bit digital dimmer, high-speed digital strobe, and 1° to 4° zoom to produce amazing beam effects.
In addition to the typical family features found in the Xtylos model, its smaller counterpart has several new features, such as infinite pan rotation in both directions that can be controlled at different speeds.
Arolla Profile HP
There are a lot of moving heads available on the market, but very often their common feature is the lack of power and features sought by rental companies, who need the most functional solutions that guarantee a quick return on investment. The gap that exists on the market is filled by the Arolla Profile HP model, which is characterized by high light output and functionality.
The big advantage of the Arolla Profile HP model is its functionality: zoom 5.8°-50. 5° (10:1), CMY color mixing, six-color wheel with CRI enhancement filter, linear CTO, six rotating gobos, seven fixed gobos, animation disk, four-plane rotating prism, Claypaky framing system on four focus planes with dedicated macro channel, 16 Iris blades, soft-edge filters, 24-bit digital dimmer and high-speed digital strobe effect.
One of the key features, of the new Claypaky moving head is its small size. Compared to others in its class, it's one of the most compact LED profile moving devices, but still with one of the highest power LED sources.
