beamZ Pro MHL760 - Bee Eye LED Moving Head with Zoom and Kaleido Effect
The beamZ Pro MHL760 is a professional wash moving head that redefines versatility and visual impact in stage lighting. Equipped with seven 60-watt 4-in-1 RGBW LEDs, this unit delivers exceptional light output and a rich, homogeneous color mix. Its most distinctive feature is the honeycomb front lens system (Bee Eye), which, combined with the ability to rotate and individually control each LED, allows for the creation of mesmerizing and complex visual effects known as "Kaleido." An Aura ring composed of 39 RGB SMD LEDs adds an extra layer of creativity for eye-candy effects. Thanks to its wide-range motorized zoom and high-speed, low-noise motors, the MHL760 is a powerful and flexible tool, ideal for permanent installations in clubs, tours, stages, and high-end event productions.
Main Features
Dual High-Power Light Source: At the heart of the MHL760 are its seven 60W RGBW LEDs, which provide intense light output capable of covering large areas with vibrant colors or pure whites. Additionally, it features an "Aura" ring of 39 SMD RGB LEDs that allows you to create background and backlight effects, adding unique visual depth to any show.
Bee Eye Effect and Pixel-by-Pixel Control: The honeycomb optical design, combined with the continuous rotation of the front lens, generates intertwining and moving beams of light, creating the spectacular "Kaleido" effect. Each of the 7 main LEDs can be controlled independently, opening up a world of possibilities for pattern creation, macros, and pixel mapping.
Wide-Amplitude Motorized Zoom: The MHL760 features a motorized linear zoom that adjusts the beam angle from a narrow 6° to a wide 60°. This functionality allows the unit to transform from a defined beam effect for overhead projections to a wide wash for illuminating stages and surfaces in seconds, offering unparalleled flexibility.
Fast and Precise Movement: Designed for action, this moving head features high-speed motors that enable smooth and rapid 540° pan and 270° tilt movement. Despite its power, the motors are optimized to reduce noise, making it suitable for environments where silence is crucial, such as theaters or television studios.
Professional Control and Programming
The MHL760 is designed to integrate seamlessly into any professional lighting ecosystem. It offers multiple DMX channel modes (26, 38, or 66 channels) to suit any designer's needs, from simple control to detailed pixel-by-pixel programming. It features both 3-pin and 5-pin DMX connectors for maximum compatibility. For simpler setups, it includes nine automatic programs and a sound-activated mode with adjustable sensitivity, in addition to the classic Master/Slave configuration. Powerconnector input and output connections facilitate clean and secure daisy-chaining of multiple units.
Use Cases
Thanks to its versatility, power, and unique effects, the beamZ Pro MHL760 is the perfect choice for a wide range of applications. It's ideal for audiovisual rental companies, nightclubs, and concert halls looking for a striking effect. It's also an excellent tool for lighting designers on tours, in theatrical productions, and at corporate events where creativity and reliability are essential.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the "Bee Eye" or "Kaleido" effect?
It's a visual effect created by combining multiple LEDs that emit light through a rotating, honeycomb-patterned front lens. This generates multiple beams of light that can be individually controlled in color and movement, creating complex and dynamic aerial patterns similar to those of a kaleidoscope.
Can I control each LED independently?
Yes, the MHL760 offers individual pixel control over its 7 main LEDs. This allows for the creation of video mappings, custom color patterns, and highly advanced color "sweep" effects using the highest-channel DMX modes.
Is the unit noisy during operation?
No, it has been designed with noise-reducing motors that allow very fast swivel and tilt movements while keeping the noise level to a minimum, making it suitable for productions that require a quiet environment.
What do you need to start using it?
The moving head comes ready to use. The Powerconnector power cable and Omega quick-release clamps for truss mounting are included. To control it, you will need a DMX controller or software and the corresponding DMX cables.
