  1. If you are used to The Strand GSX, a Zero88 FLX (full version) would be an ideal step. I found the transition very straight forward and the syntax lines made perfect sense.
  2. I will say I have never experienced this issue. I have around 17/18 of these units in use regularly. One quirk I have found is that if you have (for example) a 24 channel desk, you cannot put the fixture starting at 21. Even in 4 channel mode, it will not operate unless there are 'free' channels after the last 'attribute/fixture' channel.
  3. Looking for the following if anyone still has parts sat on shelf that they are hoping to move on. Sennheiser G2 rackmount kits and splitter/booster kits Sennheiser G3 rackmount kits and splitter/booster kits Thanks in advance
  4. This was indeed true to the original Minim. When the Minim series was relaunched a few years later, I believe the lamp capacity was upgraded. White version being 300w and Black version being 500w https://www.theatrecrafts.com/archive/documents/1_1_2_minim.pdf
  5. Hi have around 16 U'King fixtures (200w Par slim Metal type). https://www.uking-online.com/product/8-pcs-b117-par-can-4in1-rgbw-18-leds/ You have to take them for what they are, but the colour, brightness and quality for what you pay for them is actually really good. Are they as good as an ETC fixture? Ask the same question about a Budget Smart car compared with a Volvo XC60............. I haven't had no issue with them yet, I would say I have seen worse built fixtures that cost more to buy.......Use the fixtures for the right purpose and scenario and they may impress you.
  6. Hi Woolstore. What beam angle are they? Roughly what price per fixture would you be looking for? Regards

  8. Hi Gareth. I saw these and grabbed them. At least the venue can replace the 1k’s now………
  9. Interested. Drop me a pm. I have tried send an email but it bounced back.

    Agree with all of the above.
  11. I am involved as a director of a community theatre looking to get some additional lanterns for stock. Ideally looking to get lanterns that use GKV600 lamps (strand SL, Stand Brio or CCT Freedom) to match in with existing stock (to keep spare lamp stock to a streamline minimum). Are there any of these lanterns about at a decent price please?

    I personally don’t think the Selecon Ramas are a patch on the 743’s. If you could repair/ do maintenance work on the 743’s that would be the best option.
  13. Not sure of your budget or if you prefer Powered or Passive Speakers, but the Yamaha DXR-8 Speaker is worth looking at.
  14. Got to admire his enthusiasm Nothing wrong with enthusiasm, it's all about getting the correct people involved for projects such as this, no matter how big or small. The main issue seems to be money. Some organisers don't care as long as they don't have to pay.
  15. Why do people take the risk doing these jobs, thats the question........
