Chauvet Mega Moon

0:01 Bit of a demo here on this light from a company called Chauvet

Alright guys, bit of a demo here on this light from a company called Chauvet. It's known as the Mega Moon. Now you will notice we've got tape on it, there's stuff attached to it, looks a bit dusty. What I'm doing with this demo, or what I've done, is I've done a bit of reverse psychology here. Normally when I do demos they're pristine pieces of kit just come out of the box and there it is. Now that's all well and good. But what happens in six months time when it's been out of the box and it's been batting around a little bit and you think, you know, oh my goodness me, I'm sure it works when it comes out of the box. But what is it like after it's done a round or two in a club, in a barn, in a pub, it's been on and off? Then here is your answer. Alright, so what are we dealing with here?

2:01 Ellaskins, The DJ Tutor

We're dealing with an LED light that's been battered a little bit. It's been chucked around a little bit, but it still works. Back of the unit, this guy here, it's known as the safety loop because that's what it says there. More importantly though, this is for the extra attachment to let's say your light trussing rig or your T-bar. Especially in the UK now, I'm pretty sure it's law Ellaskins, The DJ Tutor. One of these would do the trick because it will fill a room. Depends, of course, on how and where you set it up. In other words, how you set it up. If you have it on the floor, it's not going to do much good. If you have it head height, it's going to be a lot better.

But if you have it above head height, facing down about 20 or 30 degrees on the dance floor, then it's going to not only fill the dance floor but it should So now, I don't know, unless you've got some chap that's about 500 foot tall, that is going to, well, that's going to cover a rather large expanse. Much better. OK, you may be wondering, yes, it's a little bit dodgy on that tripod, but, come on, you would not put that right next to your speakers where people could trip over. If you're going to do something like that, You are going to have that behind you away from the general public. Exceedingly important. Right guys, there she blows about seven foot away from the wall. Watch this now.

Boo. Boo. Why am I doing that? Well, very, very responsive microphone on the back. That's pretty good actually. Colours are very vibrant, very bright.

And you do get some nice effects, very interesting. A bit of a tap. Bearing in mind as well like I said it's only about 7 foot from the wall so if you imagine that was for example 30 or 40 foot from a wall it would fill an entire room. Still a little bit light outside, bit of smoke in the room. Mega Moon from Chauvet. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
