0:00 It's Christmas time, people are always looking for new lights
Right, it's Christmas time, people are always looking for new lights. So this one here is no exception. It's from a company called Nova Pro and it is the Lightbatten 1M, short for 1 meter. But it's not short, it's 1 meter long. 24 4 watt LEDs, RGBW. Also comes with its own small little controller, comes with a bag, of course the power supply or the, sorry not the power supply, the power cable. But it is battery powered, which means that once it's got a good charge, you can unplug it and stick it anywhere, even where the sun don't shine. And it's going to work. You don't need to look for a plug and try and find somewhere where there's a plug and a cable and an extension cable and all sorts and people trip over stuff. No, there it is. There is the light button. There's nothing attached. Right, so 24-4.
1:15 Turn the lights off and that's quite a nice effect
4 watt LEDs, comes with a controller. Concentrate on this now really. If you're not familiar with DMX then don't panic because Nova Pro have taken care of that by having a small controller. So what you can do, say you buy two of these, don't think you've got to have two controllers. No, if you... Set one of them as the master, you use an XLR cable and you go from the out to the in of the other one. Then of course whatever you do on one will happen on the other but then again you see it'll happen anyway because you're using the controller and so long as the two light buttons have got birds a bird's eye view of the controller they will copy and mimic What you're doing on the controller. Now, I did say in the description there will be strobing effects in this video, so pay attention. Here we go. All right, there you go. Right, so turn the lights off and that's quite a nice effect. So even for like a rave or a club night, something like this is amazing. Now at the moment it's on sound to light.
But you can set it to have its own shows and of course like I said DMX. Now one of the great features of the light button is sensitivity mode. So for example, let's go off strobe, so for example let's say you have two of these right next to your DJ console, right next to the speakers. Set the sensitivity quite low which means the microphone doesn't have to work as hard. Because it's right next to the PA. On the other hand, set the sensitivity quite high if you've got them quite a distance away because it needs to hear the sound. Of course, if you want them to do sound to light. Alternatively, what you can do is you can just set some kind of scene or show where you could just maybe have them just gently rise to a steady bright green and dim again and then rise again and dim. So for example, a lot of weddings I've done...
3:00 Let's just complement that with some purple uplighting
The bride, the groom, or maybe I've walked into the room and I've looked, I've gone, it's purple. Let's just complement that with some purple uplighting. So you don't say what you're going to do, you just do it. People walk in and go, this looks pretty good. And the bride and groom are always very impressed because they've said, well, the DJ knows what they're doing. They're professional. They haven't come in with just a couple of flashy lights and just thought sod it. They've actually thought about what they're doing. They are keeping the emotion. ...in the room instead of having a flashy light red, green and blue when everyone's tried to do purple. OK, so there you go. And also white. Yep. Every colour. RGBW. It's not just red, green, blue and white. Once you get all of those colours, you get a mixture. We've got yellows there, we've got purples, we've got indigo, we've got sapphire...
All sorts of colours. Right, so there it is. Light baton, one metre from Nova Pro. There will be a link in the description to the Nova Pro website and don't forget, it is battery powered. Once it's had a full charge, this should last for a good gig easily. So if you're going to do a gig for like six hours, you should be fine. Practice and enjoy. Thank you.
