USA - Chauvet releases the Q-Series, a range of competitively priced yet advanced intelligent fixtures designed primarily for clubs and professional DJs.

"The Q-Series brings together cutting-edge features and the value, innovation and performance you have come to expect from Chauvet," said Chauvet product development manager Barry Abrams.

Featuring a consistent design and library of gobos and colors, Q-Series allows users to mix and match units across the line and still maintain a consistent look using a variety of fixtures and effects.

The initial product launch encompasses four moving yoke spot fixtures, one moving yoke wash fixture and four scanners. All nine feature a dimmer/shutter/strobe channel, speed control of pan and tilt, bi-directional color scroll, reset via DMX, quality built in programs, and very efficient fan cooling.

Presented in exclusive silver or black casings, scanners Q-Scan and Q-Roll offer clean, crisp gobos and are fitted with 150W or 250W lamps.

Q-Wash and Q-Spot yokes are fitted with 150W, 250W or 575W lamps. All Q-Spot yokes feature smooth vector movement, interchangeable rotating gobos, automatic pan/tilt correction and 16-bit movement resolution. The power source is switchable, 110V or 230V.

More Q-Series fixtures will be introduced throughout 2006 with cutting-edge features rarely available in their price range, says the company.
