LONDON — The Barbican Centre London, one of Europe’s largest multi-arts and conference venues with a variety of art, music, theatre, dance, film and education events, has recently purchased 16 PixelPar 90s. “We first saw the PixelPars in action when a production company brought them in to light an event, said Bob Allen, technical manager. “We were really impressed with their light output, smooth color mixing and controllability. They are also engineered to a high standard making them robust — which is important for us as they are continuously in an out of flight-cases being rigged.”

The PixelPars are used for lighting receptions, functions, parties and branding for conferences, and they have been particularly well-suited for creating a visual impact for smaller events, reducing the need for renting other lighting gear options.

“We mostly use them in standalone mode as it saves on cabling in our reception and function areas,” Allen said, adding that “there are occasions when we need more control — then we use either an Avo or MA desk to run them.”

PixelPar 90 is a RGB alternative for PAR cans. It features 90 K2 Luxeon LEDs, giving LDs a longer-lasting alternative to traditional PAR fixtures, and also a broader palette of colors.

PixelRange distributor Flashlight supplied the PixelPars 90s.
