American DJ Vortex 1200 LED moving head
Product no: 9000-0009-9382 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

American DJ produce a large amount of exceptional products, including this Vortex 1200. This moving head is equipped with sixteen lenses, creating a marvellous moonflower effect. As the head with the lenses rotates a full 360 degrees, you're able to create a swirling pool of illuminated mayhem. The light is produced by twelve 10-watt RGBW LEDs, that give the Vortex 1200 its great light output.

American DJ Vortex 1200: the possibilities

With an adjustable beam angle (5 - 44 degrees), you can create beautiful effects; think of gorgeous fans that sway through the room, for instance. The Vortex 1200 is equipped with special, powerful motors that allow the rapid movements of the head. A number of colours are pre-programmed, making this moving head ready for action straight from the box. This moving head features a professional powerCon power connector for both input and output, allowing you to daisy chain up to eight of these fixtures.

Several modes

The Vortex 1200 can be controlled by music or via DMX, making it a great stand-alone light effect as well as a universal moving head for larger productions. The light can be dimmed from 0 to 100% and even has a dazzling strobe function.
