The new Stagebar 54 is a compact, powerful LED luminaire with a comprehensive color range, all-in-one simplicity and a tough temperament for the touring market. It functions as a pixel bar for displaying imagery and video or as a wash luminaire for floodlighting surfaces and stages.
Working closely with the market, Martin has addressed many of the issues in terms of the functionality and serviceability of LED Lighting. We have produced one of the most innovative, functional and service-friendly LED products on the market today.
Broader and finer range of colors
The Stagebar 54 is extremely bright - bright enough to be matched with other light sources. With five colored diodes (Red, Green, Blue, Amber and White), instead of the usual three, Martin is able to offer a broader and finer range of colors. While the amber helps extend the color range and give effective color temperature control, the white diode provides a better White Light quality and the chance to create softer, subtler pastels.
Color consistency
With the Stagebar we set out to solve what has been one of the major drawbacks of LED Lighting: color consistency. A central feature of the Stagebar 54 is the ability to create even and consistent colors. This is because each pixel board leaving the factory has been measured and calibrated, guaranteeing standardized brightness and color performance
Automatic heat management for prolonged performance
Everyone knows that LEDs have a long lifespan. But the truth is, many LED products have simply not lived up to expectations. As many lighting designers are learning, the lifetime and brightness of LEDs are highly dependent on the way the heat is removed from them. Martin has applied its unique knowledge of heat management to address this issue. In order to ensure the best possible lumen performance, on-demand fans monitor and regulate cooling. The smart heat management extends the lifespan of diodes, while still maintaining acoustic levels to benefit TV or sound-sensitive applications.
Simple set-up and installation
A prime focus in the development of the Stagebar 54 has been to circumvent some of the logistic and set-up problems associated with LED Lighting. This has culminated in a simple, unique all-in-one solution.
* Each Stagebar unit has direct power and DMX inputs so there is no need for external power supplies or additional Cables and DMX boxes.
* Loop-through power and data links let you daisy chain fixtures, saving miles of cable spaghetti.
* A battery-powered control menu on every fixture is an incredible time saver. This feature lets you configure and address the units off-site even when fixtures are not powered up.
* We have also paid attention to the mechanical aspects of set-up. The standard Omega bracket or the included mounting system allows both truss and floor mounting and doubles as a carrying handle.
* Cutouts in end profiles make horizontal fixture alignment quick, easy and accurate.
* In addition, the Stagebar 54 is lightweight at 5.5 or 7.3 kg (12.1 or 16.1 lbs.), saving weight in transport and on the truss.
Multiple color control modes: RGB, RGBAW, HSI, HSIC
To give maximum flexibility as possible, Martin has provided four distinct control modes. This gives the option of simple and effective control economizing on channels, or full, comprehensive control when a designer needs it.
1 RGB (Red, Green, Blue)
Using only three channels, this mode approximates a standard RGB output based on all five diodes
2 RGBAW (Red, Green, Blue, Amber, White)
Using five channels, this mode controls each diode independently allowing fine-tuned color command
3 HSI (Hue, Saturation, Intensity)
HSI is relatively new in lighting control. It is highly intuitive - set the effect you want by scrolling through hues (red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet), altering their saturation from deep to white, and finally changing their intensity from bright to dark.
4 HSI-C (Hue, Saturation, Intensity and Color Temperature)
HSI-C adds color temperature control to the intuitive benefits of HSI.
In addition, the Stagebar offers four pixel control modes that let you control pixels individually or in groups of 2, 3 or 6. The advantage of this is that you can save on DMX channels when working with designs that require multi-pixel blocks of color.
The Stagebar 54 is controlled by industry standard DMX 512-A. RJ-45 connectors and optional XLR adapters give maximum flexibility.
Auto sensing SMPS for worldwide compatibility
The Stagebar 54 is equipped with an auto sensing switch mode power supply and is therefore compatible with all worldwide voltages.
Reliability & Quality
As a Martin product the Stagebar 54 has been rigorously tested and has CE, ETL & CETL official approvals so you know you're covered anywhere in the world.
Service with a smile
Fast and efficient servicing saves time and money, so when it comes to service we made sure we incorporated a range of new features.
Quick access for lens and pixel changes
Changing the lenses for a different look is easily achieved via the front of the fixture. The LEDs can also be similarly accessed if they need changing.
Software updates
New software features and updates are simply added via the DMX input.
Color calibration system
As pixel life spans vary, a big cost for rental companies comes from having to replace all the pixels every time one or two die in order to ensure uniformity in color and output. To prevent this ongoing expense, Martin has included a color calibration system so you need only replace the dead pixels, and then simply calibrate the replacements to the exact output of the others. So whatever point of their life-cycle - ALL pixels in the fixture (and design) will be absolutely uniform.
Cleaning
Simple, ergonomic construction designed for fast and easy cleaning with quick access to cooling
