American DJ's Mighty Scan Shows Muscle For New Millennium

LOS ANGELES -- American DJ Supply is muscling in on the new millennium with the Mighty Scan, one of the most potent -- and affordably-priced -- intelligent lighting effects ever created. This mighty DMX scanner/projector has everything needed to put on a "once-in-a-thousand-year" light show . . at about half the price of other intelligent fixtures with as many on-board effects.

Rippling with visual excitement, the Mighty Scan can produce a powerhouse repertoire of 20 different gobo patterns (plus spot), and 20 brilliant dichroic colors (plus white). The Mighty Scan will also strobe in every color, transforming the room from a pulsating frenzy of fiery reds and ambers to flashing electric blues and magentas. Split colors can also be created in any combination for added thrills and intensity.

With its endless color-pattern possibilities, the Mighty Scan is the perfect effect for the new millennium, because it can evoke images of any musical trend of the century, pointed out Scott Davies, General Manager of American DJ Supply.

"This is a great effect for the year 2000, because a lot of clubs, DJs, and bands are looking back through the century and playing music from all different eras," said Davies. "With so many gobos, colors and moods, the Mighty Scan can set the stage for any type of party or musical style."

For example, take a time trip back to the `60s "flower power" decade by shining a spectacular yellow-and-purple sunflower gobo across the room, while psychedelic music plays. Or combine the richness of a dark aqua color with the splash gobo pattern, and watch the crowd "wipeout" to surfin' music on the dance floor. Whatever the party theme, the Mighty Scan will pump out a century's worth of explosive visual effects.

At a suggested list price of $749.95, the Mighty Scan might also be one of the biggest bargains of the century. It may well change the way clubs and DJs put on a visual show in the next millennium, Davies predicted.

"We think the Mighty Scan is representative of where intelligent lighting technology is headed in the year 2000 and beyond," Davies remarked. "In the past, it wouldn't have been possible to produce an intelligent light with so many different effects at such an affordable price. But now with innovative fixtures like the Mighty Scan, even small clubs and DJs will have the power of `super-loaded' intelligent effects within their reach."

The Mighty Scan can be operated with any DMX-compatible controller, including

American DJs Show Designer and DMX Operator, giving it the versatility to be used in light shows with other intelligent fixtures. It can also be run in stand-alone mode.

Equipped with state-of-the-art stepper motors for exceptionally smooth image movement, the Mighty Scan includes six DMX Channels, X/Y mirror movement, and a high speed shutter for strobing in every color. Compactly designed for mobile use, the Mighty Scan measures 14.25" x 5.75" x 7.5" and weighs 28 lbs. It comes with a ZB-ELC/3 24V, 250W, 300-hr. lamp.
