The VL550 wash luminaire is based upon Emmy Award-winning VL5 Wash luminaire, but with significant design improvements. The drive system quiets all two-phase motors both when moving and static. Three-phase, ultra quiet stepper motors provide for smooth and quiet pan and tilt operation. The patented and innovative DICHRO TUNE radial color mixing system employs three sets of 16 radially mounted dichroic blades magenta, blue and amber designed to produce smooth, full spectrum of color cross-fades. This luminaire is also available with pastel versions of standard colors. The pastel colors offer softer Broadway-type color palette often used in live theater.
