Product
Description
The SlimPACK™ 56 package includes four SlimPAR™ 56 lights, one
Obey™ 3 controller, four 10-foot DMX cables, and a CHS-SP4 carry bag.
The SlimPAR™ 56 is a compact, low-
profile LED par that can be used
when a compact wash is needed because it fits where other lights cannot.
With automated programs and power linking for autonomous operation, the
SlimPAR™ 56 works great for quiet installations due to silent operation
and lack of moving parts.
The Obey™ 3 is a compact DMX-512 controller for LED fixtures that
includes preset, chase, and macro modes. You will have full control of your
light show with
full fader and blackout control, and adjustable audio
sensitivity.
The CHS-SP4 holds accessories for the entertainer on the go. The soft bag
is custom-
designed to carry the SlimPAR™ 56s, the Obey™ 3, and all
connecting cables. Five internal padded compart
ments and two external
components allow quick, safe, and easy access to your lights.
