Following success of its Inno Pocket Spot, ADJ introduces the company’s next generation compact moving head, the Pocket Pro. Offering all the same features as its predecessor, this new fixture adds the flexibility of replaceable GOBOs, four additional GOBOs, a powerCon input and also offers brighter output, without an increase in retail price.
Powered by a 25W white-light LED (increased from 12W on the Inno Pocket Spot), the new Pocket Pro is designed to produce a vibrant beam equally suited to mid-air effects and GOBO patterns. The fixture has a 15-degree beam angle and is fitted with a manually-adjustable lens, which can be used to alter the focus of the beam to suit different projection distances.Independent color and GOBO wheels provide users with creative control over the unit’s output.
The color wheel has seven vibrant options – red, orange, yellow, green, UV Purple, Blue, and Pink – plus open white. Meanwhile the separate GOBO wheel features seven slots filled with detailed metal GOBOs, some for pattern projection while others are suited to generating mid-air beams.Each of the GOBO patterns is replaceable and the unit’s casing has a hinged design, allowing the top cover to be removed for access to the GOBO wheel. Individual GOBOs then slide out, allowing alternative patterns and custom GOBOs to be inserted in their place. As standard, the fixture is supplied with a set of four alternative metal GOBOs. These include a pattern featuring multiple stars of varying sizes, as well as one that depicts a pair of rings surrounded by the outline of a heart for use at wedding celebrations.“The original Inno Pocket Spot proved extremely popular, both for mobile entertainers’ portable lightshows and permanent installation in smaller entertainment venues,” says ADJ USA’s National Sales Manager, Alfred Gonzales.
“Therefore, we are very excited to now be able to introduce the Pocket Pro which raises the bar set by the Inno Pocket Spot even higher. This extremely compact and immensely affordable moving head offers lighting users a powerful 25W light-source as well as the flexibility of replaceable GOBOs alongside a host of other useful features.”
The Pocket Pro is able to shoot through its wide 540-degree pan and 230-degree tilt angles at speed, but with micro-stepping motors – is also capable of slow sweeps and positioned static projections. The unit’s feature set is completed by 0-100% digital dimming – with five selectable curves (Standard, Stage, TV, Architectural & Theatre), GOBO shake, variable speed digital strobing, and random slow to fast pulse effects.The fixture offers a choice of three operating modes: DMX, Sound Active, and Internal Show. It is supplied pre-programmed with four built-in lightshows and is designed to be used without the need for a separate controller or any programming skills. Multiple fixtures can also be linked using XLR cables for Master/Slave operation while extra interest can be added to a multi-head system by using the Pan or Tilt Inversion modes to cause some heads to move in the opposite direction to others when linked together.Wireless control of one or more fixtures can be achieved using either ADJ’s UC IR remote control or Airstream IR iOS device infrared adaptor (both sold separately). For full control over the unit’s movement and output it is also compatible with DMX with a choice of two different channel modes: 11 or 13.
The Pocket Pro has an upgraded powerCON power input, as opposed to the Inno Pocket Spots IEC input, that locks into place.
Measuring 6.37” x 7.87” x 11.30” / 162 x 200 x 287mm (L x W x H) the fixture is designed for installation in venues with low ceilings and also for use by mobile entertainers and DJs who have limited transportation and storage space. The fan-cooled fixture is also lightweight at 7.3 lbs. / 3.6 kgs. Fitted with rubber feet and supplied with a removable Omega bracket, it can be placed directly onto a stage/riser or rigged to a truss or podium.
The Pocket Pro is available now from ADJ USA; September 2017 from ADJ Europe.
