About the Martin CL-MAC 2000 Wash XB Moving Lights
The Martin CL-MAC 2000 Wash XB is a professional high-output wash moving light, engineered to deliver powerful, uniform illumination for large-scale stage and event productions. It utilizes a potent 2000-watt discharge lamp as its light source, providing intense brightness and a broad, smooth field of coverage essential for bathing expansive performance areas in consistent color. This fixture is specifically designed for applications where sheer light output and expansive wash capabilities are paramount, such as in concert touring, major theatrical performances, and large corporate events, serving as a foundational lighting element that can define the stage's overall ambiance and visibility.
The fixture excels in creating vast, seamless color washes through its advanced optical system and sophisticated color mixing capabilities. It features a high-precision CMY color mixing system that allows for the creation of a virtually unlimited palette of hues, from deeply saturated colors to subtle pastels, with smooth crossfades. This is complemented by a variable CTO (Color Temperature Orange) filter for adjusting the white light from a cool daylight to a warm tungsten equivalent, providing essential flexibility for matching other light sources or creating specific moods. The inclusion of a motorized zoom lens and focus system enables dynamic control over the beam's spread and edge softness, allowing designers to morph the light field from a tight, intense pool to an extremely wide, soft wash.
Constructed for the rigors of touring, the CL-MAC 2000 Wash XB is built with a robust housing and reliable mechanical components to ensure consistent performance under demanding conditions. Its movement system offers fast and accurate pan and tilt with quiet operation, while the integrated thermal management ensures stable performance over long durations. The fixture supports comprehensive control via standard DMX protocols and is designed for easy integration into complex rigging systems. As a workhorse wash light, it represents a classic choice for professionals who require proven reliability, extreme output, and superior color rendering from a dedicated wash luminaire.
