New Strand Theatrical Luminaires are Now Shipping, including LED Version of Iconic Leko ProfileStrand, a Signify (Euronext: LIGHT) entertainment lighting brand, announces that their new line of LED theatrical luminaires are now shipping. The new fixtures, which include an updated Leko LED Profile, feature an RGBALC color system and target theatres, houses of worship, TV studios, and other performance spaces. "There has been strong excitement about the new Strand luminaires, and customers are eager to see the fixtures in person," says Martin Palmer, senior product manager, Vari-Lite and Strand Luminaires at Signify. "The wide color spectrum, high CRI, and easy-to-program SmartColor Control system have generated a lot of excitement in the market, and we are eager to have more customers see how truly excellent the quality of light is on these fixtures." SmartColor Control on the new Strand luminaires allows programmers to quickly leverage the full power of the RGBALC (red, green, blue, amber, lime, and cyan) color mixing system with less effort using traditional CYM+CTO controls. The Strand Leko LED Profile and Cantata LED Fresnel are also available in two white output versions -- a warm tunable white (2,700K to 4,500K) and cold tunable white (4,000K to 7,000K) variety -- for better reproduction of skin tone and other colors on stage. The tunable white fixtures offer a consistent CRI exceeding 94 across all color temperatures, as well as high TM30 and TLCI values. "The full RGBALC color system in these theatrical fixtures ensures designers can achieve the same deep colors they once obtained with gels, while the cold and warm tunable white options on the new Leko and Cantata luminaires offer designers beautiful color rendering across the entire temperature spectrum," explains Palmer. "Thanks to SmartColor Control, designers can achieve these colors faster and more precisely using the CYM+CTO controls they are familiar with." The following luminaires and now shipping: • Strand Leko LED Profile -- the modern successor to the Strand Leko, this profile fixture is available in full color, warm tunable white, and cold tunable white varieties, with >94 CRI, TM30, & TLCI and variable fan control across all models.
