Leading Swedish technical solutions provider AV1 has invested in its first Robe MMX Spot moving lights to add to their growing lighting rental stock.
They have been using Robe products since around 2004, when the G?teborg based company purchased its first Robe ColorWash and ColorSpot 575E AT units ... which are still in constant use and have proved exceptionally reliable over the years.
AV1's owner Kristian Kavale first saw the MMX Spots when he visited Prolight+Sound Frankfurt last year with one of his clients. The client was very keen on using them on an upcoming project and so he knew already that he was guaranteed a quick ROI.
Since then, the MMX's have been out on a whole string of different jobs, many of which have been LD'd and operated by AV1's Albert Engvall.
Engvall comments, "Robe was the first manufacturer to come out with a smaller, brighter and lighter weight discharge fixture in this category which offers lots of light output and plenty of features.
"When we were considering buying the MMX's, the potential of the combined animation effects was a big part of it ... but these also need using wisely."
The MMX fixtures have been on a myriad of different AV1 shows, ranging from the main entertainment stage at Gteborg's famous Liseberg Amusement Park during their season to weekly TV shows with a selection of local and international artists.
