Ayrton reissues the VersaPix, launched in 2012, this time in the RS version, with ultra-tight beams of 3.5° and a record on-axis intensity of 200 cd/lm.
The configuration of this fixture, with five LED sources splayed out in a 90°, fan-shaped array, allows for heretofore-unseen designs, whether they are used used together or separately – spheres, saucers and other original 3D effects.
Designed by Stéphane Migné with 30 fixtures programmed by Arnaud Pierrel, this demo is, once again, mesmerizing.

Each source is a new Osram 40 W multichip RGBW LED, with an emissive surface of only 4 mm2, coupled with the largest optic in the range: a 94 mm lens that boasts an optical yield of 82%.
It is this combination that allows Ayrton to achieve a tight and punchy beam: 3.5° at 200 cd/lm, also thanks to a new patented individual cooling system that draws air into the back of the source and out around the edge of the lens.
The design of this fixture is beautiful, with its five large sources, with individual housings that protrude like the rocket engines of a spaceship ready for lift-off.
The electronics include a power supply with power factor correction, flicker-free LED drivers, two DMX control modes (13 and 29 channels), RDM support, three ventilation modes (automatic, studio and stage) and factory programmed effect macros.
