Buy laser for the perfect show

You want to go one better at the event or concert? Sure you do! If you buy the right show laser, you can accompany the music with harmonious light effects. From small disco lasers to highly professional show lasers - at LTT you will find the laser that fits your project.

Why buy a show laser?

There's something magical about laser lighting effects: the focused beams of light cut through the room to the rhythm of the music. On large stages, wandering lasers direct the audience's gaze and create pinpoint effects to push the mood. Lasers create a party mood. Lasers are simply a part of disco and large concerts. Thanks to the accompanying control elements, you project lasers in different colors into the room. Effect machines such as hazers, fazers and fog machines turn the air into a canvas on which the points of light dance. In professional light shows, lasers can even paint three-dimensional images in the air.

Buy laser, but which one?

It's a question that various stakeholders ask themselves at some point, for example:

• Disco and club owner
• Bands and solo entertainers
• Concert organizer
• Stage designer
• Event technician
• Amusement park operators

When choosing the right show laser, you should first clarify what range of functions you need: Should it be a party laser with preset programs? This is cheaper and very user-friendly, but not very variable for special light effect wishes. This type is also called an effect or club laser. For the big show and an individual laser show you need a professional high-end laser.

Party laser: compact show master

If you host parties in rather small rooms every now and then, a small laser effect device is absolutely sufficient. With a low weight, the laser can be quickly mounted and aligned anywhere. Laser diodes for one or two colors are hidden behind a sturdy housing, which are played out either music-timed or as an automatic program (music and auto mode). Light and dot effects are possible, allowing up to 32 different light patterns. An infrared remote control provides convenient control.

Buy professional show lasers

For the very large audience and club conditions, it must be a professional laser device. This creates a greater range, more colors and individual lighting effects. In high-end lasers, the optics are designed to withstand the rigors: dust cannot enter the sturdy housing, and thanks to silica gel, the lenses are immune to moisture and fogging, so that the light comes out razor-sharp. Powerful fans operate particularly quietly, so that even use at trade shows or on the podium is no problem. You can control the output of the individual colors separately on professional devices, which makes adjustment child's play. More and high-quality diodes allow mixing of different colors, which significantly expands the colorful spectrum.

How do I create a laser show?

For a good laser show you need three things:

• the right show laser
• a laser control
• Accessories like switches, cables and bouncers

Laser effect device

The heart of your laser show is the output device, the show laser. It now belongs to every musical event and of course in the club. The laser beams are tuned to the sounds and beats so that they create a multi-sensory experience and encourage dancing and partying. For the full range of possibilities, many different effects are possible; even patterns and graphics can be projected into the room.

Controls

To ensure that the lighting effects match the sound experience exactly, you need laser control software. You can use it to design entire laser shows in advance. But you can also control the show laser professionally during the live performance and get excellent laser effects.

Accessories

Everything you need for the optimal, safe and trouble-free operation of your show laser can be found under accessories for lasers. These include: • ILDA connection cable, • DMX adapter, • Safety units incl. emergency stop switch with key safety device, • Laser Bouncer/Mirrors and • Transport cases for show lasers

Safety first - the correct handling of effect laser devices

"That little bit of light...?" Always keep in mind that lasers pose health risks. It's true that the light is not focused as much as with medical or industrial lasers. Still, you should follow precautions with show lasers large and small to ensure safe use. One important factor is the laser class.

Laser class 2M

With class 2M, lasers may be used without special protective measures. It is only necessary to ensure that no one looks into the bundled light beams for a longer period of time. So if the laser does not wander around, but remains motionless for some reason, the show laser should be switched off immediately.

Laser classes 3R and 3B

More hazards are posed by lasers with converging lenses or magnifying glasses to further enhance the light effect. For lasers of class 3R or 3B or more, the applicable regulations must be observed: The beam must not pass through the eye area and only instructed persons may operate the laser. Large event organizers have laser officers for this purpose.
