Bauer Lighting Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head Light

500W LED hybrid moving head with full CMY color mixing, dual rotating prisms, and motorized zoom for concert touring, houses of worship, and rental production fleets.

The Bauer Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head is a 500W LED hybrid moving head combining beam, spot, and wash functions with full CMY color mixing, dual rotating prisms, and motorized zoom for concert touring, houses of worship, and rental production companies. Its CMY color mixing system, supplemented by nine fixed colors with CTO and CTB correction filters, produces seamless full-spectrum fades from subtle pastels to deep saturated hues. Dual gobo wheels — seven replaceable rotating gobos and eleven static gobos — pair with 8-facet and 3-facet rotating prisms to generate layered mid-air effects and sharp pattern projections. A 24-channel DMX interface with RDM support enables remote configuration, while 16-bit pan and tilt resolution delivers smooth positioning for programmed show sequences. With a 4.9-to-33.9-degree motorized zoom range, a 50,000-hour LED source, and Tru1 power connectivity, the system scales from arena tours to permanent worship installations with the Bauer Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head.

CMY Color Mixing with CTO and CTB Correction

The Bauer Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head features a full CMY subtractive color mixing system backed by a nine-color wheel with CTO and CTB correction filters. This enables smooth fades across the entire spectrum without hard steps, while CTO and CTB filters shift color temperature to match warm tungsten or cool daylight white points on demand. For houses of worship that transition between soft ambient washes during services and vivid palettes during worship sets, this system covers both from a single fixture.

Dual Rotating Prisms and Gobo Wheels

The fixture pairs an 8-facet rotating prism with a 3-facet rotating prism, enabling layered beam-splitting effects that add depth and kinetic energy to any lighting design. A rotating gobo wheel carries seven replaceable gobos for custom pattern projection, and a static gobo wheel with eleven fixed gobos supplies crisp textures, with operators able to stack prism and gobo effects simultaneously for complex volumetric looks. For concert touring rigs and rental fleets where high visual impact is a baseline expectation, these dual prism and gobo capabilities deliver the variety designers require.

Motorized Zoom and Focus Optics

The Bauer Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head provides motorized zoom across a 4.9-to-33.9-degree beam angle, shifting between tight aerial beams and broad wash coverage from a single fixture. Motorized focus maintains sharp gobo projections at varying throw distances, and a linear dimmer paired with a 1-to-25 Hz variable strobe adds intensity layering. This zoom range makes the fixture effective on large concert stages requiring long-throw beams and in houses of worship where wide stage washes are essential.

24-Channel DMX Control with RDM and 16-Bit Movement

The fixture operates on a 24-channel DMX protocol with RDM support for remote addressing and diagnostics over a 5-pin XLR connection. Pan covers 540 degrees and tilt covers 270 degrees at 16-bit resolution for smooth positioning, and an LCD touch display provides on-fixture access to addressing and mode selection. Rental houses and production companies benefit from RDM remote management across large fixture counts, reducing ladder time and simplifying pre-show setup on touring dates.

Build Quality, Rigging, and Power

Housed in a durable IP20-rated black enclosure, the Bauer Venue 680 Hybrid Moving Head weighs 23 kg (50.71 lb) and measures 360 by 252 by 711 mm. The fixture accepts AC 100-240V power through a Tru1 connector with secure locking distribution, and total consumption is rated at 600W with a 10A fuse. For rental houses cycling fixtures between events and houses of worship maintaining permanent overhead rigs, the robust housing and Tru1 connectivity ensure reliable operation across repeated load-in and load-out cycles.
