Description
The CHAUVET DJ COLORstrip PiX ILS is a full-size LED strip light that combines wash lighting with pixel-mapped effects for standout event visuals. Its 40 tri-color RGB LEDs provide individual pixel control, allowing users to create detailed color patterns, animations, and video-style effects. The fixture can function as an uplight, pixel mapping effect, or eye-candy lighting source depending on the application. Its custom lenses help produce a focused and visually distinctive output. For buyers seeking a versatile strip fixture with advanced pixel control, the COLORstrip PiX ILS offers a strong combination of effects and functionality.
40-Pixel Control
The COLORstrip PiX ILS features 40 individually controllable tri-color RGB LEDs, giving users detailed control over each pixel across the fixture. This pixel-level control allows lighting designers to create animations, scrolling effects, color patterns, and video-inspired visuals. Multiple DMX channel modes, including 3, 8, 120, and 122 channels, provide different levels of programming control. The individual LED architecture makes the fixture particularly useful for creative visual effects and pixel-mapped installations. It provides significantly more control than a conventional single-zone LED strip light.
ILS Ecosystem Integration
ILS compatibility allows the COLORstrip PiX ILS to participate in coordinated lighting shows with other compatible ILS fixtures. This makes it easier to build synchronized effects across different fixture types without treating every fixture as an isolated lighting device. The fixture can be incorporated into larger event lighting systems where coordinated color and effect control is important. Its ILS compatibility expands the creative possibilities beyond the strip itself. This makes the COLORstrip PiX ILS a useful component for coordinated professional lighting productions.
D-Fi and RF Control Options
D-Fi USB compatibility provides wireless Master/Slave or DMX control when paired with the separately available D-Fi USB accessory. This wireless capability can reduce cable requirements while providing flexible control options for mobile and event installations. The fixture also supports wireless non-DMX operation through the optional IRC-6 remote. These wireless control options provide convenient alternatives to traditional wired DMX operation. Buyers can choose the control method that best matches their production, installation, or mobile lighting requirements.
Runway Chases and Visual Effects
Multiple COLORstrip PiX ILS fixtures can be linked together to create dynamic runway chase effects and coordinated visual sequences. Individual LED control allows these linked fixtures to produce detailed movement, color transitions, and animated patterns across larger installations. The fixture's 14° beam angle and 24° field angle provide focused output suitable for creating visually defined effects. With an illuminance of 4,967 lux at 2 meters, it delivers strong output for its compact linear format. These capabilities make it especially useful for stages, events, clubs, and entertainment environments.
Flicker-Free Video and Portability
The COLORstrip PiX ILS is designed for quiet operation with no moving parts, making it suitable for applications where fixture noise needs to be minimized. Its flicker-free performance makes it a practical choice for video production, broadcast, photography, and camera-facing event applications. The fixture weighs 6.2 lbs and measures 38.9 inches long for relatively easy handling and deployment. An optional CHS-60 VIP Gear Bag provides a convenient transportation and storage solution. Together, the quiet operation, video-friendly performance, and optional bag make the fixture well suited to professional mobile productions.
