Define disco lights? I've got a birthday party coming up and they've asked for some disco lights. Will moonflowers do? What about scanners? Any recommendations for something on a budget/2nd hand? |

Anything that a 'professional lampie' would turn their nose up at is officially disco lighting in my book

Yeah moonflowers will do
Moonflowers like:
Abstract twister 4s
NJD datamoons
Martin t-rex
Martin raptors etc..
Scanners and barrel effects like:
Acme dynamo's
Acme Dynarocks
Martin acrobats
or LED disco lights like
Acme ImpossibLED, the best moonflower led disco light, huge coverage,
Hope this helps

We have 4 Martin mx4 scanners with a little mc showtime controller forage for £500 if your interested Sam.
The little controller is designed for these and a few other Martin fixtures to be strung together and gives you pure disco treats |

Ian,
Liking the suggestion of pinspots (oh how I try to hunt them down on fleabay!) but how about a few Pulsar trispots driven by the 3000 (or a Modulator?), or, a few of those luverly plexiglas fronted screens?, pure 80's disco

our venue has around 30 working ones sat in a cupboard with IEC connectors if you really are desperate. Used them once last year to make a 'disco fever' rig for a clubnight one a few dimmer channels ![]() |
