Altman

Altman Stage Lighting is a manufacturer of Stage, Studio, Architectural and Video lighting products. Located in Yonkers NY, Altman is probably the second most well known name in stage lighting, following ETC. Before ETC's SourceFour was introduced in 1992, Altman's 360, and from 1971, 360Q series of ERSs dominated venues from Community Theatres to Broadway stages for about 3 decades. Hundreds of thousands (if not millions) are currently hanging in the US with more still coming off the assembly line every day.

A few other popular theatrical lighting instruments by Altman include:

Shakespeare Series (Altman's Source Four equivalent, comes in several fixed degrees as well as zoom)
65/Q 6" Fresnel
The industry standard Altman Par 64 (and the not-as-popular 46 and 56)
Altman Comet (Short-to-medium throw Followspot)
1,000Q (Short-to-medium throw Followspot)
Altman SkyCyc
Altman ZipStrip
1KAF MBP/MPF Die-Cast 6" Fresnel
The infamous 1KL
