I am looking to replace side light units in my theatre. Currently we are using S4 fixtures with Apollo color scrollers.
I am looking at either Ovation or ETC Coloursource profiles.
I have one each coming into the space tomorrow to do a side by side comparison.
I want to see if the hive mind can see anything I am missing in my comparison process.
Thanks in advance

- Look at the dimming curve between an incandescent , and each LED unit.
- Do the same with the Ovation set to 16 bit
- Bring up all three units and look at the uniformity / spikiness of the beam. How hard will it be to blend.
- Look at the LED units with the ETC and Ovation lens tubes. Swap them out with a non HiDef tube for grins.
- Put a gobo in each fixture. Look for sharpness and fringing.
- Bring the units up to full and compare color and intensity to my Incandescent units with scrollers
- On each unit - take a look at skin color / fabric swatches to see what seems more real.
- Play with the spectrum color control on the ION. See if the extra emitter on the Ovation gives better / easier color control.
Thanks in advance
