Good day CB,
I am struggling with maintaining even color temp across my 3 Robert Juliat Aramis spots. I work in a tour venue. We do everything from weddings, corporate events to full symphonies, and rock shows. The shows spotlight needs tend to vary obviously. My issues comes into play whenever a tour requires 3 spots. My typical usage is 1 - 2 but occasional a show will come through that needs 3 (actually 4 but we don't have room). This creates a massive disparity of lamp hours between my 3 spots. 2 of them run pretty evenly and are at around 620 lamp hours on the fixture. While the 3rd, is at 260. Note: I'm fairly new in the position (~2 yrs). As such, I am not sure when the fixtures were re-lamped.
Now for the question, what to do? Should I re-lamp all 3 fixtures when the color temp gets noticeable or add a filter to correct? IF I proceed with the latter, how does that play with the filters selected by the tour? Does anyone run a venue and have experience with this issue?
I've checked this forum in several different ways as well as the interwebs. Any advice is welcome.
Thanks,
JM
