MAC Viper Profile

The Martin MAC Viper Profile is a full-feature, 1000 watt short-arc discharge spot luminaire. The Martin MAC Viper Profile is a popular fixture among high end production lighting designers around the world. It outperforms all market-leading profiles in the 1200-watt range and is even an alternative to 1500-watt fixtures. The Viper Profile is not only brighter, it is also a faster and more compact solution. With its 1000-watt HID source, the Viper consumes less power, making it over 50% more efficient than its 1200-watt rivals.

Martin MAC Viper Profile Features:

  • 26000 Lumens – Excellent light quality with a very flat and uniform field and 6000K color temperature
  • 1:4 zoom – Fast zoom with auto-linked focus
  • Large aperture front lens – The 140 mm front lens exceeds the size of any other fixture in this segment for just the right fat beam look
  • 2 x 5-slot rotating gobo wheels – All glass gobos with optimal focal separation for superior morphing effects
  • FX wheel – Patent-pending FX wheel provides an additional 4 fixed gobos and 135° animation effect
  • CMY – Vibrant color mixing with a superior palette of colors including true reds, rich ambers, primary green and deep blues
  • 8-slot color wheel – Static colors and correction filters for added color choice and bump effects
  • Linear CTO – Daylight to tungsten CCT control and expansion of the CMY palette
  • Dimmer and shutter – Combined dimmer/shutter system with intensity effects, instant blackout/open and smooth fades
  • Iris – Fast and tight iris with adjustable dynamic effects
  • Strobe – Diverse strobe effects using mechanical or electronic control or in combination
  • Soft frost – A light frost leaves gobo artwork visible with a beautiful soft edge. Includes a linear focus blurring option
  • 4-facet prism – Real beam separation with rotation and index control for dynamic effects and accurate tiling
