Product Overview
The ETC ColorSource PAR offers a quality of build and light not seen in such an affordable wash fixture. Using ETC’s unique RGB-L ('L' for lime) color system, the ColorSource PAR provides a rich, bright light unlike any other LED washlight in its class. This version, the CSPAR-1-A comes in white with a Twistlock connector.
Most budget LEDs use red, green, blue, and possibly white and/or amber emitters, a combination that results in a limited color range. In contrast, the ColorSource PAR benefits from ETC's extensive experience in LED color-mixing, by using the proportionate recipe of red, green, blue, a twist of lime and an extra dash of red. The lime and double-red emitters expand the ColorSource PAR's color range, allowing users to get a richness only possible from ETC LED luminaires. The unique blend also adds depth, making a more natural, flattering light. And, when ColorSource PAR fixtures are used at any intensity, they maintain their color quality.
Despite the ColorSource PAR's superior color capabilities, it's unbelievably simple to use - with or without a lighting desk. Even the simplest console can control the luminaire, which has a special RGB mode allowing it to work easily with third-party consoles. And the ColorSource PAR has its own user interface, which means it can be controlled without a console. Users can simply plug it in and begin working within seconds.
