Mode Electronics Star-Lite ST-1 Strobe Units

 


Back in the classic club days there were many smaller strobes that were used as clusters for effect.  There was the common "egg" screw in strobe and the hanging strobes from companies such as Diversitronics, High End (Lightwave Research) and these from Mode.  I think these were the best from the units offered.  The Mode units were available in 5 colors: amber, green, red, pink and blue just like the Mode Arc-Line strobe runner tubes.  These are basically just a small piece of Arc-Line tube cut off and a single self-contained strobe unit.  These units hang from the ceiling or bar and flash at random.  Simple effect, but looks awesome in multiples!  Units made in England.

METEOR Infinity Touch Control System


One of the best relay touch systems ever built!  This is the Infinity control system made by METEOR.  It has 2 pieces for operation.  The rack mount control panel and the dedicated relay pack.  Connection between the 2 units is a simple telephone cable! So simple!  The controller is a 16 channel unit with touch sensitive buttons for "Live" operation and standard push button switches for programming and replay.  You have the option to use it as a standard touch panel system (with bump and latch buttons) or use it as a programmable chase controller (Comes with 16 pre-programed chases and 4 different speeds) or both!  It has on-board memory for programs and recall up to 32 scenes and adjustments for all parameters of the unit.  One controller can operate multiple relay packs since the packs have in and out connector.  Control protocol is MMX (Meteors proprietary language).  Unit made in the US!
