MagicDot Neo
inspiring sphere
Very compact, lightweight, ultra-fast and powerful, MagicDot Neo represents the ultimate evolution of this innovative family of fixtures.
Designed for stage lighting and engineered for mixed indoor and outdoor use—even in saline environments—it features a brand-new 120 W multi-chip RGB-L LED source paired with a high-efficiency 100 mm optic, delivering a total output of 3,000 lm for just 160 W of power consumption. The high output of this LED source required a bespoke cooling solution based on a phase-change heat pipe. MagicDot Neo switches from Beam to Wash in an instant, offers a 10:1 zoom ratio and covers a wide beam angle from 3 ° to 30 °. Continuous dual rotation on the pan and tilt axes allows fixtures to be clustered so that each light source can be individually controlled in every direction, and the minimal spacing between units makes previously impossible configurations achievable.
The intense beam, combined with the High-Definition Liquid effect—featuring 60 RGB LEDs around the beam’s periphery—creates mesmerising multi-colour effects.
MagicDot Neo generates organic light and astonishingly complex volumetric effects, enabling truly breathtaking stage presentations. Extensive Ethernet connectivity supports unlimited system configurations. By drastically reducing the thickness of aluminium components, optimising the cooling system, simplifying lens mounts and integrating low-density optical parts, the overall weight has been significantly reduced to just 6.6 kg. The fixture’s performance stems from its singular design, extreme miniaturisation and minimalist cylindrical form. Enter a new creative sphere that is as inspiring as it is radical. An elegant, meticulously crafted projector with a unique visual signature, MagicDot Neo is the obvious choice—a technological powerhouse in a compact package, capable of delivering spectacular stage effects.
