Stage Lighting Hire
Effective stage lighting can turn an ordinary looking stage into an atmospheric and exciting environment that can emphasise and dramatise a performance. Stage lighting can be hired in simple music reactive formats with a digital controller unit up to numerous lamps controlled by DMX lighting consoles and dimmer pack.
Hire stage lighting is based around PAR56 or PAR64 lamps or the increasingly available LED lamps. Hire PAR56 and PAR64 lamps are a traditional style bulb that require a dimmer pack to operate. LED lamps do not need dimmer packs and can be connected directly to a hire lighting desk but they do not necessarily give natural dimming effect as traditional hire lamps.

DMX Lighting and control desks
DMX Overview
DMX512 (digital multiplex) is the standard digital lighting control system which is used to control DMX enabled lighting effects units. This can include moving heads, stage lighting, lasers, disco lighting and smoke or haze effects. DMX has the advantage of being able to control up to 512 channels using only XLR style cable. This is particularly useful when using multiple lighting effects as they can be daisy chained together significantly reducing the amount and complexity of cabling required.
DMX Lighting
DMX512 enabled lighting effects have the ability to be assigned an address, generally set by a DIP switch. The lighting fixture will then "listen" for commands sent to its address from the lighting control desk via an XLR style cable. Many DMX enabled lights have multiple addresses to control each of the lights functions. For example, a colour changing light may have one address to set the mode of the lamp(on/off/ sound activated), another address to select the colour and a third address to set the speed at which it changes the colour.
A DMX512 light will have a DMX description table that describes what every command does. For example, a value of 0 might turn off the light, 10 might make it red, and 255 might make it blue. Multiple lights can be set to the same address so that when a command is sent, all of the lights with that address will respond. In this way, many lights can be controlled in synchronization using only one DMX512 address
