How do you feel about this unit vs the ADJ Starbar Wash RGBW Par LED you reviewed in another video? Looking for starter lights for my band to bring to small/medium shows. I'm also looking at the Chauvet DJ bars.
They're both really good. I like the ADJ/Elim models a little better than the Chauvet ones. The Starbar appears to be headed towards being discontinued, and I have to say, I am surprised at how well the Eliminator Mini Par bar works. I had put them side-by-side at one point, and the Mini Par bar was brighter by a little.
I'm researching, trying to determine the settings for this system; particularly, the audio response and how slow can you control the changing? Solo, singer, and songwriter looking to create ambiance and compliment the song changes with subtle changes synchronized to slow changes. Direction to a different in-depth video would be helpful also. I've seen what I'm trying to accomplish in a club setting and it was very minimal with four par can bars; almost unnoticeable, yet highly, and memorably impactful. Thanks!
It's going to somewhat depend on the controller more than anything else. Once you set the DMX address according to where your controller patches it, then the rest of the control is all on the controller side.
I have a very similar fixture under the UK brand of Prolight. Very good value fixtures. The kit as a whole is a little different in that the lights are COBs rather than discrete LEDs and the bags mine came in suuuuuuck... The zippers broke in next to no time; only other gripe in my case is the stands; very light-duty and far too short. I'm not particularly tall (around 5' 10") and they're barely shoulder height.
Excellent review. Great video. I just picked up a set. So far, they look fantastic.

You probably want to look at a controller like the MaestroDMX, built-in sound active modes are not going to do what you desire
are there any instructions on how to setup/control these with a controller the Manual is vague on this

Would you place these in front of the band or behind? Or maybe on each side with some pointing forward?
Is there a non blinking mode?
Yes
Are each of the pods individually addressable?
Yes, you can control them individually
Check out the new Mega Hex L Par, a super affordable par with lime LEDs!
