Ayrton has revealed Mamba, a versatile lighting concept. Equipped with a laser source twice as powerful as Cobra, Mamba delivers a multitude of new psychedelic effects.
As the first laser-sourced IP65 fixture in Ayrton’s 6 Series, Mamba boasts unmatched graphic capabilities, featuring 18 motors dedicated solely to effects creation. It offers a vast selection of 92 fixed and rotating metal gobos across two wheels, specifically designed to sculpt light in “beam” mode. An endlessly rotating ovoid animation wheel adds to its dynamic arsenal.
The gobos can be paired with an initial level of two palettes, each containing four individually rotating, indexable prisms that can be combined. These can then be linked to a second level of four combinable prisms situated at the front of the fixture, enabling the creation of a multitude of complex volumetric effects. Completing its graphic toolkit are two Frost filters.
Mamba introduces a highly sophisticated, innovative colour section, including a brand-new high-definition gradient CMY mixing system and an instant-access multi-position wheel equipped with 15 complementary colour filters, two multicolour filters, two CTP correctors, a progressive CTO, and three multicolour animation sections—RGB, CMY, and RGB+CMY—spread over two concentric circles.
Fitted with a 250mm front lens for greater performance, Mamba’s proprietary 13-lens optical system offers a 21 x zoom range and an operating span from 0.7° to 15°, pushing the boundaries of beam definition with a native contrast unparalleled by any digital light source.
Mamba features an extreme focusing range that allows adjustment of the beam shape based on the operating distance.
With continuous pan and tilt rotation multiplying the possibilities for creating complex effects, this fixture becomes a universal tool capable of tackling any challenge in any condition.
Developed as a versatile fixture, the IP65-rated Mamba operates flawlessly both outdoors and indoors—even in saline environments—while maintaining full accessibility. It is equipped with a sun protection system and an integrated heating system that withstands temperatures as low as -20 °C (-4 °F), and, incredibly, weighs just 41 kg.
