The ELP MANET 8f from Martin Professional redefines static fixture lighting with precision beam control. Inspired by the Latin stage direction "it remains", it pays tribute to Shakespearean theatre and timeless storytelling. Combining classic tungsten-style output with modern LED efficiency, it features a six-colour LED light engine for a rich, refined palette and a TM-30 Rf of 95 and a CRI score of 98. A carefully designed 8-inch (200 mm) Fresnel lens, 9 to 50 degree zoom, and anti-reflective barn doors, deliver smooth, artefact-free fades. With ultra-quiet operation, intuitive controls, and wireless configuration via Martin's Companion App, ELP MANET 8f offers unmatched performance, flexibility, and artistry-ensuring every moment remains unforgettable.
The innovative six-colour light engine featuring red, green, blue, amber, lime, and cyan LEDs, delivers a best-in-class TM-30 Rf of 95 and a CRI score of 98 for consistent, vibrant colour from saturated primaries to delicate pastels across the full colour-temperature spectrum.
A carefully designed 8-inch (200 mm) Fresnel lens produces a uniform wash with a classic soft edge while 13,000 lumens and a 9°-50° zoom range allow this fixture to excel in narrow throws and wide washes.
Precise adjustment from 1,850 K to 12,500 K in 50 K increments ensures seamless transitions between warm and cool whites as well as fully tracking the black body line via the onboard calibration system
Smooth and precise manual zoom control via the onboard dual controls coupled with the optional pole operated yoke set allows for quick and easy focusing from stage to studio, intuitive menu and control options, including NFC compatibility with the Martin Companion Mobile app that simplifies setup and operation.
