Martin MAC Aura XIP in dual SiP

The Martin MAC Aura XIP is a compact yet powerful moving head fixture that delivers professional-grade wash and beam capabilities in a surprisingly compact footprint. Its intelligent dual-engine design—combining potent beam LEDs with sophisticated Aura color mixing—makes it equally effective in recording studio lighting setups, permanent installations, and mid-sized production environments where space and power efficiency matter.

Optical Performance & Control

The fixture's 7 x 60W RGBW LED array produces up to 296.5 W of maximum beam power while maintaining precise color control through the 35.1 W Aura LED engine. A 6.3 to 50.4 degree zoom range provides flexibility from tight accent lighting to broad key and fill washes, while 540° pan and 220° tilt with 16-bit control enable smooth, accurate positioning for capturing talent, sets, and product shots with consistent lighting placement across multiple takes.

Build & Connectivity

Engineered for both studio and location work with an IP54 rating and smart weatherproof construction, this fixture integrates seamlessly into modern lighting networks via DMX, Ethernet, and USB Type-C firmware updates using Martin Companion or P3 System Controller. The compact body measures just 338 mm wide and 380 mm tall, fitting easily into studio rigs and mobile lighting kits, yet includes 2 pairs of 1/4-turn omega bracket points for reliable rigging and repeatable positioning session to session.
