What does B-Stock mean for the MAC One?

B-Stock units are fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections on the flame-retardant thermoplastic housing or packaging—optical performance and all features are identical to new units.

Is this fixture suitable for live broadcast and theater?

Yes; the MAC One is engineered specifically for theater, broadcast, and touring. Its 23 dB(A) ultra-quiet operation is critical for audio-sensitive environments, and the 375,000 cd narrow beam intensity cuts through ambient light on large stages.

How portable is the MAC One?

At 4.4 kg (9.7 lbs) with a compact 254 × 297 × 220 mm form factor, it is genuinely portable for touring and transit between venues while maintaining full optical performance and durability.

What control protocols does it support?

The MAC One is compatible with DMX, Art-Net, sACN, and Martin P3 control, allowing integration into most modern lighting rigs and networked systems.

What zoom and beam range does the Fresnel lens provide?

The integrated Fresnel lens delivers a 4–27° zoom range, enabling flexible beam shaping from tight, high-intensity spots to wider wash coverage as needed for stage positioning and design.

Martin MAC One in Cardboard

The Martin MAC One is a compact, lightweight moving head fixture engineered for studio installations and small-to-medium venue recording applications where reliable output and silent operation are critical. Its ultra-compact form factor makes it easy to position in tight spaces, while the integrated Fresnel lens delivers precise beam control for consistent key and fill lighting during video production and live-to-tape sessions. Built for producers and engineers who demand consistent performance in controlled recording environments.

Optical Performance & Output

This fixture delivers 2,500 lumens with an impressive narrow beam intensity of 375,000 cd, making it capable of cutting through ambient light and establishing clean key light separation. The integrated Fresnel lens with 4–27° zoom range provides flexible beam shaping from tight spots to wider washes, adapting quickly between setup configurations, while the 120 W custom-developed RGBL LED engine ensures color accuracy across the full spectrum with 21.4 lm/W efficacy for consistent results across multiple takes.

Design & Thermal Characteristics

The high-impact flame-retardant thermoplastic housing with IP20 protection rating survives the demands of active studio environments and location recording. Thermal management is exceptional—achieving only 23 dB(A) in theater and broadcast mode ensures this fixture runs virtually silent, critical for production workflows where fan noise would contaminate audio or disrupt recording sessions.
