Description
The MAC Viper Performance is a full-feature framing fixture that delivers an output and performance never before seen in a fixture this size or one using so little power. Unlike other fixtures in this class, the MAC Viper Performance does not forgo an iris or animation wheel - they are both included along with a framing system and rotating gobos.
The framing system consists of four shutter blades that can all individually adjust +/- 30° while the entire system can rotate +/- 55°. The exacting system can repeat each cue with great precision. When fully focused, gobos can be nicely framed with a soft edge. The MAC Viper Performance has adopted the compact form, impressive speed, superior light quality and beautiful colors that the MAC Viper Profile is renowned for and uses the same 1000-watt lamp.
26000 Lumens - Excellent light quality with a very flat and uniform field and 6000K color temperature
1:4 zoom - Fast zoom with auto-linked focus
Four shutter blades individually adjust +/- 30° while the entire system rotates +/- 55°. Repeats cues with great precision

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level do I need to operate this fixture?
The MAC Viper Performance is designed for intermediate to advanced lighting technicians and professionals who are familiar with moving-light control, DMX protocols, and theatre or live-sound console operation. Basic fixture setup and cueing requires knowledge of lighting console programming.
What's included with the CMY color-mixing system?
The fixture includes full CMY (cyan, magenta, yellow) color-mixing capability, allowing you to mix any color through a lighting console without using color filters or gobos. The system works alongside the animation wheel and framing shutters for layered color and pattern control.
How does the framing system work, and can I adjust each blade independently?
Four motorized shutter blades each adjust independently +/- 30 degrees, and the entire framing system rotates +/- 55 degrees, allowing precise gobo edge control and complex light shaping. Once set, cues repeat with great precision, making it ideal for scripted theatre or touring shows.
How does this compare to other compact framing fixtures?
The MAC Viper Performance delivers 26,000 lumens from a 1000-watt lamp with a 1:4 zoom, iris, animation wheel, and rotating gobos all in one compact body. Unlike some competitors in this class, it does not sacrifice framing capability or animation features, making it a full-featured option for mid-sized and large venues.
Is this suitable for theatre, live touring, or both?
Yes, the MAC Viper Performance is built for both theatre and touring live-performance environments. Its compact form factor, fast zoom, and motorized precision framing make it reliable for both fixed installations and road rigs, with the repeatability needed for scripted shows or consistent night-to-night performances.
