Description
Martin MAC Viper XIP in SiP
The Martin MAC Viper XIP is a compact yet powerful moving head engineered for production work, live events, and permanent installations where consistent output and precise control define the session. Its lightweight frame and balanced weight distribution simplify rigging while maintaining the optical performance demanded by lighting designers and technical crews working under deadline.
Optical Performance & Light Engine
A 760W LED light engine produces 28,000 lumens at a neutral 5800K white point, delivering consistent color rendering across long throws and in bright ambient conditions. The 5.7 to 51-degree zoom range with 14 precision-coated lenses provides both tight spotting and wide wash capabilities from a single fixture, streamlining your rig size and cue complexity.
Connectivity & Control Integration
Full integration with modern control ecosystems is built in: DMX, Art-Net, sACN, and Martin P3 Control with fail-safe bypass ensure seamless operation in networked environments. Wireless DMX capability via plug-in module adds flexibility for temporary setups and touring workflows without hardline constraints, letting you focus on the creative work.
