Martin VC-Strip 60 Creative 4x1 LED Video Strip
Description
Martin VC-Strip 60 Creative 4x1 LED Video Strip
The VC-Strip 60 Creative is a compact, lightweight LED strip engineered for studio lighting rigs, backdrop installations, and production design elements. Its narrow 19 mm profile and minimal weight make it practical for mounting in tight spaces around drum kits, instrument setups, and camera work, while the 240 mm length accommodates both standalone accents and daisy-chained arrays. This strip delivers professional-grade brightness and color accuracy for recording and streaming sessions without the bulk of traditional video fixtures.
Brightness & Color Performance for Recording
With 750 nits total output and 135 lumen per meter, the VC-Strip 60 produces punchy, visible light even in well-lit studio environments and on camera. 16-bit per color (48-bit per pixel) image processing ensures smooth color transitions and precise color temperature control spanning 2000K to 11000K, enabling everything from warm tungsten ambience to cool daylight simulation without visible banding or quality loss—critical for consistent multi-take sessions and mixing performance lighting with natural room tone.
Control & Integration in Studio Workflows
The strip operates via Martin P3 or DMX protocols and uses a single 4-pin Molex connector for both power and data input and thru, simplifying cabling on complex studio setups and live recording chains. Up to 63 modules can be daisy-chained from a single control line, and the 12 DMX channels (pixel mode) deliver individual pixel-level control across the 4×1 array for dynamic lighting cues and color-locked backing elements. The P3 System Controller family enables smooth playback and video mapping capabilities that outperform standard DMX systems, integrating seamlessly with production timelines and recording software.

Frequently Asked Questions
What control protocols does the VC-Strip 60 support?
The strip operates via Martin P3 or DMX protocols, with 12 DMX channels available in pixel mode for individual control across the 4×1 LED array. Up to 63 modules can be daisy-chained from a single control line using the 4-pin Molex connector for both power and data.
How bright is this strip, and will it show banding in color transitions?
The VC-Strip 60 produces 750 nits total output (calibrated mode) and 135 lumen per meter, making it visible in well-lit environments. Its 16-bit per-color (48-bit per pixel) processing ensures smooth color transitions and precise color temperature control from 2000K to 11000K without visible banding.
Is this strip suitable for tight spaces or custom installations?
Yes. The VC-Strip 60 has a narrow 19 mm profile and weighs only 32 g, making it practical for mounting in confined spaces. Its 240 mm length and compact dimensions (240 × 19 × 15 mm) accommodate both standalone accents and daisy-chained arrays in integrated stage sets or interior builds.
What is the power input, and how long will the LEDs last?
The strip requires 48 VDC at ±4% tolerance delivered via the 4-pin Molex connector. The LEDs have a minimum lifetime of 50,000 hours to >70% luminous output, making them suitable for long-term installations and tour deployments.
How does pixel-level calibration work across multiple strips?
Pixel-level brightness and color calibration is built into each unit, ensuring perfect matching when multiple VC-Strip 60 modules are daisy-chained together, eliminating visible color or brightness inconsistencies in large arrays.
