Barcelona’s 4,000-capacity venue Razzmatazz has a house lighting rig but for some bands and DJs additional lighting equipment is hired in. “Usually we receive guidelines from an artist’s management team regarding the aesthetic look that the band wants to achieve for their show,” explains Magdalena Kozlowska, lighting manager at Razzmatazz. ”We have always liked warm-white incandescent matrix blinders and have hired them repeatedly for many concerts.” Therefore Elation Professional Cuepix Panel LED matrices have been installed at the venue.

 

If needed, the five separate spaces of Razzmatazz - Razz Club, the Loft, Pop Bar, Lolita and the Rex Room - can function as one with the advantage of creating different ambiences at the same event. The Cuepix Panels are LED matrix blinders with 25 RGBW LEDs per panel and are often split between the Loft, where they are used as an LED wall behind the DJ booth, and the venue’s main concert space, Razz Club, although the fixtures may be used in any of the venue’s five spaces.

 

“When we have live concerts we often position them standing on the stage floor, or hung individually from truss sections,” Kozlowska states. “When we use them with video content and Art-Net, mostly for our nightclub events with international DJs, we usually assemble them in 10 x 1, 5 x 2 or 3 x 3 configurations, and other times over tripods.”

 

For club nights the Cuepix Panels are usually used with video content. “When it comes to concerts though, I personally like them better with each unit as an independent light source,” Kozlowska comments. “I also like them as backlight behind the artists on stage, pointing at the band and the audience.”

 

The panels often run pixel-mapped effects with content coming from a media server. Razzmatazz’s resident VJ Eloi Costilludo mostly runs monochromatic shapes and patterns across the panels, following the rhythm of the DJ’s music.
