Dazzled by Martin Lights: Durban's Pros Join Peter Dahlin for a Showcase
Durban's Live Entertainment Rental Industry Clients were utterly impressed by Peter Dahlin and our dynamic Live Events Sales Manager, Renier Smit’s Showcase of Martin Professional's cutting-edge lighting solutions.
Among the notable attendees were some of South Africa's leading Live Events and staging experts, including:
- Richard Gild, Managing Member, Hirezone Audio Visual
- Keagan Browning, Director of AV Company
- Cebo Gama, Managing Member, Vinyl Entertainment
- Vimal Rawjee, Owner of Insane Sound & Lighting
- Dylan Heaton from The Playhouse Company
Our Durban Office was transformed into a hub of innovation as attendees immersed themselves in the mesmerizing effects of Martin Professional’s latest in lighting innovation. Renier shared his insights on the event:
"Peter and I had a blast reconnecting with our clients in Durban. The lighting fixture that stole the show was Martin's MAC AURA XIP Wash Light, known for its IP54 rating, making it an ideal fit for Durban's ever-changing weather. It can handle rain, wind, dust, and just about any condition you can throw its way!"
With a grin, Renier added, "The MAC AURA PXL also grabbed attention, and what amazed everyone was the versatility of Martin’s P3 Visual Control. P3 is like magic; it brings all your creative LED and lighting fixtures onto one visual canvas, simplifying your life!"
Renier and Peter used this opportunity to introduce Martin's flagship MAC Ultra Performance lighting fixture to Durban's Live Entertainment industry. Launched last year, it's already gaining traction with AV Unlimited being the first on the African continent to invest in these lights, followed shortly thereafter by Stage Effects Group.
The MAC Ultra Performance fixture is perfect for concerts, touring productions, and noise-sensitive broadcast and theatre stage lighting applications. In short, it pushes the boundaries of output and performance execution, standing in a class of its own.
