Engineered with a 1000W RGBW LED system, each color channel is driven by 250W of dedicated LED power, delivering exceptionally smooth, even color mixing with no hotspots or shadows. Unlike conventional color-mixing fixtures that sacrifice brightness as colors are blended, the RETRO 1000C maintains output equivalent to a traditional 575W incandescent fixture across virtually any color mix, providing vibrant, saturated colors and consistent intensity for demanding stage, studio, and architectural applications.

Installation takes just minutes, providing a fast, cost-effective upgrade that extends the life of your existing profile fixtures while preserving your investment in optics, lenses, and accessories. By retrofitting instead of replacing, venues can significantly reduce capital costs, lower energy consumption, minimize heat output, and decrease ongoing maintenance requirements.

The dedicated Warm White LED enables high-CRI operation for faithful, natural color reproduction when accurate white light is required.  Adding color LEDs enables continuous color temperature adjustment from 3200K to 5600K, delivering everything from warm tungsten tones to crisp daylight whites, for maximum creative flexibility.

Comprehensive control options include RDM, DMX, and standalone manual operation for seamless integration into virtually any lighting system. Selectable dimming curves and adjustable PWM frequency provide smooth, theatrical fades and flicker-free performance for broadcast, film, and video production.

Compatible with virtually any Source4™-type fixture, the RETRO 1000C combines brilliant RGBW color mixing, tunable white flexibility, exceptional efficiency, and professional lighting performance in a single retrofit solution—bringing modern LED technology to your existing fixture inventory without compromise.
