CHAUVET Lights up Krystal's

Queens, NY- You don’t just feel the beat, you see it at Krystal’s Night Club, thanks to the installation of 32 (CHAUVET) COLORtube EQs mounted vertically in frosted glass columns surrounding the main floor.  The tubes graphically display the audio spectrum of the sound system for all to see, truly bouncing to the beat. The effect puts the crowd into the center of the action, adding to the energetic feel of the location, while remaining “a real workhorse…that stands out from all the rest,” says lighting designer Bernard Tu of Lighting & Sound Consultants, LLC. 

Ambiance and mood lighting are accomplished primarily by 55 (CHAUVET) LED-fitted COLORsplash Jr. wash lights mounted behind the frosted glass front of the main bar. Each light is controlled separately via DMX interface, allowing for true color scrolling and chase effects.  The extensive use of LED lighting has three advantages: power consumption is limited, little heat is generated, and the bar will never have to be dismantled to replace a burned out bulb or fried gel sheet. 

Two 20” mirror balls, PAR cans, DMX strobes, and a powerful fogger add visual interest and excitement within the 9,000-square foot location.  But it is the edgy LED-fitted fixtures that most definitely win patrons over, says Tu: “Both the EQ tubes and Color Splash Jr.'s are the main attraction of the venue, next to the beautiful women!”
