I use an old projector screen hooked under the home made front panel, which has 4 channel

STL unit built in (down lights on the reflective screen). Looks effective plus 2 UV bulbs for

quiet times for a nice glow!

Also 2 light screens either side powered of the same STL unit(Bulgin) dating from 1989!

I've restored/rewired/re-sectioned them but in the process of replacing the perspex

fronts with clear sheets and refractive film (WIGRTI)

thats intresting but i think that light boxs are a thing of the past now.

 

i tend to use a black sheet for most venuse and a starcloth for larger and beter paid venuse.

 

the projector screen sounds fun but a litel hard work to maintain and set up ect. i do like it tho.

In your mind, maybe.

I've had recent bookings on account of my still using them - make of that what you will.

 

This 'two projector stands and a starcloth' setup is being seen as the cheap and easy option, according to one client I spoke to last week; He in particular wanted a disco with light boxes at the front, as he felt (correctly in my view) it would look better in the venue he'd chosen.

 

Apparently he had some trouble finding such a disco.

Rubbish. Good quality lightboxes still have their place. I have DJ'd for 26 years now and have used both options. Clients still want light boxes at the appropriate function. That does not mean I use them at every function, but the option is there. I like them. In fact I have had 3 bookings this year, when the client has asked for light boxes.

Come on Robin - are you sure?

 

Was it not more that they asked for some lights and would you be carrying them in in boxes?

On my Website front page you can see 2 of my light boxes, maybe old but fit for the purpose.

 

I think the ones Nick (NRG) uses are great too.

Nah, can't do that. If we had light boxes and were good DJs, that might be a different matter.
