Martin Professional smartMACs at The Hilton
Greece - This past October, the renovated Galaxy Bar on the roof of the Hilton Hotel in Athens unveiled its new look. Its refreshed and innovative appearance is based on 35 Martin Professional smartMAC gobo and colour-changing moving heads which, recessed in the ceiling, project onto an equivalent number of hanging 'drums', giving an impressive luminous effect of pattern, colour and movement.

The smartMACs are controlled via a PC-based Martin LightJockey system with the DMX line protected by nine opto-splitters. A Martin Fingers controller is also used to allow hands on access to LightJockey functions.

The lighting scenarios at Galaxy Bar run automatically during the day and night. Using Fingers, the lighting looks can be manually bypassed by the lighting operator if he wishes to choose another scenario out of a list of more than sixty combinations.

The DMX network design and LightJockey programming were completed by Michael Kontogiannis of Panou SA, Martin Professional's distributor in Greece. Panou also served as the supplier of all the Martin products installed at Galaxy Bar.
