Circuit introduces the latest upgrades that directly improves the experience on the dance floor. We've also made some internal upgrades to the DJ booth hardware.
Welcome to the mini-upgrade, version 2.02
In addition to two green lasers that were previously installed, the lighting system has been upgraded with a new multi-colored laser. The colors of the new laser are Green, Yellow and Red. This laser has a 4.50mW output and is installed in the center of the dance floor above the stage.
We have also installed a new computerized blue Stinger 1 Omni System Laser that's capable of unlimited special effects. This incredible blue laser has an output greater than regular lasers.
The Stinger 1 incorporates 25 new frame based professional aerial effects. Frame based effects are normally only found in larger laser projector systems. The benefit to frame based imagery is more precise control over the pattern at any given moment. We can now manipulate the pattern via X,Y, Z controls as well as freeze frame effects for stationary effects like Laser Sky.
Under DMX control we can alter al 25 of the most favorite aerial laser effects. Using the last three channels X,Y, Z axis rotation, X Axis Gain and Y Axis Offset you can create hundreds of variations. Select able with DMX or with sound activation via the LED Mode menu system "Another First from PULSE" these effects pulse, twist, and turn with the beat of the music.
The extra wide scan angle makes for incredibly wide aerial laser scans. The design of the Stinger was specifically intended for raw aerial performance that is not compromised by constraints of systems designed for on screen images. Stinger 1 Series can easily target bounce mirrors and remote effects as well as strategically place laser effects for the total aerial laser beam and scanning show!

The next upgrade is a specially designed five jet Kryogenifex, Inc. Nitrogen System. Kryogenifex of South Beach Florida, who worked on the upgrade, has installed Nitrogen systems in many major clubs throughout the country. The Nitrogen system is four jets installed in the ceiling above our lighting system, they are located in the four corners of the dance floor and compliment the lighting, not to mention cooling off a hot dance floor. When activated, jets of cold fog fills the dance floor.
In addition, a fifth jet was installed across the front of the stage, it's in the form of a specially designed theatrical curtain. This unique effect will be used during stage performances to enhance the visual experience.
The final upgrade is to the DJ booth monitors. Two custom JBL speaker cabinets were specially designed for Twilo, New York. When Circuit purchased the sound system from Twilo, the two monitor speakers came with the system. Until recently the speakers were in storage. Each cabinet contains four JBL speakers. A tweeter, a mid-range horn, a mid-speaker and a 12" mid-bass speaker. Inside the cabinet contains custom designed crossovers which separates the frequences going to each speaker. All the eight speakers from both cabinets were brought to an authorized JBL repair center to be completely refurbished and brought up to specification. The cabinets were then installed in the DJ booth along with two JBL bass cabinets. Three new QSC power amplifiers were installed to drive the booth system along with a Rane 32 band equalizer, a Rane 3 way crossover and power conditioner. The DJ can now hear every frequency like that of the dance floor, which helps with better mixing techniques. The people on the dance floor are sure to benefit from this upgrade.
