Hire GLP impression X4 Bar 20 for Your Next Production
The versatile LED batten that delivers professional results at an accessible hire rate
If there's one fixture that consistently appears on riders across production types, it's the GLP impression X4 Bar 20. Its combination of output quality, zoom range, and pixel mapping capabilities has made it a staple of modern lighting design. Here's why you should consider it for your next production, and why hiring from CEG makes sense.
Versatility That Justifies the Specification
The X4 Bar 20's appeal lies in its ability to serve multiple functions within a single production. During one show, the same fixtures might provide smooth colour washes during quiet moments, punchy graphic effects during high-energy sequences, and atmospheric backlighting throughout. This versatility reduces the overall fixture count you need to hire, which translates directly to cost savings.
The Zoom Makes the Difference
Many LED battens offer fixed beam angles, limiting their usefulness to specific applications. The X4 Bar 20's 7-50 degree zoom range fundamentally changes what's possible. Need tight, dramatic beams for a specific song? Narrow down to 7 degrees. Want broad coverage for an audience wash? Open up to 50 degrees. This adaptability is controlled via DMX, so you can incorporate zoom changes into your programming.
Pixel Mapping Done Right
Not all pixel mapping implementations are equal. The X4 Bar 20's 20 individually controllable cells provide enough resolution for detailed effects without becoming overwhelming to program. The cells are evenly spaced for consistent visual patterns, and GLP's LED selection ensures colour consistency across all zones. For productions incorporating media servers or pixel mapping software, the X4 Bar 20 integrates smoothly.
How It Compares
There are cheaper LED battens available, but the X4 Bar 20 occupies a sweet spot between budget fixtures and high-end alternatives. It outperforms entry-level options in output quality, build construction, and feature set. Compared to premium alternatives, it delivers comparable results at a more accessible hire rate. For most productions, the X4 Bar 20 represents the optimal balance of capability and cost.
