Coming up in October 10-12th, the WFX Conference & Expo will take place in Dallas, Texas. 3,500+ people focused on worship technology come together to learn, share ideas and check out the latest equipment. ADJ will be demonstrating a variety of innovative lighting solutions designed for use by dynamic churches of all sizes.
LED technology has advanced rapidly in recent years and the ADJ range features a full complement of LED-powered fixtures offering brightness comparable to even discharge lamps. Full lighting systems, for churches of almost any size, can be put together using nothing but LED fixtures. There are many advantages to switching to LED, including lower electrical costs, extremely long lamp life, less maintenance, and minimal heat. Substantial savings can be made over time, lamp replacement becomes a thing of the past, and the stage can be kept cool for the comfort of musicians, worship leaders and preachers.

ADJ COB Cannon Wash series fixtures have a wide beam angle of 80-degrees allowing them to cover an extremely large area. These flexible lighting tools are supplied with replaceable 40-degree and 50-degree lenses for when a more concentrated beam of light is required. The original COB Cannon Wash fixture has a sleek black casing and utilizes a 150-Watt quad color RGBA COB (Chip On Board) LED which allows for a wide palette of evenly distributed colors, while the COB Cannon Wash Pearl is essentially the same fixture, but enclosed in an off-white casing designed for situations when lighting equipment needs to be inconspicuous.
Finally, the COB Cannon Wash DW features a 150-Watt dynamic white COB LED, which allows blending between stark cool white and rich warm white light, for illuminating pastors and worship leaders on stage.For portable churches, the new ADJ Element Par series is designed to transform any wall into a worshipful backdrop. This collection of LED up-lighting fixtures offers in-built rechargeable batteries and WiFLY EXR extended range wireless DMX receivers, allowing for quick setups and completely cable free operation. Offering a choice of quad or hex color LEDs and regular or weatherproof IP54-rated cases, the Element Par Series is designed for attractive ambient lighting, which can be quickly setup anywhere it is required.
Once only a possibility for mega-churches, versatile moving head lighting is now within the budgets of medium-sized and even small congregations. ADJ’s Vizi Hex Wash7 and Vizi QA Wash7 are compact yet powerful wash fixtures that feature motorized zoom allowing almost instant beam angle changes between 5-degrees and 55-degrees. This means that the same fixtures can be used to illuminate different parts of a stage or auditorium, in any color, as well as offering the potential for moving lighting effects. This allows for creativity that is easy for tech teams, as the need to manually reposition and refocus lighting equipment is removed.ADJ’s range also features a variety of moving head spot fixtures, such as the Focus Spot Three Z Pearl, which can be used to add texture to stages and backdrops through GOBO projections as well as to create engaging mid-air beam effects. Powered by a 100-Watt white LED light-source, the Focus Spot Three Z Pearl has a white casing and a collection of features including motorized focus, motorized zoom, two six-facet rotating prisms, and replaceable rotating GOBOs.
ADJ’s Vizi BSW 300 moving head fixture functions interchangeably as a beam, spot or wash. Powered by a 300-Watt white LED it offers twin color wheels, motorized zoom, motorized focus, twin GOBO wheels, replaceable rotating GOBOs, twin six-facet prisms, and a frost filter. Vizi BSW 300’s hybrid functionality is designed to meet the varied and changing needs of modern forward-thinking churches.At WFX ADJ will also be demonstrating the new Vizi CMY300 for the very first time in the USA. This moving head offers hybrid beam, spot and wash functionality, and also full CMY (cyan, magenta and yellow) color mixing. Lighting designers can select the precise color required to match décor, video content or creative vision. Offering stage washing, GOBO projection and mid-air beam effects from one compact fixture, the Vizi CMY300 allows fewer fixtures to be required, saving on initial purchase and lower cabling and installation costs.
LED technology is also being used in video displays. ADJ AV Series brings the benefits of LED video screens within the budgets of many churches where projectors had previously been the only option for displaying song lyrics and live video feeds. LED video screens offer increased brightness and better contrast while also removing the need to position a projector in front of, or behind, each display screen. The AV Series offers three different pixel-pitch options, the 3.91mm AV3, 4.81mm AV4IP or 6mm AV6X, while the AV4IP model also offers an IP-rating allowing for its use outdoors.“As a company with 30 years of experience in the lighting industry,” says ADJ USA’s National Sales Manager, Alfred Gonzales, “ADJ is extremely well-placed to provide affordable and reliable equipment to churches of all sizes and denominations. Our latest range of LED-powered fixtures are ideal for use in churches as they are low power, low maintenance, and produce minimal excess heat. ADJ lighting and video equipment has already been installed in many churches across the USA and around the world and we’re sure that the demonstration of our latest fixtures at WFX this year will lead to many more.”
The ADJ COB Cannon Wash Series, Element Par Series, Vizi Hex Wash7, Vizi QA Wash7, Focus Spot Three Z Pearl, Vizi BSW 300, Vizi CMY300 and AV Series will all be on display at WFX 2017. The expo will take place at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas. Members of the ADJ team will also be on hand to offer advice and answer specific questions.
