Martin VC-Strip 15 Creative 32x1 LED Video Strip
Description
Martin VC-Strip 15 Creative 32x1 LED Video Strip
The VC-Strip 15 Creative is a compact, high-brightness LED video strip engineered for seamless integration into stage designs, set elements, and architectural installations. Its narrow 19 mm width and lightweight 54 g construction allow flexible placement without visual bulk, while the 15 mm pixel pitch delivers sharp image definition across a broad range of viewing distances. This strip excels in professional environments where pixel-level color and brightness consistency matter—each unit arrives factory-calibrated to ensure uniform output that matches across multiple daisy-chained modules.
Brightness & Image Quality
Peak output reaches 5000 nits with 225 lumen per meter, providing excellent visibility in high-ambient-light scenarios typical of live performance and installation work. The 16-bit per color processing (48 bits per pixel) combined with pixel-level brightness and color calibration guarantees smooth gradations, true color reproduction, and uniform matching between adjacent strips—critical for seamless video surfaces.
Control & Integration
Dual control pathways—Martin P3 VideoMapping or DMX—allow you to toggle between systems in real-time using the P3 Switch channel, adapting to existing infrastructure without hardware changes. Single 4-pin Molex connectors for both input and thru-put simplify cabling and permit daisy-chaining up to 32 modules per run, reducing installation complexity on builds of any scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
What control systems does the VC-Strip 15 Creative support?
The strip supports dual control pathways: Martin P3 VideoMapping or DMX, and you can switch between them in real-time using the P3 Switch channel without any hardware changes. Power compatibility includes Martin P3 PowerPort 1500, DMX PowerPort 375, or standard 48 VDC supplies.
How many strips can I daisy-chain together?
You can daisy-chain up to 32 modules per run using the single 4-pin Molex connectors for both input and thru-put, which simplifies cabling and installation across large video surfaces.
What brightness and color depth does it deliver?
Peak output reaches 5000 nits with 225 lumens per meter for excellent visibility in high-ambient-light scenarios. 16-bit per-color processing (48 bits per pixel) ensures smooth gradations and true color reproduction with pixel-level brightness and color calibration for uniform matching across adjacent strips.
Can the strip be cut or customized to fit a specific installation?
Yes, the VC-Strip 15 Creative is field-cuttable for custom integration. The unit measures 480 mm (18.9 in.) in length and has a narrow 19 mm width and lightweight 54 g construction for flexible placement in stage designs and architectural applications.
What viewing distance is the 15 mm pixel pitch suited for?
The 15 mm pixel pitch is designed to deliver sharp image definition across a broad range of viewing distances, making it adaptable to both close-proximity detail and mid-to-distant stage views depending on your installation layout.
