Frequently asked questions
Which is better for outdoor use?
The Exterior Projection Pro Compact Black is engineered for outdoor installations with IP66 weatherproofing and corrosion resistance. The MAC One White is not rated for outdoor high-brightness applications and lacks sealed weatherproofing.
Which has more color control and effects?
The MAC One White includes 24 RGB backlight LEDs and 200+ built-in FX macros for dynamic color mixing and video mapping. The Exterior Projection Pro Compact Black uses a fixed 7500K daylight-balanced LED designed for architectural projection rather than color effects.
Which is better for touring and theater?
The MAC One White is purpose-built for theater and broadcast with ultra-quiet 23 dB(A) operation, compact size, low power consumption, and long-throw narrow beam intensity. The Exterior Projection Pro is designed for permanent architectural installations.
What is the lumen difference and when does it matter?
The Exterior Projection Pro outputs 4,700 lumens versus the MAC One's 2,500 lumens, making it suitable for high-brightness outdoor projection. The MAC One's lower output is sufficient for indoor theater, broadcast, and touring venues where ambient light is controlled.
