Martin ERA 400 Performance Warm LED CMY Color Mixing Light
Description
Martin ERA 400 Performance Warm LED CMY Color Mixing Light
The Martin ERA 400 Performance WRM is a compact, road-ready moving head that delivers professional output in a lightweight package at 22.5kg (49.6lbs). Its modular design allows effects to be swapped in under a minute, making it equally suited to touring rigs and permanent installations. The fixture combines a potent 300W warm white LED engine with full framing optics and sophisticated color control, positioning it as a versatile workhorse for theaters, concert venues, and corporate applications.
Optical Performance & Output
This fixture produces 6,000 lumens of fixture output with a 15,500 lumen light engine, delivering exceptional brightness for its class. The 3,200K color temperature with CRI >91 ensures accurate warm tungsten emulation, while the 1,200 Hz LED refresh rate eliminates flicker in video and broadcast work. Electronic dimming extends from full intensity to zero percent with crisp, flat field optics maintained throughout the zoom range.
Control & Beam Shaping
The 1:3 zoom range (10–30°) adapts quickly to varying trim heights and stage sizes without sacrificing output. Full beam control is achieved through CMY color mixing, a 9-position color filter wheel, 7-position rotating gobo wheel, 9-position static gobo wheel, a variable iris, and a rotating 3-facet prism. The full framing system with 4 independently controllable blades rotates ±45° for precise image projection and soft-edged gobo framing, enabling complex design effects with minimal fixtures.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this light suitable for video and broadcast recording?
The 1,200 Hz LED refresh rate eliminates flicker in video capture, and the 3,200K color temperature with CRI greater than 91 ensures accurate warm white rendering on camera without color shift. This makes it reliable for any streaming, recording, or broadcast application.
How much light does it produce and will it work in large venues?
The ERA 400 Performance delivers 6,000 lumens of fixture output with a 15,500 lumen light engine and a 1:3 zoom range (10–30°) that adapts to different trim heights and stage sizes. It's designed for mid-sized touring rigs and fixed installations in theaters, concert venues, and corporate spaces.
What beam-shaping tools does it include?
The fixture offers CMY color mixing, a 9-position color filter wheel, 7-position rotating gobo wheel, 9-position static gobo wheel, a variable iris (0–100%), a rotating 3-facet prism, and a full framing system with 4 independently controllable blades that rotate ±45° for precise image projection.
How is it controlled and what power does it need?
DMX control is via 3-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors, with Neutrik powerCON TRUE1 power input. It runs on 100–240V AC at 3.8A @ 120V or 2.0A @ 230V with temperature-regulated forced-air cooling.
What does modular design mean and how portable is it?
Effects (gobo wheels, filters, prisms) swap in under a minute without tools, allowing rapid reconfiguration between shows or setups. At 22.5kg (49.6lbs) with a compact 379mm × 237mm × 632mm footprint, it's road-ready and fits touring and fixed-installation rigs alike.
