Lighted Instruments

LED InstrumentsViolectric musicians play on custom-built Violuminescence™ LED lighted violins, viola, cello, drums and harp. Using wireless controls and the DMX protocol–the standard for controlling stage lights–means our instruments can make a lighting change with the music or show, or sync with your stage lighting. When needed, we supply the specifications to your lighting designer and they can take control of syncing the lighting to the stage or room or lighting changes.

Our LED instruments are just one way we raise our performances to the next level. Let us make your show or event memorable and contact us today for a booking.

Lighting Technology

Our instruments are custom-built using custom wireless LED controllers and LED strips containing red, green and blue LEDs.  The technology all fits inside the instruments with no external cords or belt packs to get in the way of performing. By mixing the red, green and blue LED intensity, any color can be reproduced to match your brand, event colors or stage decor. Wireless connectivity range usually exceeds 100 yards, depending on environment and wireless interference.

Each instrument is controlled individually and can differ from the others.  This allows for chase patterns and rainbow colors. Anything you imagine can be programmed, including fades, strobes, flashes, pulsing and more.

Michelle with LaserBow

String musicians are picky about the weight and balance of their bows, and a small change can have a significant negative impact on their performance. Our LaserBows are the first technology for lighting bows that illuminates the ‘stick’ without any changes to weight and balance. They are the result of a year of research, experimentation and partnership with a cutting-edge materials manufacturing company.

LaserBows are currently available in red, green and blue.  We are experimenting with a new white bow, and will have multi-color, wirelessly controllable LaserBows in late 2018.

 

Exclusive

We are the only performing group in the world playing on wirelessly DMX controlled lighted string instruments. Anyone can stick some lights on an instrument, but it takes cutting-edge technology to create a light show that actually dances to the music or can be synced with the stage lighting, all without impacting the musical performance. We continue to push the technology forward, never satisfied with the status-quo. Even now, we are building the next generation of lighted instruments utilizing cutting-edge materials currently unavailable to others. Working with manufacturers, we are able to produce proof-of-concept prototypes using materials that are not-yet released to the public.
