Four LED Moonflower Effects in One!

Add a Chauvet 4Play 2 moonflower effect to your lighting rig and instantly up the energy of your dance floor. This 4-in-1 moonflower fixture gives you four individual 4-color moonflower effects lights you can set up in countless different ways. Sound-activation mode gives you the freedom to set and forget your 4Play 2, and let the music control the effect. You can also take control of its programs via DMX. And thanks to its versatile mounting bar, it's easy to add a Chauvet 4Play 2 moonflower effect to any lighting rig.

One fixture, four independent moonflower effects lights

What's better than adding a killer moonflower effect to your DJ lighting rig? How about adding four of them. Each of the 4Play 2 lighting effects fixture's four lights is its own mid-sized 4-color moonflower effect, capable of casting razor sharp beams of red, green, blue, and white light across your dance floor. And thanks to their fully adjustable mounting yolks, you can easily configure the Chauvet 4Play 2's lights in countless different configurations.

Multiple operation modes give you all of the control options you need

If you're relatively new to lighting, then you'll happy to discover how versatile Chauvet made the 4Play 2's sound-activation mode. In sound-activation mode, your 4Play 2 listens to your music, automatically detecting the tempo and the downbeat. It's a great way to get a killer light show without the need for programming. If you're already using a DMX system, then you'll absolutely love how much control you can take of your 4Play 2 via a mere six DMX channels.

The perfect addition to your 4BAR system or other lighting rig

There's one additional operation mode that makes the 4Play 2 a particularly unique lighting effects fixture: master/slave mode. Master/slave mode lets you daisy-chain it to your Chauvet 4BAR series fixture, instantly adding another layer of complexity to your light rig, without the need for fancy programming. What's more, the 4Play 2 can easily mount to your 4BAR system's tripod stand (or just about any other stand), turning it into the ultimate centerpiece.

Nice Set of Lighting to add to your Dj Arsenal

The DJ 4Play 2RGBW lighting set works nice and has a nice range of how far the light beams can project on the dance floor. The lights are adjustable which I like and you can direct the lights as you desire; however, one must raise the height (taller than normal) of light pole/speaker stand in order to obtain full efficiency of the light projection.

Great Lighting system; poor attachment to poles

I previously owned the original 4Play using a DMX controller. But I wanted to go completely wireless, so I decided to invest in the new Chauvet DJ 4Play 2 RGBW LED Moonflower Effect. The lights are bright and sharp. The light patterns are variable and work well with the sound settings. The lights can be controlled with the Chauvet DJ IRC-6 Infrared Remote (sold separately). The carrying case is a bit flimsy for a lighting unit. I would have prefered on similar to the Chauvet DJ 4BAR USB 4 x RGB Par and similar lighting units.

The biggest problem with the 4Play 2 RGBW LED Moonflower Effect is the system used to hold the bar in place on a light pole. It was redesigned from the original by eliminating the pressure plate that worked on the previous model. Now it's simply a metal-to-metal knob that does not hold the bar in place securely. It is the most disappointing part of this unit. A pressure plate should have been kept in the design.

For those who have purchased this unit, I have created a workaround below that will cost less than a dollar to fix this flaw in the unit.

1. Purchase from a supply store a 5/16 inch screw protector.
2. Cut the tip of it at ⅛ inch
3. Place the knob all the way into the lighting unit
4. Place the screw protector on.loosen the knob to place onto your pole. and tighten it to see if it holds
properly before going to step 5.
5. Place superglue into the 1/8 inch stub of the screw protector.
6. Press the screw protector in firmly until it holds in place.
7. Once dried, unscrew the knob only as far as the end of the
screw protector.
8. Place the 4Play2 unit onto your pole.
9. Tighten as needed. Don't overtighten or the screw protector
may rip since it's only rubber.

Hopefully, Chauvet will make a pressure plate for use in this model or future models.

Nice, but not very bright

These do a good job of being controlled by DMX, but the color choice is limited to red, green, blue, and white. It's also not very bright. They work best with lots of smoke as ancillary lights. Also creates a decent effect in near blackout with all other lights off (again, lots of smoke). That said, they really need to be twice as bright to be featured lights. Don't use them unless you already have floods to light the area.

Terrible - very dim, worthless on stage

Beware that a whole bunch a little, is still only a little. Just bought this dud and won't be using it.

Sweetwater lighting techs, DJs, and musicians alike have the deepest respect for Chauvet, both on the personal and on the professional side. Many of us first became acquainted with Chauvet before LED technology caught on, and it's been impressive to see their range of fixtures grow. Today, Chauvet offers some of our most popular LED lights, from drop-in PAR replacements and intelligent lighting instruments to exciting effects, foggers, haze machines, and more. We also love their innovation. Chauvet has brought LED technology to classic fixtures like ellipsoidal and Fresnels, while their D-Fi system has made wireless DMX truly accessible. Top it off with powerful hardware controllers, next-gen DMX control software, and much more, and we're happy to recommend the Chauvet gear we not only stock but also use ourselves.
