Overall, x.Spot is a great light. You can light up our whole amp line with two of the fixtures. One of my favorite features is the zoom, and the images hold their focus while zooming, which is a really nice feature. We create a kind of funky landscape behind the band. The lighting design itself is more abstract, Marrinan notes.
Spots are all hung upstage.
They are used a lot on the set and the stage for the band. I use them a lot on intros. They are also being used on the audience with the zoom feature all the way out, but with rotations on the audience. Spots are our main source of upstage lights. And that's where we can really show the beams off by pointing at the downstage edge.
