Gobos are not essential, but they are a great way to enhance your light show. A gobo is a slim piece of metal or plastic that is designed to cover the lens of your moving head spot light to produce an eye-catching effect. They can project a great range of eye-catching patterns and shapes, such as stars. You can also use a gobo to break up solid beams of light and turn them into several beams. Many of our moving head spot lights include gobos, and often feature a rotating wheel with numerous patterns to choose, and the ability to add your own custom gobos. In addition, you can often choose between a static gobo effect, or a rotating and shaking effect.
