Take the lighting of an event into your own hands with our huge range of LED light effects. With any event or venue, great lighting will always make it look more professional, especially DJ sets and weddings where the overall lighting effect is essential. The wide range of LED lights we have to offer all produce different effects that are all great in their own right, so you can truly create a light show to your liking.
Most of the LED light effects fixtures that we offer have DMX control which allows you to customise the light show to your exact preference. By using DMX, you can adjust different aspects of an effects light such as dim, colour, flash and pattern as and when required. It is best to utilise DMX with multiple lights at a time, but you can still use it effectively with a single light fixture.
The majority of our disco light effects have standalone or sound-to-light mode available. The standalone option will set the light to go through its built-in preset light shows and are great for smaller venues like pubs. The sound-to-light mode means that the light will pick up sound from a built-in microphone and then change colour or effect in time with the music being played, providing a synchronised light show ideal for more professional applications.
How does LED lighting affect performances?
LED lighting can make a huge difference to any performances, both by working with the music and also by conveying the theme of the music/performance. If you are using sound-to-light control then the light will react to the beat of the music being played which makes any event look highly professional and impressive. If you are using LED effects lights for a non-musical performance such as a drama or theatre show, you can use the LEDs to convey the theme of a certain scene, like love or anger being red for example.
For a mobile DJ, it is important to have a lighting setup suitable for the genres of music you're playing. For example, if you are playing classic 80s disco then a jelly moon would work well, or if you are playing modern drum and bass or house music, a strobe and laser combination would be ideal. Having suitable LED light effects in your set will give it that extra edge that your audience will enjoy more.
By using DMX control which is an available feature on the majority of our LED light effects, you can achieve a synchronised light show. Using DMX control means that you can have 2 or more light fixtures producing the same effects at the same time, and this instantly makes any event look more professional.
What is the best DJ disco light?
The best DJ disco light for you is based purely on your personal preferences. That being said, certain effects lights will be more effective for different rooms and purposes. We offer many different effects lights that will produce varying results which will all be ideal for different events. For example, we offer smaller units that produce moonflower effects which are great for discos, and we have DJ banks that feature a wider light dispersion, perfect to light up a larger part of a stage for live performances.
Our huge range of Beamz DJ disco lights caters to any user for a variety of different events. If you want to expand on your pre-existing lighting setup, we have many small units that will prove to be a great addition. These smaller effects lights won't be effective enough to use on their own, so we also offer large disco light packages with multiple effects on a single stand. These units have varying effects and are extremely bright given their compact size, perfect for mobile DJs who need an all-in-one system for quick assembly times.
If you are looking for a disco light effect fixture that you want to use with your current lighting setup, you would need to look for one with DMX control or the capability to be run in master/slave synchronisation. DMX control gives you the choice for the light to be used in time with your other effects lights and is ideal for more professional use. If you only have a couple of lights and you want to expand on them, master/slave control gives you the option for two or more lights to be used in sync with each other. This provides a synchronised light show which will be sure to impress any crowd.
Which LED light effect should I purchase?
The LED light effects that you choose will obviously depend on your preferences as well as how you intend to use it. If you are going to be utilising it in a live setting along with music performances or DJ use then one of our effects lights that have multiple elements such as strobe, laser and gobo would be great for you. If you want a smaller light for home use when hosting parties then you won't need anything too bright, however, your personal preferences will be the main factor towards your decision.
If you aren't sure exactly which light would be best for you, please feel free to contact us and we will happily guide you in the right direction.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of LED light effects are there?
There are a huge variety of LED light effects available that each provide different effects and colours. For example, there are some lights that provide static washes of colour, and others that produce moving patterns with several colours on surfaces. Lasers are also common, as well as strobe lights and UV LED lighting.
Are LED light effects bad for your health?
No, LED light effects are generally considered safe for your health when used correctly. Some health concerns caused by LED lights include headaches due to prolonged exposure, eye strain from looking directly at the light source, and seizures caused by flashing lights (this will generally only affect people with photosensitive epilepsy). Overall, LED lights can be used completely safely around the majority of people.
How do you connect LED party lights to music?
Although LED light effects can be used alongside music, there is not any direct connection between lighting units and audio equipment via cables or Bluetooth, for example. Many LED party light effects have a sound-to-light function, which works using a built-in microphone on the light’s housing. The microphone picks up sound from the room, such as music, and then synchronises the light output to the sound. You can also program lights using DMX for custom shows, but this is only generally applied during large, professional events.
How long do LED light effects work?
LED light effects are designed to be more energy-efficient and longer lasting than traditional bulb lighting, meaning that they can be used for extended periods of time over the course of years. LEDs can still fail when used excessively, but they are designed for daily use with several hours of run-time without any issues.
How do LED light effects work?
LED light effects work using multiple LEDs of different colours, which are combined to create an array of effects. Many LED party lights have built-in automatic light shows that can be selected using their menus, which is great for beginners who require a plug-and-play lighting solution. DMX controllable lights can be used with external controllers and computers where you can create custom light shows, which is generally used in professional lighting applications during festivals, club nights, and theatre shows, for example.
What are the advantages of LED lights?
There are many advantages provided by LED light effects. Some of these include energy-efficiency, long lifespan, durability, variety of effects, and versatility. Using LED effect lighting for parties is a great choice, as the lights can be used for extended periods of time while remaining safe for the environment and providing impressive visual effects.
Can I use LED lights for home parties?
Yes, LED light effects are a great way to add extra excitement and atmosphere to your parties at home. We offer a wide range of party LED lights that provide various effects, including flashing colours, white strobes, smooth colour transitions, gobo patterns, laser lights, and UV illumination, for example. There are also many options for home parties that have more than one effect in the light, making them a versatile and worthwhile addition to your house parties.
How do you hang LED party lights?
To hang LED light effects, you can use the light’s supplied mounting bracket (if applicable). The bracket can be used to hang the light from stands, T-bars, and metal truss tubes using clamps, which keeps the light at an elevated position for better coverage and visibility throughout your party venue.
Can LED effect lighting fixtures be used outdoors?
For outdoor use, it is important to check if your LED light effects are IP-rated, as this will determine their level of protection against moisture and dust. Anything rated IP45 or higher can be used outdoors in wet conditions, and anything below that should be used under shelter to avoid direct contact with rain or moisture.
How bright are LED party lights?
The brightness of LED light effects will depend on the fixture’s specifications. The higher the LED wattage, the brighter the light output will be. If you are unsure which party light would be best for your purposes, please feel free to contact our sales team. They will happily guide you through different options to help you make an informed decision.
