Clay Paky Mythos 2
Description
The Clay Paky Mythos 2 is a hybrid spotlight and beam fixture designed for rental use where a sharp, consistent beam and versatile effects are required. It combines a powerful OSRAM Sirius HRI 440W lamp and a large 160 mm front lens to deliver up to 24,000 lumens with excellent beam parallelism and a long, well-defined shaft of light.
Key Features
- Dual-mode optics: Electronic zoom in Spotlight mode from 4° to 50° and a Beam mode offering a minimum fixed aperture of 2.5° with a pipe effect.
- High-output lamp: OSRAM Sirius HRI 440W discharge lamp for strong, stable illumination.
- Advanced color and gobo control: CMY color mixing with three gradual color wheels, 14 special color filters, CTO and CTB filters, 6 HQ rotating dichroic gobos, and 18+1 fixed metal gobos.
- Visual and optical effects: Indexed animation disc, two indexable rotating prisms (8-facet and linear 4-facet), frost filter, and six beam reducer filters for concentrated beams.
- Precise control and movement: High-precision dimmer and stop-strobe, rapid and quiet pan and tilt, Art-Net and RDM compatible electronics.
Use Cases
The Mythos 2 is suitable for concerts, theater, corporate events, televised productions, and any rental situation requiring a bright spotlight that also doubles as an eye-catching beam fixture. Its combination of tight beams, crisp focus from the first millimetres after the front lens, and layered effects makes it useful for front-of-house key lighting, aerial beams, and feature projections.
