Description
The Free Color B300 hybrid BSW moving head is an all-rounder of serious caliber!
Beam, spot and wash in 1 fixture with a super powerful 300W LED source. A linear zoom from 2° to a full 45° takes you in no time from a super tight beam to a wide, space-filling spot! 14 deep colors, 6 fixed gobos, 6 rotating gobos including 5 glass color gobos. An effect function normally found only on the priciest fixtures. Its 8-facet prism is unique compared to many other moving heads. A super-fast strobe function, a linear focus and a frost function for wash effects complete this powerhouse.

Pro Tip: Set the zoom to its narrowest (2°) and use the motorized focus for razor-sharp gobo projections at greater working heights — this gets the most detail out of the fixed gobo wheel. Then program the wide zoom setting as wash moments in the same fixture patch; nothing extra to swap in the rig.

FAQ
How many DMX channels does the B300 need?
The B300 works in two modes: 16 or 19 DMX channels. The 16-channel mode is enough for most live setups; the 19-channel mode gives you finer control over individual effect parameters such as prism speed and gobo selection.
What's the difference between the two gobo wheels?
Wheel 1 has six rotating gobos you can spin for spiral and dynamic effects. Wheel 2 has six fixed gobos for sharp, static projections. Both are independently controllable and can be used alternately or stacked together for super cool "morphing" effects.
Is the B300 suitable for outdoor use?
The B300 is not water- or moisture-resistant. You'll need to protect it well, and it should never be installed permanently outdoors.
Does the B300 work without a lighting console?
Yes, besides DMX512 control, the B300 has a standalone auto mode, sound control and master/slave linking. Handy for smaller installations or as a backup if the console fails.
