ColorSource Linear
A long lineage of quality color
ColorSource Linear is a high-output, low profile strip light featuring the proven recipe of dual red, green, blue, and lime LEDs – the same mix as found in ColorSource PAR and ColorSource Spot. Unlike many effect-focused batten fixtures on the market, ColorSource Linear is designed for high-quality, high-output theatre-grade stage lighting.
Available in 0.5 meter, 1 meter, and 2 meter lengths, ColorSource Linear enables multiple fixtures to be mounted end to end with even spacing of their homogenized optics.
Long, light life
ColorSource Linear has been independently tested using the LM-84 standard. These tests have confirmed what we knew from the beginning: it is built to last! 55,000 hours. The math: if you ran a ColorSource Linear for three hours a day, seven days a week, all year long – we are talking about 50 years of light. That's a lot of beautifully-lit shows.
Color Integrity
ColorSource luminaires are factory-calibrated to ensure consistency. They feature a four-color mixing system offering bright, vibrant colors and perfectly-mixed pastels.
The thermal management algorithms built into every ColorSource fixture ensure that the colors you choose in rehearsal are the colors you get during the show.

how it works
ETC Fixture Product Manager Jim Uphoff introduces the ColorSource® Linear. This fixture, with its strip light form factor, uses the same proportionate recipes of red, green, blue, and lime LEDs as the ColorSource® PAR. The Linear fixture was designed to allow multiple fixtures to be mounted end to end with no visible break in light, and is available in original or Deep Blue array options.
