CHAUVET DJ

collapse expand iconDescription

The CHAUVET DJ GigBAR 2 is an all-in-one LED and laser lighting solution perfect for musicians, DJs and venues. This innovative product combines four LEDs—two LED Derby lights and LED PARs, laser and strobe effect mounted on one bar to produce a professional light show with minimal setup. Weighing only 14 pounds, the GigBAR 2 is compact yet powerful, allowing you to transform any space into an exciting concert environment.

Customize Your Light Show With the Included IRC-6 Infrared Remote

Easily control the GigBAR 2's LEDs and laser using the included IR remote. Select from multiple lighting programs to create a customized light show or trigger the laser and strobes manually for maximum impact. Save your favorite settings to program buttons for quick recall during performances.

Amazing Laser Effects and Beam Shows

The GigBAR 2's integrated laser produces an array of beam effects that will energize any crowd. Choose from tunnel, spiral, scatter and beam shows, then activate the laser's random and sound-active modes to synchronize dynamic laser displays with your music.

LEDs Provide Color Washes and Accent Lighting

The GigBAR 2's LEDs produce wide color washes and spot lighting that highlight performers and architectural details. Select from pre-programmed lighting shows or create your own using the automated and sound-activated modes. Fade or instantly change colors for a customized look that matches your performance.

Road-Ready and Easy to Set Up

Weighing only 14 pounds, the GigBAR 2 is ideal for mobile DJs and bands, fitting into a standard gear bag or case for transport to gigs.

In love!!!!

Easy clean set up and take down! I like that you only have one power cord for all of the light. Its a hastel buying separate lights and then a light stand and then to deal with all the power cords (and the headache to store all separate lights) .... not with this wonderful light set up...its compact, comes with a custom case for your lights and a bag for your stand, you have and extra power connection in the back of the light bar in case you want to add additional lighting AND it also comes with the side arms that you could attach to the ends so you could add extra lighting if you choose to. its great to have the wireless foot switch to change modes, i don't use it but its great! This light system is great overall i lost count on how many times i said GREAT! i think i had too much frosted flakes this morning... =) Plus this is one of the many great presents my wife has giving me! love you babe.

Great effects, horrible design..

I was searching for an impactful effects light that was easy to set-up and convenient.. This Gigbar 2 is definitely that.. The issue is, it only fits 1 3/8" diameter poles (speaker stands or the one included). I have an abundance of 1 1/2" universal light stands that I wanted to use it on so I could add more fixtures and raise it higher, but this is not capable of that. I will be returning this item in hopes that someday Chauvet will re-design it to fit 1 1/2" light stands. It would have looked great as the centerpiece to my light show..

    I Use it for my back yard parties. Love it, easy to set up and tear down. Also love the ease of use you don't need a DMx controller, the built in features work perfectly for my application. I've been neglecting the lights portion of my party experience for way too long before buying this. Totally recommend to all!

    Hello, I recently purchased the Chauvet Gigbar 2 and was wondering which DMX controller would be able to utilize all it's features best? Example: Chauvet Obey 6, 10, 40 etc.. (I'm new to the DMX world). The foot switch and IRC remote work well, but would prefer more physical control through DMX. Or maybe a dongle for computer to XLR control. Any recommendations would be helpful. Thanks.

    The Obey line from Chauvet would be a great start and i feel would be the best affordable controller to do what you want to do. American DJ DMX Operator Pro would be another great DMX controller to try
