Stage Effects

Kit for live events, theatre and parties, sourced from AVSL. The range runs from fog, haze, bubble and snow machines to par cans, wash lights and DMX controllers, with lighting stands, T-bar truss and 3-pin XLR DMX leads from short patch lengths to 20m. Disco balls, motors, UV bulbs and water-based fluids round it out, so a rig can be built and run from one place.

What the range covers

Stage effects pull together the kit that gives a live event its atmosphere and movement. The range runs from fog, haze, bubble and snow machines through to par cans, wash lights and the controllers that drive them, so the look of a room can be built up in layers rather than from a single fixture. Alongside the effects sit the practical parts that hold a rig together: lighting stands, T-bar truss, DMX leads and water-based fluids.

Effects machines

Fog and haze fill the air so beams and gobos read clearly, while bubble and snow machines bring a softer, playful touch for parties and seasonal shows. A dual wheel bubble machine works through fans rather than heat, and fog units span a broad band of power for spaces of different sizes. Many take wireless remote or timer control, which keeps an operator free during a set.

Lighting and control

The lighting side covers LED disco ball effects, UV bars and par cans, with DMX controllers and 3-pin XLR leads tying the rig together. Leads run from short 0.75m patch lengths up to 20m, so fixtures spread across a stage can still reach the desk. Stands and truss raise the kit to a useful height and keep cabling off the floor.

Choosing for the room

Start with the size of the venue and the mood you are after. A compact unit suits a small bar or a mobile set, while larger spaces benefit from higher output and a stand or truss to lift the beams. Pair any haze or fog machine with the matching water-based fluid, and keep a cleaning fluid to hand for regular upkeep.

Fluids and upkeep

Water-based fog and haze fluids are sold in handy bottle sizes, with fragranced options to scent a room and a dedicated cleaning fluid for the machine itself. Running the correct fluid and cleaning on schedule keeps output consistent across a season of events. Free UK delivery over £99, worldwide shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a fog machine and a haze machine?
A fog machine pushes out dense bursts of cloud for big reveals and dance-floor looks, while a haze machine lays down a fine, even mist that hangs in the air to make beams and gobos show up. The range covers both, from compact 400W foggers up to 2000W units, plus dedicated haze and low-mist generators.

Which fluid should I use, and can I mix types?
Match the fluid to the machine: fog fluid for fog machines, haze fluid for haze units, and snow or bubble fluid for those effects. The water-based fog, snow and bubble fluids come in 1L and 5L sizes, with 5L haze fluid and scented fragrance options for fog and haze. Stick to one fluid type per machine and follow the maker's guidance rather than mixing.

How do I control several lights together?
DMX links the rig in a daisy chain. A controller such as a 192, 512 or 24-channel desk sends signal down 3-pin XLR DMX leads to each fixture, and booster distributors split the line when you run long cable or many heads. Relay and dimmer packs let you switch and fade non-DMX gear from the same desk.

Will the lighting stands and truss hold a full rig?
Load ratings are given per item. The lightweight stand takes a 1m T-bar, the heavy duty stand carries up to 50kg on a 1.2m T-bar, and the triangle truss system is rated to 120kg across T-bar stands. Spread fixtures evenly, keep within the stated load, and use the carrying bag to move stands between venues.

Are the par lights and wash lights suitable for outdoor use?
Most par cans, wash bars and effect lights are rated IP20 for indoor use only. One weatherproof par can in the range is rated IP65 for outdoor and damp settings. Check the IP rating on each light before using it outside, and keep fog, haze and bubble machines under cover.
