Overview

Versatile ILS-compatible lighting in a compact, multi-effect fixture.

Built to streamline modern lighting setups while expanding creative possibilities, the Chauvet DJ Core 5×1 ILS LED effect light delivers multiple visual roles from a single, compact fixture. Designed for DJs, mobile entertainers, and small venues, it combines pixel-mapping effects, dynamic chases, blinder-style punch, and broad wash coverage into one road-ready solution. A powerful COB RGB+WW light engine with five 35-watt LEDs provides rich color output with natural white tones, while ILS compatibility and flexible control options make it easy to integrate into both simple and advanced lighting rigs. Fom subtle ambience to high-energy moments, the Core 5x1 ILS light is designed to adapt visually as the energy in the room changes.

Multi-Role Visual Effects for Dynamic Lighting Looks

The Core 5×1 ILS is built to adapt as a show evolves. Pixel-mapping capabilities create animated eye-candy looks that add motion and depth, while chase effects bring energy to dance floors and performance moments. When more impact is needed, it delivers strong blinder-style output for audience-facing cues, then shifts effortlessly into wide, even wash coverage for ambient or functional lighting. This versatility allows a single fixture to handle multiple roles throughout a set without reconfiguring the rig.

COB RGB+WW Color Engine With Natural White Output

At the center of the Core 5×1 ILS is five 35-watt LEDs covering red, green, blue and warm white elements, designed for smooth color blending and consistent output. Saturated colors transition cleanly without harsh separation, while the warm white element produces natural-looking color temperatures suited for faces, stages, and event spaces. Wide beam and field angles help distribute light evenly, providing consistent coverage in small venues, mobile events, and club environments.

Integrated ILS Control and Flexible Programming Options

Native ILS compatibility allows the Core 5×1 ILS to sync seamlessly with other ILS-enabled fixtures, simplifying coordinated light shows for fast, preprogrammed setups. For users who prefer more hands-on control, multiple DMX channel modes support deeper customization, while RF, stand-alone, and master/slave operation offer practical solutions for smaller rigs or quick setups. This range of control options lets the fixture scale from plug-and-play use to more advanced lighting systems without forcing a single workflow.

Power Linking and Toolless Hardware for Scalable Rigs

Designed with efficiency in mind, the Core 5×1 ILS supports power linking to reduce cable runs and keep setups clean and organized. Built-in, toolless connecting hardware allows multiple fixtures to be physically linked together, making it easy to create linear arrays or expand coverage across a space. These features help speed load-in and teardown while keeping multi-unit rigs visually cohesive and easy to manage.

Road-Ready Construction for Mobile and Installed Use

A rugged housing and slim footprint make the Core 5×1 ILS well suited for frequent transport and demanding schedules. Its durable design stands up to gig-to-gig use, while the compact form factor fits easily into mobile DJ rigs, event production systems, and small permanent installs. For performers and technicians seeking a single fixture that delivers creative versatility, synchronized control, and dependable performance, the Core 5×1 ILS offers a practical, professional lighting solution.
