The GLP impression X5 is the next generation of high performance, professional LED washlights. Building on the legacy of its highly renowned predecessors, it incorporates cutting edge technology with extensive user input.

The 19 powerful and exclusive 40 Watt LEDs provide enormous power and allow the fixture to penetrate through even the most difficult lighting environments.

The light source at the heart of the impression X5 was developed specifically to offer an expanded and more comprehensive color gamut. Incorporating a brand new algorithm, called iQ.Gamut, the impression X5 is able to deliver accuracy, quality and consistency on every occasion. White points are calibrated perfectly to the black body line and the expanded gamut can be accessed via three different color control modes, depending on user preference. Beyond standard mixing, a virtual color wheel is included with 64 referenced LEE color filters.

Each LED source in the impression X5 can be individually controlled for full pixel mapping effects and a comprehensive effects section is included that has twin layers and many dynamic pattern macros.

Using the new iQ.Gamut algorithm, the impression X5 creates perfectly calibrated white spectrum outputs with CRI 90 at 6,500 Kelvin and the ability to select other fixed white points down to 3,200 Kelvin, maintaining a high CRI of 85+. Color temperature changes to the output – whether in white or color – can be achieved through a separate, dedicated channel. Further settings for comprehensive control are standard and include Magenta/Green-Shift and a Tungsten Simulation mode with 2×5 settings for different simulations.

With new super-fast zoom mechanics, the impression X5 offers a staggering 1:16 range running from a punchy 3.5° to 60° with homogenous light distribution across its entire range and without visible hotspots.

A new front face with a circular design has been conceived to include geometric patterns for great looking effects without any effort.

Featuring GLP’s trademark Baseless Design, the impression X5 weighs just 13.3 kg / 29.3 lbs, and since it is able to rig in any orientation with the X5 Bracket, the impression X5 looks elegant in any environment. The impression X5 has been designed for use in live concerts, television, film and broadcast, theatre and musicals, live events, exhibitions, music festivals, houses of worship and other application settings, and can easily be mounted into set pieces.

Built-in accessory mountings on the front of the impression X5 allow users to easily add front accessories such as top hats or honeycomb shields.

16-bit movement, with speeds that go from silent to breakneck speed, the impression X5 runs through 540°/650° of Pan and 220° of Tilt with full feedback control.

The impression X5 can be controlled via DMX, ArtNet or sACN and has an integrated Near Field Control Sensor for setup and adjustments from a smart device. Also onboard is a GLP iQ.Service Module, compatible with the GLP iQ.Service App, and the new GLP FPO (Flexible Protocol Option) Port for alternative control protocol options.

Additional features include: variable PWM settings, auto ranging power input, multiple performance modes, failsafe ethernet connectors and much more.
