Chauvet Professional Rogue R2X Wash LED Zoom Fixture

Chauvet Professional Rogue R2X Wash: Compact RGBW LED Yoke with Pixel Zone Control

The Rogue R2X Wash is a compact yet powerful RGBW LED yoke wash fixture that brings pixel mapping capabilities, high-output optics, and smooth dimming into a versatile and tour-ready platform. With (19) 25-watt RGBW LEDs, this unit delivers over 6,400 lumens of blended output while maintaining tight beam consistency and a smooth zoom range from 7.3° to 64.3°. Each diode is individually calibrated and grouped into five control zones for pixel-based effects, chase sequences, and animated washes—all without requiring external media servers.

The fixture supports a full range of DMX profiles (15 to 56 channels), each with 16-bit dimming, selectable PWM from 600Hz to 15kHz, and RDM functionality for remote setup. Color temperature macros, high-speed strobe, and onboard FX engines are included across all modes. The unique optical system enhances beam blending and minimizes hotspots, making this unit suitable for both aerial and stage wash applications.

Construction features include a durable flame-retardant polymer housing, Neutrik® powerCON® loop-through connectors, and both 3- and 5-pin DMX. The rear-panel OLED screen provides intuitive navigation for fixture mode, address, and PWM selection. Weighing just 22.8 lbs and offering wide compatibility with Rogue and Maverick rigging hardware, the R2X Wash is a favorite among lighting designers needing fast setup, visual consistency, and pixel control in a single unit.

Real-World Applications and Sound Roles:

• Pixel-mapped wash effects for DJ tours, clubs, and EDM stages
• Scenic backlighting and uplighting in theaters or houses of worship
• Front wash or back truss FX in live concerts and broadcast studios
• Architectural accents and pixel chases for immersive installs

Where This System Excels

• Pixel Wash FX: 5-zone LED control enables layered ring chases and color shifts.
• Wide Zoom Coverage: Motorized zoom from 7.3° to 64.3° for narrow beams or full-stage washes.
• Broadcast-Ready PWM: Adjustable refresh rates up to 15kHz for flicker-free camera use.
• Compact & Tour-Friendly: Under 23 lbs with universal omega bracket support.
• Multi-Personality DMX: Six profiles with 16-bit dimming and RDM support for any console workflow.
• Consistent Color Output: 19x 25W RGBW LEDs deliver deep primaries and smooth pastels across the beam.

Control Modes for the Rogue R2X Wash

The Rogue R2X Wash offers six DMX control modes to accommodate a wide range of programming environments, from simple color mixing to advanced pixel control. Each profile supports 16-bit resolution on pan, tilt, and dimmer channels, with smooth zoom and strobe control included across all modes. RDM (Remote Device Management) is built-in for remote addressing and configuration, and PWM refresh rates are user-selectable up to 15,000 Hz to support broadcast and camera-critical environments.

• 15-Channel Mode: Core color mixing with RGBW, zoom, dimmer, strobe, and movement.
• 17-Channel Mode: Adds enhanced dimmer and movement refinement.
• 22-Channel Mode: Unlocks basic zone FX and color macro control.
• 33-Channel Mode: Expands zone FX speed, macro indexing, and dimming logic.
• 54-Channel Mode: Full zone control with higher-resolution FX access.
• 56-Channel Mode: Adds master speed and pixel FX overlays for advanced playback.

All DMX personalities are selectable via the rear OLED screen, with intuitive menu navigation and shortcut key functionality for quick patch changes.

LED Color Engine & Zone Control in the Rogue R2X Wash

The Rogue R2X Wash is powered by (19) 25-watt RGBW quad-color LEDs, each calibrated for consistent brightness and color uniformity across the entire beam field. With 5 independent control zones, designers can create subtle ring fades, color chases, or aggressive pixel bursts—all without additional media servers.

Each LED diode supports full 16-bit dimming per color, with linear and S-curve dimming modes available to suit theatrical or concert-grade programming styles. The fixture includes factory-tuned color temperature macros and built-in FX patterns for quick deployment, and supports smooth pastels, deep primaries, and blended white hues thanks to its wide RGBW gamut.

Zone mapping can be controlled directly over DMX in advanced channel modes, making the Rogue R2X Wash a pixel-friendly tool for timeline shows, matrixed arrays, or centerpieces requiring layered wash effects.

DMX Channel Modes & Trait Structure in the Rogue R2X Wash

The Rogue R2X Wash includes eight selectable DMX personalities: 15CH, 17CH, 22CH, 33CH, 33CH MS, 54CH, 54CH MS, and 56CH. This gives programmers the flexibility to match the fixture’s control depth to the needs of each event or console setup.

• 15–17CH: Standard color and movement with basic zoom, strobe, and dimmer control.
• 22–33CH: Unlock zone-based color effects and speed/macro parameter layering.
• 54–56CH: Provide full zone control, FX indexing, master speed, and macro blend options.

All modes support RDM, 16-bit resolution on movement and dimming channels, and include PWM selection options for compatibility with live camera feeds. The trait layout follows a logical DMX order, allowing fast programming across major consoles like GrandMA, ChamSys, and Avolites.

Zoom Optics & Beam Control in the Rogue R2X Wash

With a motorized zoom range of 7.3° to 64.3°, the Rogue R2X Wash can shift effortlessly between tight mid-air beam looks and wide stage or cyc floods. The fixture’s high-efficiency lens system ensures excellent beam consistency, with minimal chromatic aberration and uniform color mixing even at full zoom.

The lens train supports fast transition speeds, making it ideal for live cue stacks or timecoded zoom chases. At narrow zoom, the fixture excels in aerial applications, while at full width, it delivers even wall washes or scenic uplighting with no visible hotspots. Beam shaping remains clean and precise, regardless of zone mapping status or color overlays.

Power Management & Dimming Performance

The Rogue R2X Wash delivers 6,418 lumens of output while maintaining a compact electrical footprint, with a maximum draw of 344W at 230V. Full-range 16-bit dimming across RGBW channels enables seamless fades and blackout transitions without stepping or flicker.

PWM refresh rates are user-configurable from 600Hz to 15kHz, allowing designers to optimize for flicker-free camera use in both live broadcast and film applications. Internal dimming curves (linear, square, inverse square, and S-curve) can be selected per show or environment to align with desired control behavior.

Thermal regulation is handled automatically via onboard temperature sensors, which actively protect the LED engine under continuous full-output conditions. This ensures consistent output during long-duration scenes and protects fixture longevity during touring or architectural installs.

How to Deploy the Rogue R2X Wash in the Field

The Rogue R2X Wash is designed for flexible deployment in live production, club installs, and theatrical rigs. Its compact footprint, integrated omega bracket compatibility, and under-23 lb weight make it suitable for both flown and ground-based configurations.

• Truss-Mounted Arrays: Use the included omega bracket and clamps to fly fixtures in even grids or arc lines for color wash or beam FX mapping.
• Stage Deck or Set Lighting: Position directly onstage for uplight, performer wash, or accent applications where smooth zoom is needed.
• Pixel-Mapped Arrays: Deploy in grouped clusters to leverage the 5-zone pixel ring control for timeline chase effects or architectural visuals.
• Club or DJ Booth Rigs: Hang over dancefloors or in booth side positions to deliver high-output RGBW motion and zone pulses within compact vertical space.

Power is handled via standard Neutrik® powerCON® connectors with loop-through, and all fixtures include both 3-pin and 5-pin DMX options for integration into any data topology.
