Wybron Updates Moiré Gobo App

A new version of Wybrons Moiré Gobo Library iPhone App is right around the corner. In the update version of the app, Wybron has included gobos from Goboland, inLight Grayscale and GAM Halftone gobos.

That means from the original 1,500 gobos that you were able to select from, you now have over 5,000 gobo’s to choose from all right with in the app. That is 6 different manufacturers of gobos!  All searchable by title, stock number as well as browse by type, such as Trees.

Current owners of the Moiré Gobo App can download and upgrade to the updated version next week when it added to iTunes. For new users, the current price on the Moiré Gobo App is $10 through iTunes.

Wybron Releases New iPhone App: Moiré Gobo Library

We reported a week or so ago that Wybron was on the verge of announcing a new iPhone app.  The rumors are true, earlier this week, Wybron announced the release of their latest iPhone App, Moiré Gobo Library. More information from the official Press Release:

A new iPhone application by Wybron packs more than 1,500 gobos into a sleek device that fits in the user’s pocket. The Moiré Gobo Library lets users browse, search, and experiment with A-size gobos from GAM and Lee, with more to come. Adjust the focus of the gobo to simulate a blur effect, spin the gobo at different speeds and in different directions, and use the “TwinSpin” feature to overlap and spin any two gobos at variable speeds and in any direction.

The Moiré Gobo Library, which also works on the iPod touch, lets the user:

• View gobos on a white or black background, simulating the look of the gobo itself or the image it produces on a dark stage
• Search gobos by name and number
• Sort gobos by name and number in ascending and descending order
• Maintain a list of 12 most recently viewed gobos
• Send comments directly to the developer with a feedback button

The idea for the Moiré Gobo Library came, in part, from the suggestions of customers using Wybron’s Gel Swatch Library, which features nearly 1,000 gel colors. The Gel Swatch Library was recently named one of Live Design magazine’s Products of the Year for 2008-09. It took home an ESTA Member’s Choice Award from LDI in October 2008.

“With our new app, you don’t have to buy dozens of different gobos and load them into a fixture to see how they’ll look,” said Scott Longberry, Wybron engineer and developer of the application. “Just turn on your iPhone or iPod touch, and you can play with hundreds of different gobos to see what happens if you overlap them, blur them, spin them – or whatever effect you want.” The app should be useful for a wide variety of lighting venues, including nightclubs, concerts, theatres, churches, cruise ships, and more, Longberry said.

To buy the Moiré Gobo Library for $9.99, visit Apple’s App Store through the icon on the iPhone or iPod touch, or go through iTunes.
