PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Precision Sunlight, Reimagined in a Panel.The Aputure NOVA 9° 2x1 is not just another LED panel—it is a hyper-narrow, long-throw lighting powerhouse designed to do what traditional panels can't: create intense, directional shafts of light and crisp shadows. Powered by the breakthrough BLAIR Light Engine, it delivers the most accurate tunable white light in the industry, rivaling the throw and intensity of a 5,000W tungsten Fresnel while maintaining a slim, IP65-rated form factor.

Long-Throw Precision Lighting
The NOVA 9° 2x1 is engineered for applications that require concentrated intensity at distance. Its narrow beam creates a powerful shaft of light that maintains output over long throws—perfect for:
- Simulating natural sunlight through windows
- Creating hard shadows and defined highlights
- Lighting large sets, stages, and exterior scenes
- Commercial, narrative, and broadcast production
For added versatility, the included flat diffuser expands the beam to 80°, delivering smoother luminance and controlled softness when needed.
Professional Control & Connectivity
Designed for modern production workflows, the NOVA 9° 2x1 offers comprehensive control options:
- Onboard controls with high-resolution rear display
- Sidus Link app control via Bluetooth
- 16-bit DMX512 in/out with RDM
- LumenRadio CRMX wireless DMX
- Art-Net & sACN via dual locking Ethernet ports
- Batch firmware updates via Sidus Link, USB, or DMX
With multiple dimming curves, four fan modes (Smart, High, Medium, Silent), and dual output modes (Max or Constant), lighting technicians can optimize performance for any production environment.
Built for Demanding Productions
The rugged IP65-rated housing protects against dust and weather, making the NOVA 9° 2x1 a reliable choice for studio installations, stage use, and location shooting. The fixture features a removable yoke for flexible rigging and can be stacked into multi-light arrays for high-intensity lighting walls or directional clusters.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the Aputure BLAIR light engine? The BLAIR engine is Aputure’s advanced LED chipset consisting of Blue, Lime, Amber, Indigo, and Red emitters. Unlike standard RGBWW chips, BLAIR uses Indigo to fill the spectral gaps in the near-UV range, resulting in better skin tones and more natural-looking white light that mimics the sun's behavior on different textures.
- Can the NOVA 9° be used as a soft light? Yes. While its native 9° beam is designed for hard, directional light, the fixture includes a flat diffusion panel that expands the beam angle to 80°, turning it into a high-output soft source with exceptional punch.
- How does it compare to tungsten lighting? The NOVA 9° 2x1 outputs more light than a 5,000W tungsten Fresnel at a distance of 5 meters, yet it consumes only 650W and offers full color temperature tunability without the need for gels.
Whether used as a powerful key light, a long-throw punch source, or part of a multi-fixture array, the Aputure NOVA 9° 2x1 Tunable White LED Panel delivers exceptional brightness, color accuracy, and professional reliability for today’s demanding productions.
