FENG-YI Lighting Bai Lu's 2026 Suzhou "Decade of Light" Tenth Anniversary Concert was a highly personal, nostalgic celebration marking ten years of the artist's career. 

Project Background

EXO's 2026 "EXO PLANET #6 – EXhOrizon" Macau concert was a landmark stop on the group's sixth world tour, their first large-scale solo tour in six years . The two-show engagement at Galaxy Arena (May 22-23) demanded a visual centerpiece matching the "horizon" theme and the group's reputation for cutting-edge stagecraft . As a specialist in Stage Automation Lighting, we deployed 120 units of 12-meter stroke 20cm DMX-controlled Luminous Balls, powered by our DLB Lifting Hoist—a Lighting Winch system engineered for synchronized, silent overhead motion.

Project Challenges

Pushing Technological Boundaries

▪ Venue Scale
Galaxy Arena's 16,000-capacity demanded effects visible from every seat. 120 Kinetic Hoists with 12-meter travel ensured complete coverage.
▪ ISynchronization Precision
Coordinating 120 independently controlled units with sub-100ms latency across the array for flawless constellation formations and cascading starfall effects synchronized to EXO's high-energy choreography.
▪ Acoustic Silence
As a vocal-centric performance, all 120 Lighting Winch units had to operate below 28dBA to preserve pristine audio, especially during ballads.

Solution

We delivered a comprehensive Stage Automation Lighting system featuring 120 DLB Lifting Hoist units, each controlling a 20cm Luminous Ball with independent RGBW LED illumination .

Choreographed Motion Library: Pre-programmed sequences included:

    • Horizon Rise: All 120 balls ascending in synchronized waves from floor to ceiling, mirroring the tour's "EXhOrizon" theme.

    • Constellation Mode: Individual hoists holding at various heights to form EXO's logo and star patterns.

    • Starfall Mode: Cascading descents simulating meteor showers during climactic drops.

    • Galaxy Spin: Synchronized circular motion across the entire array.

Timecode Integration: 

All Kinetic Hoists were locked to SMPTE timecode from the audio console, with frame-accurate triggering for the group's key vocal phrases and choreography cues.

Silent Drive Technology: 

Utilizing servo motor control with vibration-dampening mounts, the system achieved resonance-free operation <28dBA.

Technical Highlights

Groundbreaking Industry Innovations

DLB Lifting Hoist System: 

120 individually controllable Lighting Winch units with ±1mm positioning accuracy across a 12-meter vertical stroke, enabled by 16-bit high-precision servo positioning.

20cm Seamless RGBW Balls: 

High-CRI (>90) LED engines with advanced diffusion eliminated pixelation. Each unit individually calibrated for broadcast-standard uniformity .

 

Ultra-Quiet Operation: 

All hoists measured below 28dBA at 1m, leveraging low-noise motors and vibration-dampening mounts—essential for preserving EXO's vocal artistry.

Implementation

Phased Project Timeline

Phase 1: Three-month pre-production including Galaxy Arena laser-scanning, 3D simulation, and creative collaboration with the tour's production team.

Phase 2: Off-site full-system assembly of all 120 Lighting Winch units onto modular trusses, followed by 200-hour cycle testing.

Phase 3: Factory pre-programming of all motion profiles using the concert's audio tracks and venue model.

Phase 4: 48-hour on-site installation window with primary rigging, module flying, and quick-connect cabling.

Phase 5: Automated laser calibration using RDM protocol for position verification, followed by full-system integration testing with lighting and video.

Phase 6: Technical rehearsals with EXO's team, fine-tuning cue timing against live choreography.

Phase 7: Two-show concert execution with dedicated on-site monitoring and remote backup control system.

Project Outcomes

Reshaping Live Entertainment Standards

The 120-unit Kinetic Hoist array became a defining visual element of EXO's Macau concerts, acclaimed by fans and production team alike.

Audience Impact:
The opening "Horizon Rise" sequence—120 luminous balls ascending in perfect synchrony—drew audible gasps from the 16,000-person audience and became the most shared clip on social media.
Artistic Success:
EXO's director praised the system's "ability to shift from intimate constellation to explosive galaxy in seconds," calling it "the perfect visual partner for our choreography."
Technical Excellence:
Zero positioning errors or synchronization failures across all 120 Lighting Winch units, with operation within ±1mm accuracy throughout both shows.

Lasting Impact

Diffusion of Technological Innovation

Key Takeaways

1. Scale Defines Arena Impact: 120 Kinetic Hoists with 12-meter stroke transformed Galaxy Arena into a living cosmos—proving that quantity and range matter for large venues.

2. Synchronization Creates Spectacle: The ability to coordinate 120 Lighting Winch units with sub-20ms latency turned individual fixtures into a single, intelligent organism.

3. Silence Preserves Performance: In a vocal-heavy concert, sub-28dBA operation was essential to preserving EXO's pristine audio mix.

4. Tour-Ready Engineering Builds Trust: Pre-assembled, modular systems ensured consistent performance across multiple cities—a hallmark of professional Stage Automation Lighting solutions.

5. K-Pop Demands Innovation: Korean productions are known for pushing technological boundaries . Our Kinetic Hoists met and exceeded those expectations.
