Designed for Stage, Events, and Fixed Installations
Whether you're setting up a live stage, a club night, or a high-end reception, this 512-channel DMX controller establishes itself as the brain of your lighting desk. Its large programming capacity allows you to create complex sequences and ensure a perfectly timed show, from curtain rise to finale.
For mobile performances, its robustness and 6U rack format simplify integration into flight cases. In fixed installations (bars, restaurants, multipurpose rooms), the 3/5-pin XLR connectivity facilitates interfacing with existing DMX networks while guaranteeing optimal compatibility with modern fixtures.
For DJs, Lighting Technicians, and Providers Who Want Full Control
Mobile DJs, touring lighting technicians, theater stage managers, or event providers: you benefit from precise and responsive control. The patching of up to 48 channels per fixture suits both small setups and more ambitious rigs, while the 48,000-step memory offers the necessary margin to structure your "scenes" and transitions without compromise.
The two programmable rotary knobs provide instant control over critical parameters (levels, colors, speeds), ideal for adjusting a balance, energizing a chorus, or timing a blackout, all without taking your eyes off the stage.
