All features
CH 001Simple
Easy to use.
No need to be a lighting tech. Plug in your interface, add your fixtures, play: every button shows the colour it switches on, each fixture's page builds itself and the complicated settings stay out of your way.
- Buttons that show what they light up and glow while they play
- TAP for the tempo, an AUTO mode that follows the music
- Sync with your Link-compatible DJ software: Serato, Traktor, VirtualDJ, djay…
CH 002Prompt to lightshow
Describe the mood. The AI builds the show.
Tell it the mood of your bar, your party or your show: “amber lounge for happy hour”, “energy build for the final number”. The AI composes the colours, the movements and the buttons, you see the result in 3D, and nothing reaches the fixtures without your OK.
- A complete lighting theme from one sentence
- A photo of a manual: the channel table is read for you
- Your venue described in words becomes a fixture layout
Built-in AI, in beta. Turning a written running order into a full show is coming soon.
