Hardware
Keep your gear.
No need to buy a new interface. FutureLights talks to the USB DMX boxes DJs already own, to MIDI controllers, and to the network when you want to grow.
CH 011DMX outputs
USB interfaces and network.
Your USB DMX interfaces
Works with your existing USB DMX interfaces, 1 and 2 universes, several at once, hot-pluggable.
FTDI interfaces
FTDI-based interfaces, as Open DMX or DMX USB Pro, detected with nothing to configure.
Art-Net and sACN
Node discovery on the network, unicast by default, adjustable universes and priority. Load-tested on 64 universes.
Built-in simulator
Prepare the whole show from your sofa: the simulator and the 3D Studio stand in for the fixtures.
44 HzThe DMX engine runs on its own at 44 frames per second: if the interface stutters, the light keeps going.
Beta: each interface model is validated with early users before version 1.0.
CH 021MIDI controllers
Your pads, learned in one move.
Plug in your controller, even mid-setup: it is detected on the fly, and you can use several at once.
Learning
Touch a button on screen, hit a pad: it's learned. Buttons, masters, TAP, Blackout, pages.
Colour LED feedback
Pads light up in the colour of the button they control.
Grid mode
A grid of pads becomes a page of the desk, with nothing to learn.
MIDI clock
The tempo follows the clock of your mixer or your software.
Beta: profiles for common controllers are being validated.
CH 031Compatibility
Your shows belong to you.
Open format
Readable JSON files and published schemas: your shows are nobody's prisoner.
QLC+ export
Export to QLC+, the free software: fixtures, scenes, effects and desk.
Open Fixture Library
The free fixture library, built in and compared with your profiles rather than overwriting them.
Your existing shows
Bring your current light shows: import, then re-import without losing anything you added.
Cloud backup
Encrypted on your PC before upload, in beta: after each change, never in the middle of a party, restorable on another PC.
One-click updates
An alert when a new release is out, an “Update” button, a restart of a few seconds.
