VJ3-5 DMX FEATURESDMX is an addressing & communication protocol that allows a centralized controller (such as a lighting console) to address from 1 to 512 dimmers individually. Those dimmers can be used to control lighting equipment, lasers, fog machines, other material,.. And now also ArKaos VJ.
To accommodate with High-end DMX consoles, ArKaos now implements an additional fixture-like control protocol. In this mode the DMX controls are split into several layers, for each of which, you can use pre-assigned parameters to easily select and control your visuals and effects. The Simple Control, Tiny Fixture and Full Fixture modes perfectly combines with programmable DMX consoles.
This implementation offers much more flexibility than most hardware media servers while lowering your costs since most recent low cost computers are capable of playing high quality video.
