With a dimmer you can adjust the brightness according to the situation. But our LED dimmer is a special one. It is equipped with 8 outputs, which can be controlled separately per DMX. A feature really not every dimmer comes up with.

The different devices can hence be switched to the outputs and can be controlled individually. The number of the connected devices varies depending on the voltage and the amperage. The total power output of the EUROLITE AT_DIMM 8 DMX Dimmer adds up to 6 ampere at 24 volts.

Perfect surroundings for the AT-DIMM 8 are the gastronomy or retail shops for permanent installation. These special fields often see demands for brightness adjustments. Thanks to our dimmer you can always respond in a quick and flexible manner. Read more »

The MADRIX PLEXUS is a brand new hardware interface from the makers of the LED lighting control software MADRIX. The USB 2.0 DMX512 interface and Art-Net node is now available here at the Steinigke shop.

The next-generation live or stand-alone interface

The MADRIX® brand brings professional LED lighting control solutions based on innovative software and hardware to the lighting market. The new MADRIX PLEXUS expands the MADRIX product range of hardware interfaces, which already includes the highly successful MADRIX NEO and the USBone.

The PLEXUS is mainly a USB 2.0 DMX512 interface. It controls up to 1024 DMX channels per device via DMX512 or Art-Net and works as a stand-alone interface or live controller. It is the first interface to offer stand-alone playback of MADRIX light shows and effects. 2x DMX-IN/OUT ports, 1x Ethernet port, 1x Extension port, 1x USB port, and the SD-Card slot make this new device more versatile than any before it.

Perhaps, the EUROLITE LED Bow Bar itself looks a bit unimposing. But plugged in and connected with other Bow Bars it shows an imposing performance. Especially, when the bows are connected and form a circle.

Thanks to the 288 LEDs (96 red, 96 green, and 96 blue ones), each with a diameter of 5 mm, the light output is more than adequate to colorfully illuminate clubs or bars. A bar is split into i 4 segments and 24 subsegments, respectively. They can be controlled via  4, 6, 9, 15, 24 or 27 DMX channels – just how you prefer or the venue demands it.

Beside circles it is also possible to form waves. Therefor, the Bow Bar has to be turned to the appropriate direction and then connected to the previous element. Due to the intelligent mechanism the connection is very firm.

In interaction with the straight EUROLITE LED BAR-384 RGB 5mm you can also place straight passages in the installation – for some doorway arches and the like.

In the beginning there was one LED beneath one lens. Mixing colors required different colored LEDs arranged in parallel. But times change and so one LED turned into several. In 2009 multichip diodes for the first time gathered more than one LED beneath a lens and moved the color mixture in the area before the light emission.

The 3in1 or tricolor LEDs with three LEDs beneath one lens became very popular and, for the last two years, standard in some fields of the market. But times change again now. Followers start to spread their wings and to become the new standard. Read more »

Cobra Net, that’s the solution for complex multi-channel installations for the audio field.

There are many solutions for multi-channel installations but not all of them will prove satisfactory. OMNITRONIC presents with its new CobraNet™ transmitters and processors today’s latest approach opening the door to a faster and more reliable audio solution, because existing local area networks (LAN) can be used.

Today the professional audio branch is often confronted with different needs: Fast working, tight schedules, low budgets and complex tasks must be considered. This balancing act can only succeed with a recent and well-engineered audio technology. CobraNet™ is such a technical solution not only making promises but also keeping them. The system was developed by Cirrus Logic (former Peak Audio) and is a combination of software, hardware and network protocols allowing real-time uncompressed, multi-channel, low-latency digital audio distribution over a standard Ethernet network. CobraNet™ is transmitted using standard Ethernet packets and a standard network infrastructure – this can be a financial advantage for large-scale audio installations like stadiums or convention centers, because they don’t need to install a new cable system.
