VC-1-DMX: Video Lighting Converter - Dynamic Light Shows—No Operator Needed
True Synchronized Lighting Made Easy
Connect video, audio, and MIDI sources to the VC-1-DMX for automatic conversion and distribution to all your DMX gear. It’s even possible to daisy-chain multiple lighting devices and control them at once. Four channel maps are available via dip switches to control 512 DMX signal channels, and you can customize them all from a computer using the VC-1-DMX Setup Tool.
Advanced Video Analysis
HDMI video signals* are analyzed in up to 32 color areas and converted into luminance information for each color. You can then assign the colors to DMX channels for synchronized control. For example, if the video image is divided horizontally into eight segments and assigned to eight DMX lighting devices lined up horizontally, the lighting will track the horizontal movement of the video image perfectly. *HDCP compliant.
Lighting That Moves with the Music
The VC-1-DMX also analyzes sound information received at the HDMI and analog audio inputs. Add flash effects along with the beat, change the rotation speed of a mirror ball or other device to match the music tempo, or automatically turn off the lights when there is no sound. A powerful 15-band audio filter added with Version 2.0 allows you to set lighting controls to specific audio frequency ranges for deep synchronization between the lights and music. Using the VC-1-DMX Setup Tool, you can define the bandwidth and gain level of each band for precise command of your DMX rig.
Go Further with MIDI Control
If you want extended control over your system, the VC-1-DMX has you covered with integrated MIDI-to-DMX conversion. Connect a hardware MIDI controller and use MIDI control change messages to switch DMX maps* and adjust DMX parameters such as global dimming, tilt, pan, and more. Or use MIDI note information from keyboards, electronic drums, and other instruments to create lighting effects that follow live music performances. USB MIDI is also supported, allowing you to control your DMX setup from lighting or music production software on your computer. *The default MIDI control change settings of the BOSS FS-1-WL provide direct support for VC-1-DMX map selection (wired MIDI cable connection required).
Customize Your Rig
Using the VC-1-DMX Setup Tool software for macOS and Windows, you can quickly configure the VC-1-DMX for all your DMX lighting hardware. Freely change assignments across 512 DMX channels to match the control needs of your specific gear and easily share settings with multiple VC-1-DMX units.
