Hardware Control.
Enhance Your Experience.

Build Trusses With Software Mac Free Software

Do you prefer the physical controls on a lighting console? Then you can have the best of both worlds. Lightkey integrates seam­lessly with any standard MIDI controller and DMX console (through DMX-In). You can map each hardware control to whatever feature you like and build your own custom-tailored show control desk to trigger cues, presets and sequences, adjust fixture properties, tap the beat, and whatever else you need.

Designed for Creativity.
Take Your Light Show to a New Level.

Designed for the needs of creative lighting designers, Lightkey breaks free from the old thinking about DMX values and channels. Thru advanced fixture profiles it understands all your fixtures’ properties—like Color, Gobo, Shutter, Prism, Zoom—, and provides specially-designed, easy-to-use controls for each of them. The current state of your fixtures is always visible in the live preview. Simply concentrate on the perfect light show and let Lightkey translate it to the proper DMX values.

  • Virtual Light Beams

    Virtual light beams show your lights’ real-world positions and also reflect intensity, color, focus, zoom, iris, frost, and shutter/strobe states.

  • Built-In Stage Editor IMPROVED

    The built-in graphical editor lets you recreate the stage or dance floor on the screen. Apart from your fixtures you can add shapes, trusses, and custom images.

  • Copy & Paste

    Easily copy and paste properties and effects between fixtures – even fixtures of different types. Of course, you can undo as well.

  • At a Glance

    Little “bubbles” in the Preview show you at a glance which fixture properties are overridden or defined by a preset, sequence, or cue.

  • On-the-Fly Changes

    Quickly change any fixture property on the fly—perfect for nightclubs and parties where you don’t have a song run sheet in advance.

  • Intelligent Design View

    The Design view automatically adapts itself according to your fixtures and their properties so you only see the controls you really need.

Real-World Pan/Tilt Locations

Lightkey knows your moving light’s pan/tilt range, home position, and rotation direction. With this information it calculates the exact beam position on the stage or dance floor, so the preview always shows the fixture’s real-world position, letting you point your lights wherever you like with just a single mouse click. Even if you select multiple devices from different manufacturers, Lightkey will calculate the individual DMX values for each of them so they all point in the same direction.

Effects.
Infinite Possibilities.

Lightkey’s powerful effects engine makes it easy and fun to create amazing dynamic looks. Choose from over 50 effect templates or create your own pattern, curve, or movement effects. Effects can be applied to almost any fixture property and stored in presets and cues while staying editable all the time. Apply effects to multi-beam LED strips and matrixes. Synchronize effects to music. Overlay multiple effects for countless possibilities.

Beat Control.
Stay in the Rhythm.

With

Effortlessly sync your light show to music. Lightkey connects to your DAW, DJ app, or audio analysis software through MIDI Clock or Ableton Link. Or simply tap the beat and Lightkey will continue at the same tempo. You can adjust the speed of individual cues at any time with a Beat Multiplier.

  • Tap the Beat

    Tap the beat with the mouse, keyboard, or a MIDI controller, and Lightkey will pick up the tempo.

  • MIDI Clock

    Receive a MIDI Beat Clock signal sent by a DJ software, mixer, or audio analysis tool.

  • Ableton Link

    Ableton Link syncs beat information between apps on the same computer or local network.

Always in Sync.
Run Your Lighting From Ableton Live.

The unique Live Triggers feature makes it quick and intuitive to trigger lighting cues directly from Ableton Live: Simply drag cues you created in Lightkey to the Ableton Live timeline. If you’re a live performer, you can create a light show that’s perfectly in sync with the music without any manual operation during the show.

Setup.
Surprisingly Simple.

An interactive assistant guides you through the entire setup process: Configure DMX output, patch your fixtures, create a visual representation of the stage. And if you ever need a fixture profile that is not in the built-in library, simply send us the DMX specs and we’ll create it for you within a few days.
