MADRIX Forum

Which one is better: 3d meteor lights DMX or 3D meteor lights with DVI control, and what is advantages?

Hello Hilton,
Welcome to the Forum.
.
It depends on where you want to use the fixtures.
Would you like to use the fixtures for mobile applications (you have to build it every time you need the fixtures) or for a fixed installation like in a club?

Thank you.

i need the lights for a fixed installation in a club
about 200 pcs one meter long, and i planing to buy Madrix key pro.

For MADRIX it is equals what you want to use. In MADRIX there is the possibility to patch both.
.
If you want to use "DMX Output" you need also DMX Interfaces like the MADRIX LUNA:

The advantage of DMX controlled fixtures is: It is easier to configure the fixtures and to find misstakes in the patch.
.
If you want to use "DVI Output" the fixtures will be controlled by a so called DVI controller of the desired fixtures. This controller will be plugged at a output of the graphic board or the network interface card.
The advantage of DVI controlled fixtures is: Besides the DVI controller you will need no other hardware.
But the disadvantage is: It will take longer to configure the installation. Because besides the Patch in MADRIX mostly you have to create a DVI Map.
