Features

DMX / ArtNet Output

ArtNet by Default - Sends lighting data via ArtNet protocol to any compatible network node or monitor
Universal Compatibility - Works with any ArtNet-to-DMX interface like Enttec ODE, DMXking, or similar devices
Universe Mapping - Flexible mapping in config/artnet.json (e.g., DMX universe 1 → ArtNet universe 0)
Multiple Nodes - Support for multiple ArtNet nodes on different network addresses

Master Fader - Global intensity control (0-100%) that scales all DMX output in real-time without changing individual fader positions
FX BPM Control - Set the speed of color effects from 1-480 beats per minute for perfect timing
FX Fade - Adjust smooth color transitions from instant (0%) to full beat interval (100%)

Compact Fixture Cards - Clean, organized layout showing each fixture with its channels
Vertical Faders - Intuitive faders arranged in channel order for precise control
Real-Time Values - Live DMX values (0-255) update as you move faders
Responsive Layout - Automatically adapts to your screen width for optimal viewing on any device

10 preset color buttons with instant activation:

Dynamic effects that run independently on the server:

Random 1 - All fixtures display the same color, cycling through random colors at BPM speed
Random 2 - Each fixture gets a different random color, changing at each beat for a dynamic look
Random 3 - Alternates between even/odd patches with black, creating a strobe-like effect
Random 4 - Chaser effect lighting one fixture at a time in sequence with random colors
All effects support smooth fade transitions based on FX Fade setting
Active effect buttons highlight to show what's running
Multi-color highlighting for Random 2/3/4 shows all active colors

ArtNet Nodes - Add, edit, and delete ArtNet output nodes with IP addresses and universe numbers
Universe Mapping - Configure which DMX universe maps to which ArtNet node and universe
Colors Editor - Edit RGBW color definitions (0-1 range) with live preview, add/remove colors as needed
Global Settings - Configure default output mode and frames per second
Auto-Reload - Changes are saved immediately and the server reloads automatically without restart
Live Preview - See color changes in real-time as you adjust RGBW sliders

All settings can be managed through the web UI or by editing JSON files directly:

config/fixtures.json - Fixture profiles with channel definitions (dimmer, red, green, blue, white, etc.)
config/patch.json - Patched fixtures per universe with DMX start addresses
config/artnet.json - ArtNet target nodes and universe mapping configuration
config/colors.json - Color definitions for static colors and FX (RGBW values 0.0-1.0)

Real-Time Performance - Low-latency DMX output with configurable frame rate
Multiple Universes - Support for multiple DMX universes through ArtNet
Flexible Fixture Profiles - Define any fixture type with custom channel layouts
Cross-Platform - Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux
No External Dependencies - Self-contained web server, no separate software needed
RESTful API - HTTP API for integration with other software
Auto-Discovery - Web UI automatically opens at http://localhost:5555 on startup
