Step into intelligent lighting automation with the Daslight DVC FUN. Designed for users who are moving beyond basic plug-and-play setups, this compact interface gives you real control over your fixtures via computer or standalone mode — without the complexity or cost of large-scale light consoles.
Ready out-of-the-box — feeds up to 128 DMX channels via a 3-pin XLR output, giving you enough capacity to rig LED pars, moving heads and basic effects in a small venue or DJ booth.
Expandable as your rig grows — thanks to Daslight’s Smart Upgrade Technology (SUT), you can unlock up to 512 channels live and standalone mode when you’re ready to scale up
Dual-mode operation — Use it live connected to your Mac or PC with the included software (compatible with Windows 10/11 & macOS 10.15+). Then when you're on-site or want to leave the laptop behind, upload your show to the device’s internal memory (50 k) and run it standalone.
Compact and efficient — USB-C for easy connection, lightweight plastic housing for portability — ideal for mobile rigs, bar installations or as a dedicated unit for themed nights.
Affordable entry into pro lighting — The DVC FUN offers professional style control for a fraction of the cost of large multi-universe systems, making it a great stepping-stone for budding lighting programmers.
Take your lighting from “just on” to LIVE.
Whether you’re a band, a DJ, or a lighting designer, this is your gateway to synced, pro-looking lighting without breaking the bank.
For Bands
Easily map your MIDI gear (keyboard, drum pad or controller) so your lights hit exactly when you hit the beat or change tempo.
Pre-program scenes per track, or trigger live cues — your lighting now breathes with your music, not just reacts.
For DJs
Tempo-map your set via MIDI clock or Ableton Link so lights pulse, burst and drop with the track.
For Lighting Designers
Integrated 3D visualiser lets you design your rig, map your lights, test cues and visualise the result before you load in real gear — so you don’t need to spend thousands on dedicated 3D software.
A full lighting ecosystem: fixture library, drag-and-drop patching, scene building, effects, and playback all included in one package.
Key strengths
Starts with 128 DMX channels, but you can upgrade up to 512 as your rig grows.
Works live with your computer, or works as a standalone device — perfect for fixed installs or touring.
Affordable entry point compared to high-end consoles, yet delivers professional-level features.
Make it yours
You don’t have to wait for “someday” to have great lighting — start today. With the DVC FUN you get scalability, ease of use and the tools to make your lights not just visible, but part of the performance.
We believe in full transparency — here are the trade-offs to keep in mind:
Limited channel count by default — Out of the box you get 128 DMX channels live which is great to get started, then you can upgrade to 512 via dmxsoft.com
Software mode is Express edition only — With the default package the Daslight software runs in “Express” mode: for example in Daslight 4 Express there’s a limit of 32 steps per scene, no super scenes, no live mixer, and a maximum of 4 scenes playing simultaneously. Everything else including the 3D visualiser is included.
This can be easily upgraded for a fee at dmxsoft.com
Single DMX output — One 3-pin XLR port means one universe (unless you split further), so very large rigs with multiple universes will require extra hardware or another interface.
Stand-alone memory modest — The internal memory is 50 k, which is sufficient for many small shows
Additional licences/upgrades may be needed — If you unlock the full version of the software, extra channels, Art-Net universes and other premium features, there are separate licence costs. Some users have flagged this.
DVC FUN Specs:

Included is Daslight 5 (Express) which is an incredibly powerful, intuitive and easy to learn DMX Software which has easy Midi Mapping so you can use your own controllers as wings, trigger from backing tracks, or even use a touchscreen or ipad as a remote controller.
