Standout features of the DVC GOLD:
Supports 1024 DMX channels (2 universes) in live mode, out of the box.
Expandable to 2048 channels* (4 universes) in live mode.
Stand-alone capability: microSD card memory allows the unit to run pre-programmed shows without a computer.
Computer connectivity via USB-C and Ethernet (RJ45) for live control or integration in networked systems.
Includes full licences for the Daslight software (i.e., not “Express”-capped) – works with both Daslight 4 & Daslight 5.
Built-in front keypad / buttons for direct access & triggering of scenes.
Connectivity for DMX In*/Out, network triggers, remote control apps (iOS / Android) and more.
With 1024 DMX channels available, you can drive a full rig of moving heads, LED bars, washes, and effects – perfect for a DJ floor or club environment.
Stand-alone mode lets you load a show once and run it autonomously in off hours or for house lighting effects when no operator is present.
Real-time control via keyboard or remote app means DJs or lighting techs can trigger looks live, on-the-fly.
Compact footprint (160 × 90 × 45 mm) and light weight (~0.3 kg) make it easy to carry and integrate into a tour flight-case.
Full DMX channel capacity gives flexibility: whether you’re using simple PAR bars or full moving-head rigs, you’re covered.
Software compatibility (Windows/Mac + remote apps) means you can prep scenes in studio, then use stand-alone mode for the gig.
Expandability ensures future-proofing: if your rig grows, you can upgrade to 4 universes.
Network connectivity and remote triggering (UDP, dry contacts) make it install-friendly for complex setups or installations.
Full software licence means you’re not limited by “Express” mode caps—ideal for professional setups needing full functionality.
The stand-alone mode with microSD memory is a strong feature: you can program a lighting scenario, load it into the unit and deploy it in a fixed installation (e.g., building façade, restaurant bar) without needing a PC.
Ethernet connectivity means integration with building automation or remote control systems is feasible.
Compact form and flexible I/O make it easy to mount discreetly and interface with existing DMX wiring.
We believe in full transparency so here are some things to know.
To unlock the full expansion (e.g., 4 universes) you’ll need to purchase an upgrade via the SUT system. So while the base is strong, growth requires further cost.
While stand-alone mode is very useful, some features (like Art-Net output) may only work when device is in live mode (software connected) depending on upgrade.
As with any DMX/software system, initial setup and patching requires some technical know-how (especially for more advanced rigs), so allow time for learning or hiring a designer.
Power supply for stand-alone mode may not be included (USB-C cable is included; external PSU may need purchase)

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.
