Control sACN DMX from Rekordbox

Hi there,

The lighting I have is set up via network, using the sACN protocol over multicast. It would seem reasonable Rekordbox could add support for sACN universes within the software, but right now I don't see any support. I don't currently own any DMX512 control interfaces.

What are my options for controlling network DMX lights from Rekordbox?

Sorry, the only DMX output option is using the RB-DMX1 interface. No other lighting protocols are currently supported.

No worries! So right now, if I wanted to control the lights at this venue, I would need:

  • An RB-DMX1 interface
  • A DMX512 to sACN converter, passing the DMX universe data output from Rekordbox to the specified multicast channel

Although pricey, this could work in theory.

You say "currently supported" - is support for other lighting protocols on the roadmap? I am not opposed to paying for a license to support Art-Net or sACN lighting rigs. Should I make a post about this in feature suggestions section? I used to do beta testing for Mixvibes years ago, and would happily provide feedback/support on new and upcoming features.
