FEATURES 

  This LEDCON-XL is probably THE controller you were always dreaming of. 

  Preprogrammed colors, fades and chases for almost ALL types of LED projectors 

  8 extra faders to control your light effects, foggers, moving heads with 4/5 MSL mode, etc. 

  DMX input with merger function to connect any extra controller on the same DMX line 

  Standa

rd 19” rack format so the unit can be fixed in our Controller Case 3U 

  Prepared for wireless DMX: just plug-in an optional WTR-DMX DONGLE ! (Briteq® order code: 4645)  

  The projector control section is a more performant version of our famous LEDCON-02 Mk2: 

  4 or 8 channel LED light modulator with integrated, speed or music controlled, chases. 

  For each of the 4 or 8 channels, you can select the DMX setup of the projector you are using. (RGB, 

RGBW, RGBWA, etc.) so the unit becomes compatible with almost any LED projector that is available 
on the market ! 

  Each of these channels can be switched on/off if needed. (blackout for certain projectors) 

  Extra UV button for the use with for example 6-in1 LED projectors that include an UV LED 

  Separate dimmer and strobe fader. 

  Fixed color mode: Instant access to 9 pre-programmed colors with adjustable fade-over time 

  Static chase mode: 12 different color chases with manual speed control 

  Sound chase mode: 12 different color chases with audio triggering via the audio input or the integrated 

microphone 

  Spectrum mix: 32 different spectrum mix colors, including color fades 

  The extra fader section is comparable to our SCENEMASTER SCM-1: 

  This makes it possible to control extra projectors, light effects, foggers,  etc. via the same DMX line 

  Perfect to control moving heads equipped with our unique 3, 4 or 5MSL mode (DMX master/slave) 

  You can use the faders as 8 individual DMX channels or create 8 scenes (combination of faders)
