Intelligent lighting control, redefined.
Luminair for iPad is like a dream come true for lighting designers and anyone else who works with creative lighting. A wireless, multi-touch DMX lighting console that both looks AND feels great to use. A lighting console that a novice user can learn in minutes and master in an hour. Best of all, it's actually fun to use, leading to enhanced creativity in your designs.

Luminair uses the Art-Net protocol, so it's compatible out of the box with lots of existing equipment on the market. It's perfect for controlling color-mixable LED fixtures, dimmers, studio lighting, moving lights, media servers, and any other DMX enabled equipment. Use Luminair as the ultimate remote focus tool, for advanced architectural lighting, or simply as the centerpiece of your DMX lighting rig.



All grown up and sophisticated
Luminair for iPad is the result of over 2.5 years of advanced multi-touch development, and it shows. Building on top of every feature included in Luminair for iPhone, the iPad version adds new advancements that take it way beyond. Features like fully editable cues, project-based draggable color swatches, pop-up contextual controls, external keyboard support, a user-configurable UI, plus a user interface and performance enhancements that make it the first software-based multi-touch lighting console truly capable of live performance. Switching and changing looks has never been so quick.

Multi-touch optimized
Luminair has a brilliant and refined user-Interface, with powerful touch-optimized controls throughout the app. Some of the highlights include wide fader controls, large trigger buttons, RGB and CMY color pickers, XY controls with accelerometer support, and easy touch-based channel assignment. User's have the choice of working with groups or individual tracks when creating looks, giving you ultimate flexibility in how to set up your workspace.

Luminair offers an innovative way of assigning pictures and images as a visual reference for the designer's cues. Users can use the device's built-in photo library, or Luminair's internal web server to assign images. A CoverFlow view makes it easy for users to browse and trigger cues in a completely visual manner.


Stacks of fun
Luminair offers continuous automated show playback with Stacks, which is a cue-list playback system. These playback capabilities have been designed to make it very easy to put together shows for a wide variety of uses, in a really quick and familiar manner.

Cues are added to a stack, and each have their own individual hold and fade time. Users can work with multiple stacks, apply batch timing to individual stacks, and choose one of five modes for playing back cues. Creating looks and playing back shows is as simple a creating an iTunes playlist.
