DMX Setup 2025

Our primary lighting controller is a ADJ / Wolfmix WMX1.

It can control 1 universe of DMX512 via DMX cables. (You can pay extra to unlock a second universe)

Ask Joel for the password to the online account on Nicolaudie Connect which is a cloud service that lets you sync and save projects. Only 6 projects can be saved on the controller, but you can store more on the cloud. There is a Mac app called WTools that lets you move projects between the cloud and the controller:
