What DMX console should I use for controlling laser lights and moving heads together?

Update Time:2026/9/24

Direct answerUse a console with enough channels and protocol support for the whole rig: 4096 to 6144 channels for large productions, or 512 channels for mid-size venues.

Console Options

ConsolePositioningKey specifications
Tiger DMX ConsoleProfessional and large productionsTitan OS, 15.6 inch touchscreen, 4096/6144 channels, Wi-Fi, Art-Net, MIDI sync and UPS protection
Sunshine 512 ConsoleEntry to mid-level512 channels, 2 isolated outputs, 1600 chase steps, 48 scenes, 16-bit control, LCD display and music trigger

How to Size the Console

  • Count total channels: each moving head uses about 15 to 25 channels and each laser about 8 to 16 channels
  • Confirm protocol support such as Art-Net for Ethernet-based control of larger rigs
  • Check for isolated outputs to prevent signal interference and protect against electrical faults
  • Confirm backup power, since UPS protection avoids show interruption during power fluctuations
  • Pair with Pangolin Beyond and FB4 controllers when the show includes laser programming

Both consoles ship with universal templates pre-installed for seamless connection with global performance systems.
