Simple and easy to use
Jayson E 02.01.2020
I got this controller as an item to rent out when someone only wants basic control instead of a PC wing solution. Perfect for par cans, strobe lights, fog FX, anything that is just a nice static piece. Faders move smoothly and the rubber feet on the bottom keep it in place. I bought a Pelican 1200 case to transport it safely. It cost more than the controller itself!

The only thing I don't like is the power delivery. I really wish they would have put an IEC port on the back of it and put the 120-240v to 9v transformer inside the unit instead of having a wall wart adapter. Having to keep track of that is much more annoying than using one of the hundreds of IECs I have laying around. That being said, I knew this from the pictures before buying, so I'm not upset.

The battery is a little bit of a pain to get to, but I really only put it in there for emergency situations. I plan to use the power adapter whenever possible.

All-in-all, I got exactly what I expected and it works flawlessly! Will probably purchase the 12-channel version down the road.

Safe for young operators
Warren J. 19.11.2013
I have now purchased 3 of these little controllers, so that in itself is a high recommendation.
I gave one of these to the local primary school to operate a series of LED light panels. Even the children (aged 5 to 11) found it easy to use and extremely safe. I like the fact that the unit contains its own power supply (battery) so no powerpoint and plug required near the operator. Note though that an external power adaptor is supplied should you prefer. The battery lasts a long time but I'm a little dissapointed that to change the battery the case has to be unscrewed rather than just a sliding compartment door, but again this adds to the safety when operated by minors.
All the controls moved fluidly and the master control is a boon. They feels sturdy and all are still working perfectly after a number of years use. I prefer to use a number of these rather than a more complicated lighting desk.

it's plenty for that buck
Jean-Claude Van Damme 21.05.2021
it just works, without hassle. I have a very modest setup: a dance school hall with six spots aiming at the ceiling for ambient lighting. I needed a very simple way to dim them individually, that any dance teacher could understand in a second, and that product is exactly it.

I broke a slider's cap by dropping it from a table to the ground, which is not surprising and didn't affect its functionality, but that is why I'm only giving it 4/5 stars for quality. Maybe that's a little harsh though.

Excellent product
JulesGr 01.05.2020
I am using this product to control the lighting in my recording studio paired up with a Starville DDS-405 DMX Dimmer & Switcher; it works fantastically! The setting up could not have been easier - it was plug and play, and ever since I have had no problems with the functioning of my lighting system. The product is very intuitive to use, I didn't even need to look at a manual to get it up and running. The build quality is excellent - it seems to be very sturdy and would require a significant amount of force to damage in any way. The faders themselves are very smooth and responsive and feel great when used. This product has been perfect since purchase. I highly recommend!

A basic but good controller
Pete MacG 19.05.2017
It's fairly basic but that's all I need - I'm using it mainly to mix the RGB on led lights, and to dim/raise the lights - so it's easy to use for that. It saves you having to play around with dip switches on the lights before every gig. Anything more complicated would be beyond me!
It seems solid enough, and it's a good price so I can recommend this as a usefully piece of kit.

A very basic, DJ proof controller
Francis.wr 20.06.2013
Great to give to a DJ to operate the lighting, can be used by even the simplest of humans.
Desk is well built and has lasted quite well being thrown in and out of clubs on a regular basis, as well as installed.

It would be nice if it had wall mounting capabilties, and very annoying having a euro transformer on it, would be nice to have the UK option.

Tiny but Mighty
Gordon T. 30.03.2014
This unit does what it should , it dims ! It doesn't change the world but it makes it a slightly less annoying place . If you want bells and whistles pay more money if you want functional this is perfect !
