Denmark - Martin's popular Maxxyz lighting controller is now available in a PC-based version. This new computer-based version of the Maxxyz console is an off-line and online editing tool that gives full Maxxyz functionality from the ease and convenience of a PC or laptop, say Martin.

Maxxyz PC can be used for off-line programming and can be linked to Martin's Universal DMX interface device or Ether2DMX Router for direct control of fixtures. Featuring dongle-protected software without the need for expensive hardware, it is the ideal programming platform for a large variety of shows.

Maxxyz PC is the most scalable PC-based lighting software in the industry. The software is free of charge. However, to output DMX, a USB license dongle and a DMX interface device are needed. The USB interface device outputs 2 universes or uses ArtNet via the PC's Ethernet port.

Maxxyz PC is an attractive add-on for Maxxyz users and can be installed on a PC or laptop running Windows XP OS. Also, Maxxyz PC can be used in conjunction with the Maxxyz Wing, or as a backup to the Maxxyz console.
