Product description

Chroma-Q Vista 256-Channel DMX License Dongle.


The Chroma-Q Vista 256-Channel DMX License Dongle is a compact USB device that unlocks 256 DMX channels within the Vista by Chroma-Q lighting control software, enabling precise control of DMX512-compatible lighting fixtures and effects for theatrical, concert, and architectural applications. Designed for small to mid-sized productions, this dongle transforms a Mac or Windows computer into a powerful lighting controller, ideal for managing fixtures like the Martin Atomic 3000, Elation Platinum Beam 5R Pro, or Antari AF-3X Fan, as well as dimmers like the Leprecon ULD-340. Its plug-and-play functionality, stackable channel licensing, and compatibility with the intuitive Vista 3 software make it a versatile, cost-effective solution for standalone control or as a tracking backup for Vista consoles (e.g., Vista EX or M1). 

  • Functionality: Enables output of 256 DMX channels (one-half universe) through Vista 3 software, controlling lighting fixtures, dimmers, or effects via a USB-to-DMX adapter (sold separately, e.g., Enttec DMX USB Pro). 
  • Channel Capacity: 256 DMX channels, suitable for small to mid-sized shows, with the ability to stack multiple dongles (e.g., combining with a 512-channel dongle for 768 channels). 
  • Software Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Vista 3 software (free download for Mac or Windows), offering a graphical timeline-based interface for programming cues, effects, and show control. 
  • Operation Modes: 
    • Standalone Control: Converts a computer into a primary lighting controller for small productions, ideal for schools, churches, or rental houses. 
    • Tracking Backup: Provides redundancy for Vista consoles, ensuring show continuity in case of primary controller failure.
  • Setup: Plug-and-play USB connection, with no additional drivers required. First-generation and newer dongles are fully compatible with Vista 3 software. 
  • Applications: Perfect for theaters, concerts, events, and architectural installations requiring flexible, software-based DMX control for fixtures or effects. 
  • Construction: Compact, durable USB dongle designed for portability and reliability in professional stage environments. 
  • Integration: Pairs with wireless DMX systems like the Doug Fleenor Design Marconi TX/LV for cable-free control, enhancing setup flexibility in venues with complex rigging.
