The Wolfmix W1 is a compact DMX performance controller that can be operated standalone. The DMX controller is designed for creating light shows on the fly without a computer. The W1 is Wolfmix's first controller and is specifically designed for creating light shows on the fly without a computer. With the Wolfmix W1 you have up to 4 DMX universes.
The Hardware
A very special attention was put on the Hardware, because every performer should be satisfied with the device. The W1 has a powerful processor built in, so with the W1 is also ready in 2 seconds and the show can start. The controller is equipped with a total of 37 silicone buttons, which are color coded. These silicone buttons can be used to set a variety of things. The standalone also has a 4.3" touchscreen with tinted and offers immediate access to the most important FX effects and functions such as the pan/tilt grid. The 4 encoder pots below the display can also be used to adjust various settings such as strobe speed.
Simple control
On the fly is the big theme with the Wolfmix W1. The operation of the effects and FX settings are very intuitive and can be changed very quickly. Whether via the silicone buttons, the touch screen or the pots. It can be eg. easily adjust the color of a spotlight. There is also a color button, either the color can be changed via the silicone buttons or via the touch screen. What is also special, is the sound input via 3.5 jack. So the light show can be synchronized automatically to the music. In addition, the Wolfmix W1 has a built-in microphone. But there is also the possibility to use the BPM-Sync with Ableton Link and OS2L.
Fixture Library
The fixture library is almost as important as the fixture itself. With the free WTOOLS software, you can access a database of over 150,000 fixtures. If your fixture or moving head is not in the database, you can easily create a fixture with the W1.
Extension
If one Wolfmix W1 is not enough, it is possible to connect two W1s via 5pin-5pin WLINK cables (sold separately). This allows up to 8 groups to be controlled side by side. Alternatively, the WLINK socket can be used to connect a DMX controller like a traditional DMX fader board. This allows DMX input channels to be mapped to group dimmers or directly to output channels (chargeable update).
