It offers unparalleled realism and speed, allowing you to preview DMX-controlled objects, lasers, pyrotechnics, and other effects in a photorealistic virtual environment.
In addition to its stunning visuals, L8 features a powerful built-in DMX software lighting control sequencer, which enables you to design, program, and run shows all in one platform. With the ability to create and save scenes, tracks, groups, and shows, and trigger them with a keyboard or external MIDI console, L8 is a must-have tool for any lighting professional looking to take their stage design to the next level.
