Blackout Lighting Console & Cinelex Skycast-C

Blackout Lighting Console has put out a video showing how the Cinelex Skycast-C works with the Blackout.

Cinelex’s SKYCAST wireless DMX, which was announced back in June, is a tiny-sized CRMX TX that can be used with based lighting apps such as Blackout, Luminair, Madrix, and others. It can seamlessly convert an Art-Net signal to CRMX wireless DMX.

It is available in two versions SKYCAST-A (USB-A) and SKYCAST-C (iPad/ iPhone). You simply connect the SKYCAST to a device, sync it a light fixture that has internal CRMX wireless DMX or Cinelex SKYNOIDE attached, open your preferred app or the SKYCAST’S built-in web browser and you get wireless DMX control.

Both versions have an operating range of up to 100m / 330′.
