4K-systemkontroller til nem mapping og kontrol

P3-275 System Controller

The Martin P3-275 System Controller supports video input up to DCI 4K (4096x2160) and is intended for bigger shows spanning larger stages with higher fixture quantities. It is also ideal for bridges and large buildings that typically need a larger workspace. This Controller allows Martin fixtures to be easily controlled from a lighting desk, video source or a mix of both. They integrate with third-party software by importing and exporting industry-standard MVR files, eliminating duplicate actions and enabling designs to be easily shared.

Uniquely creative looks can be created for each application, whether using video content, traditional DMX controls, Art-Net / sACN PixelMapping, or a mix of control methods.

The entire system is fully synchronized, ensuring all elements work cohesively without visible latency. They support DCI 4K video input over HDMI and NDI inputs, and output up to 1,040,000 pixels to up to 6,000 fixtures. Real-time previews show you how DMX controls and video will be rendered on the fixtures.

The Martin P3-275 System Controller also outputs the P3 Visualizer Protocol, enabling real-time (3D) visualization by compatible third-party (3D) visualizers. Greatly improving pre-programming workflows.

  • MIX DMX AND VIDEO CONTROL

    Gives the lighting designer the freedom to create unique looks by entering parameters or by sending content to fixtures to ultimately create the ideal look that the designer envisions.

  • TIME-SAVING MVR INTEGRATION

    Mapping and patches can be exported to third-party lighting consoles, visualizers and CAD programs. There is no need to re-create a system repeatedly using different software packages.

  • Third-Party 3D Visualizer Protocol

    Enables seamless integration with third-party 3D visualization software to empower stunning 3D visualization within the P3 environment—perfect for tours, performances, and any professional lighting needs.

  • REMOTE ADDRESSING AND SETTING

    Eliminates the need to physically access fixtures to address and configure each one locally via the display.

  • REAL-TIME MONITORING

    Offers a complete view of your entire system to diagnose any issues.

  • SYSTEM-WIDE SYNCHRONIZATION

    Deliver perfect performance across the entire system, without visible lag and latency issues.

  • LIVE PREVIEW

    Visualize results during pre-programming without connecting actual fixtures.
