Particularly useful when you only use standard looks all of the time, Preset Controllers can make lighting easy for children’s or youth rooms.
For example, the Doug Fleenor Designs Preset 10 Controller is a super simple way to give someone 10 preset lighting looks to choose from. The most basic of DMX controllers, a Preset Controller, simply allows you to create a certain number of preset looks with another lighting controller and save them to preset buttons on the controller. Whatever your lighting control needs, there is an option that will make sense for you. Lighting controllers come in all shapes, sizes, and budgets-from simple push button preset controllers to full blown moving light controllers that can handle dozens of DMX 512 universes.
In this article, Duke DeJong explores some different lighting controller options and some questions to help you figure out what you need.
