Luminair

would happily have paid for the new version 4, but will not for a subscription.

Es ist eine wirklich gute App, aber leider nich flexibel. Wäre schön wenn ich ein Lauflicht einstellen könnte und dann zum Beispiel Movingheads separat dazunehmen könnte oder Movinghead Bewegung einstellen und die Farben, Gobos oder Prismen ändern könnte... Hier wäre ein multicue angepasst dann würde die App keine Wünsche offen lassen. Im Livebetrieb schwierig zu händeln ... Ein bisschen mehr freie Hand wäre schön...

Ein zusätzliches Ärgernis ist, dass man beim Start immer die Projekte aus der Cloud laden muss - die Kinder des Internet haben immer guten Zugang... Eigentlich eine Super App, aber wenn man von der Vorgängerversion kommt, dann ist man schon mal frustriert, dass das Übertragen der vorigen Sessions nicht klappt. Zwei mal Zahlen bei einer App, die für iPad über 100 gekostet hat, muss man sich schon überlegen. Es gibt halt keine Konkurrenz. Wo dringender Handlungsbedarf ist, ist bei der Bedienung, User Schnittstelle ist nicht immer verständlich und ergonomisch. Auch das Speichern von Sessions macht die App eigenwillig. Anderes dann sehr schön, kritisches fällt aber auf. Die App wird aber für Events eingesetzt, die stressvoll sind, da muss die Bedienung einfach und stabil sein.

Luminair ist ein super DMX Mischpult das keine Wünsche offen lässt. Ideal auch für kleine Bands die das Licht selber von der Bühne steuern wollen. In Verbindung mit dem SetListMaker App und/oder einem Midi Fußpedal steht einer professioneller Lichtshow nichts mehr im Weg. Und das überall und ohne lästiges Kabel. Kann es nur weiter empfehlen.

I’ve had Luminair on my iPad for at least 5 years now. It’s come a long way in that time, but there are still some fundamental problems with it that, for me, make it unusable. I already bring one laptop to my gigs to run my VSTs on an was looking to avoid bringing a second to run lights since I have my iPad on the gigs as well, running TouchOSC to control my VSTs. But Luminair is not up to the challenge, forcing me back to bringing two MacBooks if I want to run keys and lights. The biggest issue is with RTP MIDI. I cannot make it work with Luminair. If I have a single subnet with Luminair, my DMX controllers and my RTP MIDI setup, Luminair disables network access entirely or even crashes sometimes. This is on an M1 iPad running the latest version of iOS and Luminair. I also have a license for LightKrey on a MacBook. Lightkey works without issue with sACN/ArtNet and RTP MIDI. Luminair is just not stable with RTP MIDI. My light show requires me to have certain sequences, scenes triggered via MIDI and since Luminair disconnects network or outright refuses to allow me to assign RTP MIDI ports it effectively renders it useless for my needs. Additionally, the fixture profiles for certain fixture don’t seem to work or at least be as intuitively easy to use as the same fixture profiles in LightKey. Until this is resolved, I am back on LightKey and I have discontinued my Luminair Pro monthly renewal fee. If they ever fix these, I’ll consider revisiting the product, but in the meantime I cannot recommend or use this product.

When turning phone to landscape, it either does not go all or the screen jumbles up a freezes. Fix?

Ok so what doesnt have a bug or two especially a new program. Even ms and apple have problems with new os or even updates that crash systems, it happens. BUT just try to get help or any support from them when u find an issue. Since v3 of luminair I bought and now subscribe to the best supported lighting program out - imho. I was extremely new with lighting and made plenty of mistakes totally my fault but the support guys ALWAYS responded quickly and resolved every issue i’ve had. Good luck finding a team as good as these guys anywhere. Now that i can load this on my macbook pro and use dmx with usb I feel the program has truly continued to expand to customers wants and needs. I am a permanent Fan and customer. Have tried many lighting programs and always come back here. So will be staying. Thanks guys for creating and maintaining an excellent platform for lighting control.

Today I spent 5 hours editing new devices/scenes for the new lighting hardware. Five hours of tedious repetitive hand patching of scenes later (due to an apparent lack of “apply this to all” kind of functionality), it was done and perfect. One reboot later, and Luminair erased everything. I need to step away now or it’s going to get ugly.

Our light flash at every fade until they are into next cue. I reached out for help 2 weeks ago and nothing,

The app works good on macbook and iphone and feels polished. The icloud integration is great and everything is quick. The user guide is well written, and their tech support is responsive. Price is steep, but controlling DMX scenes from my phone is pure magic
