Ultimate LED Control
MADRIX 5 includes all the groundbreaking features of MADRIX 1, 2, and 3. Plus so much more. This is the overview over the main new features of MADRIX 5. Our team has worked really hard and continues to do so in order to implement features many of you have been asking for. We hope you like it.
All New
A New Effect Category
TRI Effects will be based on existing MADRIX Effects. On top, you can trigger them manually using DMX-IN or MIDI. This will add a whole new level of interaction.
A New Look And Feel
The user interface will be completely overhauled with helpful additions and useful reductions. Everything will be easier to read and easier to use.
Audio Playback Of Videos
The media server capabilities will make a big leap. The audio track of videos can be put out directly. VJing will be more creative than ever.
Two Themes
Two fresh new GUI color schemes will allow you to work better in different environments. Choose freely between the dark theme and the light theme.
Unprecedented Performance
64-Bit Support
Support for 64-bit computing will not only provide access to more memory but also a performance boost for any existing system right out of the box.
Faster GUI
The graphical user interface will react even faster. The improved speed is especially noticeable when changing between MADRIX Effects extremely quickly.
You Are in Control
New Effect
SCE Rotating Shapes will be another great and versatile addition to the large variety of built-in effects that are generated live for you.
New FX Filters
The new Brightness Graph, Color Swap, and Swap Transformation filters will include many new ways to quickly modify your visuals even further.
Patch Editor Improvements
CSV Fixture List Import
Importing CSV files will quickly generate complex patch layouts based on data of third-party software, such as visualizers or lighting design tools.
Background Image
You will be able to load a background image into the Patch Editor and adapt it to your needs in order to help with the manual placement of fixtures.
Fixture List Printing And Export
The list of fixtures and their configuration can now be sent directly to a printer or exported as compact HTML list for better organization during set up.
Practical Extras
Many more details will be improved, such as user-defined fixture highlight and modes, quick adaptation to the mapped area and color depth in use, and more.
