Captivate Version 2

Visual & lighting synth

Live DMX, visuals, and laser control synchronized to music — play your show like an instrument.

What it does

One desk for light, laser, and picture

Configure fixtures once. Scenes stay portable when you add gear or change venues — hundreds of DMX channels collapse into a handful of intuitive parameters.

Live DMX lighting

Fixture library (QLC+, Open Fixture Library, Captivate community), multi-universe USB and Art-Net, spatial layout, and portable scenes.

Synth-style control

LFOs, modulation matrix, pads, randomizers, plus MIDI and keyboard mapping so you can perform the light show live.

Synced visuals

Built-in visualizers and effects — including MilkDrop-style projectM — tied to the active light scene and music energy.

Music sync

Ableton Link, tap tempo, audio input, beat clock, and Advanced Music Energy to drive scenes with the track.

Lasers, WLED & FX

Helios USB and Pangolin FB4 via BEYOND, LED strip layouts, atmospherics, movers with calibration and floor bounds.

Show-ready UI

Multi-window mixer, laser, 3D lighting preview, and visualizer — plus optional LAN remote control from a browser.

How it feels

Made for musicians, VJs, and lighting operators

Lighting software often locks you into rigid cue lists. Captivate keeps everything in sync and lets you take as much live control as you want.

Modulation over cue stacks Automate brightness, color, and movers with familiar synth tools — or grab the pads mid-song.
Lighting and visuals together Visual layers listen to the active light scene so picture and DMX move as one show.
Portable across venues Patch fixtures once; scenes keep working when the rig changes.
