Maestro DMX Quick Review - NEW A.I. Light Show Box 

That's what I was waiting for...a little demo, perhaps. No worries, I just got a ship notice - will test next week!

He just made sure I'm not purchasing this one. Talking about nothing.

@@DJQUAD1000 dont say that just cause he didnt do any display of the unit . it works i havent got mine yet still shipping over here but i have seen lots of working demos now of the unit

Working footage can be seen from maestro themselves. They didn’t show the back end side of how to patch and customize your light show. That was the real question for many kickstarter backers and others who purchased this after Maestros marketing campaign. Lights will run their cues, it’s the setup and execution part that people don’t take in consideration when buying a product. It’s not just a plug and play unit. Thanks for watching

Thank you for saving me 10 minutes!

What was your wait time? Did you preorder?

Did yours finally come in? What are your thoughts???

Glad you liked it!

Same. I should have purchased SS originally but didn’t have the cash. If this works well I’ll drop SS but might just buy the black Friday deal and keep SS. We’ll see next week when mine comes.

From the looks, I can see the promoting of “plug and play” but I do like that you can do more customization to the lights and show. I would say easier than SS just with my fiddling around with it, without Maestro’s videos on how to’s

Thanks for the watch

Thanks for the watch!

I agree with you. Still some fiddling around to do. That’s why I made this video in the first shipments that maestro dmx sent out (I was a kickstarter backer) and wanted people to know that it’s not all plug in play. There are still inputs and settings you still need to achieve

Thanks for the watch

I unfortunately don’t. I was a kickstarter backer and that was like last year or maybe even two years ago now. But I know that was when they were developing and producing the product. I’m sure it’s probably a couple weeks to order to then get in hands

A great channel is stage lighting, David does a good job showing how it all works or the Maestro DMX channel will probably have some videos on how to do it. I wanted to showcase the platform and how it’s not all about plug and play.

VERY far away from that

Not close at all

Great question for the Maestro team! I unfortunately don’t have that answer

Probably but you’ll need to build the profile unless they have similar dmx attributes.

You can. Best to address each par light and input that into the program so that you have a better looking light show

🤷‍♂️ talk to the owners of the product about that!

And is the going to tell me it’s plug and play or you have to input information and programming to get it to work. I’ll stick to Sound Switch 1000% better

You could limit the movement on Chauvet DJ fixtures on the actual fixtures but I would have to see if that feature exists

@Sticksentertainment- Sorry you feel that way. Back story- Yes I am a kickstarter backer but was not compensated to make or say anything about this product. I made this to show end users what you are looking at getting into. Not every tool out there needs to be purchased but some more than others help make the job easier used in the right show. The reason you are seeing ONLY backers posting is because Maestro did one initial run of production and then did a presale once it was officially hitting the market. "Us" backers waited awhile for this to get developed. While I own a Maestro DMX box, I also have the wolf mix, ILS command, Showxpress, Chamsys MQ70 & an Onyx NX4 console, each tool for different applications. The purpose of my video was to show the backend side of how this program works because I felt the company didn't show a lot of information about this. Thanks for watching!

@@lightinginventory Thank you for the video. Maybe you can help me out, out of all the devices, which one would you recommend if someone wants the simplest way of achieving this: 1) sound to light 2) custom color palette for different fixtures 3) limiting area of movement of the moving heads?

Totally get what your saying. So here is how I understand it… connect a computer to maestros network protocol which will then get you to the BTS look to allow you to patch fixtures, decide how you want to run your lights and then you can reconnect to your internet/hotspot to run Tidal. Pretty much getting on their own network allows you to patch everything and set things up for your light show, so the program knows what fixtures are there and how many. I haven’t tried this yet but I’ve thought about having my iPad connected to maestros network to have some extra controls just in case. Mind you I’m coming from a background that I usually have some type of hardware controller near by to control my lights. Thanks for the watch!

Maestro has plenty of videos of them showing the lights going with the box. My intent was to show what the back end side of the program was and show that it’s not a true plug in play system and it gives you the ability to patch and customize some parameters of the program. Thanks for the watch.

@@lightinginventory well at least paste some video links to those videos, people like to see the lights in action not just how you fiddle with the GUI

Yup! There is an option under the fixture profile tab to do just that

@@lightinginventory sweet! Ive been looking at getting one for my band but wanted to see how the first batch went before i ordered 1.

Sadly yes. So only one universe of DMX

@@lightinginventory Should be at least two to make split runs easier

@@raggaroaringsound I 100% agree with you. Or having a second universe of dmx

Glad to help. It’s the reality of the device

Probably. You'll need to look into the fixture library to see if they have it listed.

Kind of hoping for an exact answer. Dont want to purchase it and then its not have the option. I cant stand using IOS and my lights only seem to work with IOS. I need to find another way around it @@lightinginventory
