Where is X1 used?
Visual power that travels with you
Whether you're lighting up a nightclub, building a festival set, or mixing visuals live from stage, X1 gives you the tools to design and control your entire show from your laptop, wherever the gig takes you.
Drop in real-time content from Notch or TouchDesigner, trigger effects from MIDI, DMX or OSC devices, busk live shows with our Sockpuppet workflow for lighting consoles, and keep everything locked to the beat.
Plus, our upcoming TCNet implementation will improve transport control from Pioneer CDJs and mixers when programming visuals for DJs.

One tool for any project
From theatre to corporate events, X1 lets you previsualise every cue, map content to any screen, and trigger your show on a timeline, all from your own workstation.
X1 gives you the same real-time control and precision on smaller-scale live shows without the need for a full media server rack that you’d expect on the arena shows.
Enjoy complete deployment flexibility by seamlessly making edits to your existing show file when travelling between shows. Scale video outputs up or down according to the screen requirements of the venue, without the need for re-programming.

Design spaces that captivate
From projection-mapped art to LED façades, X1 gives you full control over complex geometry, all from a single 4K output.
With advanced mapping tools, true 3D visualisation and pixel-accurate playback, you can design, pitch and deliver immersive installations that stand out, all from the same tool, built to support long-running and evolving experiences.
