About the App
Light Captain – DMX Controller puts practical lighting control in your hands—whether you’re running a backyard party, a club rig, or a full-on stage show. It’s approachable for beginners but deep enough for seasoned techs who want precise programming. Built by Steinigke Showtechnic GmbH in the Productivity genre, it offers a clean layout, fast navigation, and the tools you need to handle real-world DMX setups.
