Lighting control for stages, spaces and everyday life
Bring DMX fixtures and compatible smart lights into one control system. Build lighting scenes, use Visual Control, and explore AI music-reactive shows for concerts, theaters, gyms, churches, DJs, hospitality and smart homes.
Planning a large theater or professional concert rig? Review fixture compatibility, universes, cue requirements and timing with us, then validate the complete workflow. Explore capabilities and find your starting point.
Homebridge and Home Assistant
Connect compatible smart lights through Homebridge or Home Assistant alongside your DMX fixtures. The experimental Home Assistant companion on Pi / Ubuntu supports compatible Govee LAN and Matter lights. On/off, brightness, RGB and color-temperature controls depend on the device and integration. Validate your exact devices during the trial.
New: control your lights from anywhere
Your DMX Smart Link HUB is your lighting console, and now it goes wherever you go. With built-in cloud access, the DMX Smart Link app runs your whole setup from anywhere in the world over the internet: recall scenes, start light shows, and control your DMX fixtures and your smart lights, all from one place. Set the room from home before a service, or adjust it from the back of the venue. Homebridge and Home Assistant open from the app too, and Visual Control shows your lights live while you are away.
- Private by design: each phone has its own key, everything between the phone and the HUB is end-to-end encrypted, and the app connects straight to your HUB whenever the network allows.
- You decide who gets in: add phones as Admin or Operator with a one-time code or QR code from the HUB's Remote Access tab, and remove a phone at any time.
- Philips Hue live shows (beta): stream real-time effects to the lights in a Hue entertainment area.
Remote access comes with DMX Smart Link 2026.10.08.0435 and later with an active licence: update the HUB from its dashboard. The HUB needs an internet connection. Get the DMX Smart Link app for iPhone on the App Store; the Android app is in early access: contact us to join. Back up and test your rig before an event. Read the release notes.
Best for venues and permanent installs that need hardware-timed DMX output: includes a pro-grade, buffered and hardware-timed USB-DMX interface for buffered control of compatible fixtures. DMX output only.
New (September 2026): Stream Deck and YoloDeck support.
Plug an Elgato Stream Deck or YoloLiv YoloDeck into the HUB and every saved scene becomes a key. Prefer the deck at the desk and the HUB in a rack? Plug the deck into your Mac or Windows PC, run the DMXSmartLink Stream Deck app, and it drives the HUB over the network.
Also new: supports local lighting workflows; cloud services and some integrations still need internet access, local Govee control through Home Assistant with response times that depend on the devices and network, Matter devices, a touch kiosk mode on a Pi with a screen, and OSC plus a control API for QLab, TouchOSC and Companion.

* Every edition is a full DMX console with Art-Net input/output and sACN input. The Network Edition drives stage lights through any Art-Net node or Art-Net-to-DMX bridge box you already have. To send DMX straight out of a cable, add a USB DMX interface (sold separately) or pick an Output Kit, which already includes one.
Pro-grade DMX output, ready the moment you plug in. Built around the trusted ENTTEC DMX USB Pro, this kit drives your professional DMX fixtures and your smart lights together — the interface is already recognized, and nothing locks you in.
Professional-grade DMX output with rock-solid timing and reliability.
The DMX Smart Link HUB – Pro Output Kit pairs the Smart Link platform with the ENTTEC DMX USB Pro for dependable, low-latency DMX output. Ideal for venues, churches, and production environments where stability matters.
⚠️ Important Note
This kit provides DMX OUTPUT only using the ENTTEC DMX USB Pro.
The ENTTEC DMX USB Pro supports input or output per device, but not both simultaneously.
👉 For simultaneous DMX input + output, see the Pro Dual I/O Kit.
