DIN-rail-mountable DMX recorder + smart light show controller
The S-PLAY MINI is a compact show recorder and playback controller that simplifies professional lighting control by integrating external hardware. Record up to 32 Static/Dynamic/Effect Cues from 4 Universes of Art-Net/sACN or one DMX Universe, or use the onboard pixel effects generator for quick gradient effects. Integrate external devices like buttons, switches, or sensors to trigger 3rd-party devices using contact closures, Art-Net, sACN, DMX, UDP, or OSC. Through the web interface, easily design up to 16 playlists by dragging and dropping Cues, Events, and Triggers, with control over fades, play counts, and intensities. Playlists can loop on power-up or be triggered externally, with overlapping playback options.

Cue: record + create effects
The S-PLAY MINI is a powerful, professional light show generation engine, featuring multiple ways of recording and creating content for your show.
Record light scenes into static/dynamic cues from external sources such as lighting software via sACN, Art-Net or from physical universes using the DMX port.
Use the internal web-based engine to generate gradient effect cues or simple light scenes by editing DMX values manually.
Playlist: design + integrate
Create playlists for DMX or pixel light shows using the intuitive timeline editor, and integrate both lighting and non-lighting equipment through multiple protocols and contact closures.
Use these components as building blocks in your playlists to initiate automation events using protocols like OSC, UDP, DMX, Art-Net, and sACN.
Moreover, you can trigger playlists in real-time using external building automation software, iPad Apps, pressure pads, motion detectors, push buttons, and various other methods.
The S-PLAY MINI's sophisticated and intuitive playlist creation tools include:
- Drag and drop cues, events and triggers into the timeline
- Adjust the duration for static cues and effects
- Fade in/out for all cues
- Control playlist intensity in real-time
- Design your show with a combination of different cues, events and triggers
- Edit, loop, prioritise and group playlists
- Play single or multiple playlists
Playback: set + forget
Use the intuitive web-based creation tool to set up multiple playlists to play back on demand. The customised user interface simplifies commissioning to make playback easier than ever, with multiple installation options to secure your device with peace of mind.
Set up multiple playlists to playback simultaneously in various ways using real–time triggers or even custom user interface for different needs. The S-PLAY MINI optimises the intricate lighting setup within finger reach so you can set and forget. It also syncs with S-PLAY LITE and S-PLAY SP1 units on the same network.
Flexible installation options
The S-PLAY MINI offers versatile installation possibilities with both DIN-rail and surface-mount options, making it adaptable to a wide range of environments. Whether you're working in a compact space or a large-scale venue, the S-PLAY MINI can seamlessly integrate into your setup.
Firmware updates, backup, restore and playlist management can be accessed easily on the web interface at the local network.
