Cameo CONTROL 54 – Professional DMX 512 Controller

The Cameo CONTROL 54 is an advanced yet highly intuitive DMX controller that enables full control over professional stage lighting equipment. The device operates with the USITT DMX 512 protocol, offering up to 54 control channels. Thanks to its compact housing and versatile features, this controller is the ideal solution for DJs, lighting technicians, and owners of clubs, bars, and foyers.

Product Features

The controller is equipped with 22 control buttons and 6 channel faders, allowing for precise mixing of color proportions. Available functions include automatic mode (Auto Mode), blackout, smooth color fades (color fade), color jumps (color jump), color macros, manual control (Manual Control), sound control (Music Control) with microphone sensitivity adjustment, and strobe effects. All parameters are displayed on a clear LC display.

Thanks to the LC display, the operator has constant insight into the currently selected function and its parameters. This facilitates quick changes and eliminates the risk of errors during dynamic performances.

Full Control Over Stage Lighting

With 54 DMX channels, you can control up to 9 spotlights or groups of spotlights, offering vast possibilities for light design. Each of the 9 color presets can be assigned to a specific spotlight, significantly speeding up the configuration process. The LC display continuously shows the current function and its parameters, eliminating guesswork and allowing for precise tuning of effects. Additionally, the controller features an input for sound control, which can be calibrated using the microphone sensitivity knob to perfectly match the light response to the music volume in the room.

The Cameo CONTROL 54 was designed with maximum operational comfort in mind. Thanks to 9 color presets, whose selection buttons also serve to select spotlights, you can switch instantly between programmed scenes. The six faders allow independent control of red, green, blue, white, amber, and UV color proportions. The faders are smooth and precise, allowing for subtle changes in light intensity, and their range is perfectly suited for working with LED diodes. The buttons are backlit, facilitating work in dark environments.

This makes it a universal tool for controlling RGB, RGBW, RGBWA, and RGBWA+UV color-mixing fixtures, such as popular LED bars and LED pairs from the Cameo FLAT PAR PRO and FLAT PAR 1 series. The automatic mode allows for programming sequences that play back without operator intervention, while the sound control mode with adjustable microphone sensitivity is ideal for parties where lighting reacts to the music rhythm. The blackout function allows for the immediate extinguishing of all spotlights, and the strobe adds dynamic effects. The device can be powered by either the included 9-12V DC power adapter or a 9V battery, ensuring full mobility and independence from power sources in hard-to-reach locations.

Whether you are a beginner lighting technician or an experienced professional, the CONTROL 54 controller offers an intuitive interface that minimizes setup time. Thanks to the ability to save scenes in automatic mode, you can focus on other aspects of production while the lighting works independently. The sound control function automatically synchronizes lights with music, which is particularly valued in clubs and during smaller events.
