MADRIX RADAR is a commercial software product that requires a valid license in order to be able to fully use it.
Please learn more below.
MADRIX RADAR is an independent software that allows you to choose compatible RDM nodes.
You gain the enormous advantage with MADRIX RDM nodes of running a fully integrated system. Our MADRIX hardware processes RDM data packages in a way that does not result in interference with DMX data packages during full and live operation, which could lead to visual flickering or other signal interruptions. MADRIX interfaces manage these data streams highly efficiently and intelligently.
