Sidus Link Pro 2.4.2 introduces Enhanced Pixel Tools: more flexible control across multiple pixelated fixtures, faster pixel selection, and gradient fills. Pixel control is available in the Pro plan for $10/month (because pixel control is DMX only), with MAX adding support for 4 universes of control.

Sidus Link Pro 2.1 introduces a new Free plan, giving all users free access to Bluetooth control of any Aputure and amaran light! Access our full library of Light Modes, FX, Quickshots, Magic Program Go and Pro, Magic Infinity FX, and Diagram Master in the Sidus Link Pro Free plan on iPad.

No longer a button presser, now a data manager: turning creative requests into lighting commands.

Sidus Link Pro 2.3 introduces 3D Visualizer, a 3D environment for planning, previewing, and refining your lighting setup before stepping on set. Build your scene with lights, characters, and props, configure DMX settings, and design and preview cues in advance, then carry those decisions directly into production. 3D Visualizer is available in the Pro plan for $10/month, with MAX adding support for 4 universes of control.

Sidus Link Pro 2.2 introduces Layout View, a visual grid that lets you organize fixtures to match your real-world set, giving all Sidus Link Pro users faster and more intuitive light organization, selection, control, and realtime visual preview of your lighting changes. In Pro and MAX, Layout View expands to support realtime visual preview during cue playback and pixel control directly in layout.

Sidus Link Pro 2.4 introduces Action Panel, a dedicated full-screen view that turns your cues and Quickshots into big, customizable “Go” buttons for fast, confident execution. With an optional passcode lock, Action Panel makes it easy to hand control to a client, operator, or venue team. Action Panel is available in the Pro plan for $10/month, with MAX adding support for 4 universes of control. Plus, Sidus Link Pro is now available on Mac!

Pinkbox Studios’ co-founders share how they upgraded the 30' prelit cyclorama at their small production studio in Los Angeles with NOVA II 1x1s and a Sidus One. The new setup delivered better light quality and control, and saved $10,000.
