The Spectralite Node.
A network LED controller that drives eight parallel addressable strips from Art-Net or sACN over Ethernet. Spectralite discovers it, authenticates it, and configures it over the network. No DMX pass-through to wire, no separate pixel controller to program.
Eight strips, driven over the network.
The Node receives Art-Net or sACN over Ethernet and drives up to eight parallel WS2812B-compatible LED strips directly. Switch protocols live. It joins the network by DHCP, link-local AutoIP, or a static IP you set, and it uses the strips themselves as a boot display so you can read its state before any software is involved.
- Eight parallel WS2812B-compatible strip outputs
- Default 144 LEDs per strip, configurable up to 1000
- RGB or RGBW strips, with selectable byte ordering
- Ethernet: DHCP, link-local AutoIP fallback, or static IP
- Art-Net 4 input on UDP port 6454
- sACN (E1.31) input over multicast UDP port 5568, live-switchable with Art-Net
- Built on a Teensy 4.1
Discovered, authenticated, and set up in seconds.
Power the Node and it appears in the Spectralite Controllers panel within a few seconds. Set its name, start universe, strip length, and color order from there. Configuration and firmware travel over the network: over-the-air config updates and signed firmware, so a rig of Nodes is managed from one screen.
Universes above your cap, unlocked by hardware.
When an authenticated Spectralite Node drives them, universes above your license cap unlock. The Node is both the fastest way to get pixels lit from Spectralite and a direct way to grow a rig beyond your tier's universe count.
Professional lighting control that speaks every standard, runs on your Mac, and costs what it says on the page.
No dongle. No quote. No lock-in.
