Art-Net LED Controllers

deskontroller LITE V3 series

Art-Net Pixel Controllers

The deskontroller LITE V3 is a professional Art-Net pixel controller with 32 physical outputs, browser-based setup and compatibility with standard industry software. It receives Art-Net over Ethernet and drives addressable LED strips and pixels directly — no additional interfaces — from 32 to 192 universes in a single unit.

Designed for integrators, rental, AV, studios, architecture and professional installations where stability, repeatability and leaving the system properly documented from day one really matter.

Why choose deskontroller?

deskontroller does not sell its own software. The focus is on delivering professional Art-Net hardware that is clear to integrate, easy to document and ready to work with standard industry software.

32 physical outputs

A real advantage when you want to distribute load more intelligently, keep cabling cleaner and solve installations with better structure from a single unit.

Web-based setup

Configuration from a browser, with no awkward drivers or proprietary software just to leave an installation properly set up.

Real compatibility

Standard Art-Net workflow and support for many addressable LED chipset families, making it easier to fit into established systems.

European manufacturer

Hardware designed and manufactured with a professional approach, direct technical support and a 5-year warranty on deskontroller products.

Which deskontroller LITE V3 fits best?

The difference between models is not hardware quality, but total universe capacity, FPS headroom and how many pixels you can move from a single unit. This is the fastest way to get oriented.

Maximum fluidity

32U

32 universes — up to ~102 FPS. For compact to mid-size projects where fast response, agile chases and stronger camera-friendly playback matter most.

Balanced range

64U / 96U

64 to 96 universes — up to ~80 and ~60 FPS. The most balanced part of the range for many professional pixel mapping projects, with strong capacity and solid operating headroom.

More capacity

128U / 160U

128 to 160 universes — up to ~48 and ~38 FPS. When 96U is no longer enough and you need more zones, more LED surface or more total universes from a single unit.

Maximum coverage

192U

192 universes — up to ~30 FPS. For large façades, immersive spaces and projects where the priority is moving the highest possible number of universes and pixels from one unit.

Which deskontroller LITE V3 do I need?

32-output Art-Net controller

Why 32 physical outputs make a real difference in signal distribution, stability, wiring and commissioning.

Technical validation

Confirm model, outputs and wiring before deciding

If the project already has an approximate pixel count, universe count or physical line layout, it is worth validating how the load is distributed per output, whether the wiring will use normal mode or V1 / clock mode, and whether LED power and common GND are correctly planned.

The technical guides on deskontroller.com complement this commercial page: they help you size the project, understand the real 32-output or 16-output distribution, and review how to increase capacity later if the installation grows.

Upgradeable capacity

Start with the capacity you need today

Models from 32U to 160U can be upgraded later to a higher-capacity deskontroller LITE V3 model by upgrade key, without replacing the hardware.

You only pay the price difference between your current model and the target model, based on the current store prices. The upgrade increases the available universes and model capacity; the 32 physical outputs remain the same.

To request an upgrade key, send us a screenshot of Setup > Device info, or the unit serial number, MAC address or factory IP. The factory IP should start with 2.80.x.x.

The hardware warranty remains linked to the original purchase date of the unit.

deskontroller LITE V3 range

Every model shares the same product base: 32-output architecture, web-based setup, Art-Net compatibility and the same professional hardware approach. What changes is total capacity and the amount of operating headroom available for each type of project.

deskontroller LITE V3 32 universes Art-Net
Fastest model

deskontroller LITE V3 — 32U

The model with the most refresh-rate headroom in the range. Very strong for fast chases, camera-friendly looks and compact to mid-size projects.

  • 32 universes
  • 16,384 channels
  • Up to ~5,440 RGB pixels

deskontroller LITE V3 64 universes Art-Net
Balanced

deskontroller LITE V3 — 64U

Where this range fits best

The deskontroller LITE V3 range is built for professional projects that need a hardware base that is clear, repeatable and easy to maintain. If you want to validate the fit for your sector before comparing models, these pages explain where the range makes the most sense in real projects.

Broadcast, Studio & TV

Strong where motion fluidity, camera-friendly output and well-documented patching really matter in day-to-day operation.

Stage, Live & Touring

A solid architecture for distributing lines, keeping cabling under control and working with standard software without unnecessary complexity.

Architecture & Façade

Especially useful when the priority is covering more LED surface and distributing load more intelligently across outputs.

Integrators & Installers

A reliable foundation for projects where configuration clarity, maintenance and repeatability matter just as much as the hardware itself.

Once the sector fit is clear, continue comparing models and choose the right deskontroller LITE V3 on deskontrol.net.

Frequently asked questions before buying

Which model should I choose?

The decision depends on three variables: total universes, pixel density and the balance between capacity and FPS headroom. For mid-scale projects with a well-balanced profile, 96U is usually a good starting point. For compact projects where motion fluidity is the priority, 32U or 64U tend to fit better. For larger LED surfaces or heavier coverage needs, it makes sense to evaluate 128U, 160U or 192U.

Do all models have 32 physical outputs?

Yes. The physical output architecture is common across the entire range. What changes from one model to the next is the total available capacity and the operating headroom in terms of universes, pixels and refresh rate.

Does it work with MADRIX, Resolume, MadMapper or TouchDesigner?

Yes, provided the software is sending Art-Net correctly. deskontroller focuses on hardware that works with standard industry software, without locking you into a proprietary ecosystem. Dedicated compatibility pages are available for each of these platforms.

Does the deskontroller power the LED strips or pixels?

No. The deskontroller delivers data signals to addressable pixels. LED strip or pixel power must be handled separately according to the voltage, current draw and topology of the installation.

Is there real technical support and warranty coverage?

Yes. deskontroller products are backed by a 5-year warranty and direct technical support. The objective is not just to sell a unit, but to provide a professional hardware base supported by documentation and support that holds up in real-world installations over time.
