Lights in Touchdesigner

You can control your fixtures straight from Touchdesigner, using an Enttec or over ArtNet

Controlling Lights from Touchdesigner

In Touchdesigner DMX data is sent to the daisy-chain of fixtures through USB (via an ENTTEC available at the uitleen) or ArtNet.


In Touchdesigner you can create 'presets' called Toxes. You can save these on your computer for easy acces:

Controlling Ledstrips with WLED (from Touchdesigner)

image.pngWLED is one of the most popular packages for controlling LED
strips with, or example, the WS2812B through cable & wifi.

The software also supports some other types, such as the WS2811 and WS2815, both on 12 volts. The first step is to flash the software on, for example, an ESP32.
