Choosing Between LS-1, LS-Wing and LS-Core

The LS-1 Console is a full-featured desk with physical faders and encoders. It's built for touring, fixed installs and venues where you want tactile hands-on control. The LS-Wing adds physical faders to an existing setup controlled by tablet or computer, giving you touch control without the full console footprint. LS-Core and LS-Core IO are compact interfaces that turn your tablet, phone or computer into a control surface, with LS-Core IO offering additional connectivity options. All share the same software interface, so you can switch between hardware as your production scales.

What the Nodes and Interfaces Do

LS Nodes convert the control signal into DMX output. LS Node 1, 2, 4 and 8 refer to the number of DMX universes each unit handles. Choose based on how many fixtures you're running and whether you need to distribute control across multiple zones. The RDM 4 and RDM X add remote device management, letting you configure and monitor compatible fixtures from the controller. Wall panels offer simple scene triggering for installs where operators need preset recall without opening the full interface.

What Works Well With LightShark

Rackmount kits are available for the LS-1, LS-Core IO and nodes, making them easy to integrate into touring racks or installed systems. The gooseneck desk lamp mounts directly to the LS-1 Console for low-light programming. Power supplies are listed separately for LS-Core units. Wall mount kits let you fix nodes and interfaces permanently in technical areas. If you're controlling moving heads, static lights or battery fixtures from the StageKraft range, the platform handles all of them through standard DMX protocols.
