Next-Generation Lighting Control: MEGA-LITE Launches the Total Control D2

MEGA-LITE has announced the release of the Total Control D2, an innovation in lighting
control technology. This modern USB-to-DMX interface is designed to offer lighting
professionals greater control, flexibility, intelligence and reliability in various applications, such
as touring, houses of worship, production, and permanent installations. The D2 provides a
streamlined way to manage DMX lighting control with features made for improving workflow.
With two assignable DMX universes and dual 5-pin outputs, each port can independently output
any universe or act as a splitter for Universe 1. It unlocks 28 universes in MEGA-LITE’s Disco,
Enlighten and Lumen8 software platforms, enabling scalable control for both small and complex
lighting systems. This unit also integrates a Cuebot Virtual Lighting Operator, which reacts to
incoming music energy levels to automatically tigger cue changes and works seemlessly with
the AI Programmer Assistant for generating looks based on stored presets.
The Total Control D2 is equipped with built-in RDM support, allowing remote fixture addressing
and mode configuration via DMX; a LED feedback system confirms successful RDM
communication in real time. Additional diagnostic features include a patent pending DMX error
detection system that uses LED indicators to notify users of cable shorts, signal corruption, long
un-terminated runs or external interference.
Constructed In a extruded aluminum housing, the D2 is built for field use and includes USB-C
connectivity for improved compatibility with modern PC’s. The Total Control D2 is compatible
with Windows 10 and 11 and includes all the necessary accessories, including USB cables, a
traveling case and a USB flashdrive with software installer and manuals. Experience the power
of smarter lighting control with the Total Control D2
