The new M1 HD processing unit more than exceeds tomorrow’s demands for processing power and delivers 40 universes of DMX, Art-Net and sACN. All 40 universes are fully unlocked with no need to obtain extra licensing. Plus, M1 HD includes the latest graphic chipset to ensure smooth graphical effects of future software upgrade.
It's bright, capacitive, multi-touch head LCD provides high-resolution, crisp viewing, yet folds down to retain the compact small footprint of the original M1. In addition to its original four encoders, the M1 HD includes four customizable encoders for fast access while programing.
