The Wolfmix W1 MK3 is a standalone DMX lighting controller that lets you build, edit and run light shows on the unit itself, with no computer. It is aimed at DJs, live performers, clubs, venues and show productions that want fast control of their rig.

Instead of rows of faders like a traditional console, the W1 MK3 is built around groups and effects. You put fixtures into groups, pick colour, movement and beam effects, and store combinations that work as presets to recall during a set. It also works with any DMX device, and can act as a DMX splitter with universe mapping, so you can set addresses, device order and groups from the controller.
The MK3 updates the W1 MK2 with a refined design, a new button mechanism with a better tactile feel, USB-C and a slimmer enclosure shaped to sit flush against the Wolfmix WING. It runs the same software and workflow as the MK1 and MK2 (Firmware 2.0), so existing users can move over without relearning the system. A 100 mm VESA mount allows it to be fixed to a stand or arm.
