M-Live Lakyx L1 DMX Software, Interface

Compact 128-Channel DMX Interface for Synchronized Live Lighting

The M-Live Lakyx L1 is a hardware DMX interface that adds automated, music-driven lighting control to the B.Beat multitrack playback system. Once connected, it analyses each backing track and generates a coherent light show that follows the rhythm and dynamics of the song — no laptop or lighting console required on stage. With 128 DMX channels it covers the typical rig of a small-to-medium live setup, from PAR LEDs and moving heads to bars and strobes.

Automatic Light-Show Generation and Editable Scenes

What sets this interface apart from a generic USB-DMX dongle is the integrated audio-analysis engine inside the B.Beat Manager software. It reads the track and proposes a light sequence that can be refined scene by scene. Existing shows can be captured and re-imported into a backing-track project, and an updated fixture library lets the same show be re-mapped to different rigs without rebuilding cues.

DMX Control Capacity and Protocol Support

Channel count and protocol support set the ceiling for how large and how flexible a lighting rig can be.

• DMX Channels: 128 channels — covers small-to-medium rigs of PARs, bars, moving heads and strobes
• Protocols: DMX512 and Art-Net — wired XLR or network-based lighting on the same unit
• DMX Connectors: 1 × 3-pin XLR IN, 1 × 3-pin XLR OUT with built-in 120 Ω termination on both ports

Host Connection and Power

A single USB-C link to the B.Beat carries both data and power, removing the need for an external PSU on stage.

• Host Link: USB-C to B.Beat — data and bus power through one cable
• DMX Bypass: Hardware pass-through from IN to OUT — keeps the rig running if the host is offline
• Wireless Pairing: LINK button — reserved for future wireless DMX expansion modules

Form Factor and System Requirements

The enclosure is small enough to sit on a pedalboard or in a rack drawer, and light enough to forget it's there.

• Dimensions: 84 × 80 × 61 mm — fits next to the B.Beat on stage or in a case
• Weight: 170 g — negligible in a gig bag or rack
• System Requirements: 8 GB RAM minimum, 16 GB recommended, 6 GB free disk — for B.Beat Manager with the LAKYX plug-in
