New coloured lighting driver available for OS3.3.0!
Overview
The Nicolaudie STICK and DINA ranges are state-of-the-art DMX sequencers, capable of complex dynamic scenes, and stunning colour chases; integration with the Control4 takes it to the next level.
This driver was designed to bring control a Nicolaudie STICK-DE3 into your Control4 project, providing up to 10 zones on RGB, each with 50 available scenes - and is now compatible with the full STICK and DINA ranges.
If your Control4 system is running OS3.3.0+, this suite introduces native colour control for your lighting fixtures, from any Control4 UI; this not only introduces intuitive control of your fixtures, but also allows the creation of colour presets for quick and easy colour changes.

- STICK-DE3
