The CHAUVET DJ Obey 10 is a compact and user-friendly 16-channel DMX controller designed for basic control of DMX-compatible lighting fixtures such as moving heads, LED pars, scanners, and dimmer packs. It provides an accessible entry point into DMX lighting control for mobile DJs, small bands, and venue operators who need to create dynamic light shows without the complexity of larger consoles. The controller features 16 individual faders, each corresponding to one DMX channel, allowing for manual, real-time adjustment of fixture parameters like intensity, color, gobo selection, and movement speed. Its straightforward layout emphasizes hands-on control, making it intuitive for users to learn and operate during live performances.

A key feature of the Obey 10 is its built-in library of automated chases and scenes. Users can select from a variety of pre-programmed lighting effects and apply them to their fixtures, which can then be triggered manually or synced to music via a built-in microphone or audio input. The controller also includes a blackout button for instant cutoff and a dip switch for setting the unit's DMX start address. While it lacks the advanced programming capabilities of higher-end consoles, its focus on immediate, tactile control and ready-to-use effects makes it a practical tool for creating engaging light shows with minimal setup time.

Housed in a lightweight, portable case, the Obey 10 is designed for easy transport and setup. It connects to lighting fixtures via a standard 3-pin or 5-pin XLR DMX output. By offering essential DMX control in a simple, affordable package, the CHAUVET DJ Obey 10 enables performers to add a professional level of lighting automation and creativity to their shows without a steep learning curve.
