The Martin M1TS Professional DMX Lighting Controller Console is an all-in-one, state-of-the-art lighting desk that offers the power and functionality of a larger console within a compact form factor. The "TS" designation indicates a fully integrated console featuring a high-resolution folding touchscreen, which streamlines the programming and playback workflow for lighting designers in live events, theatres, and production environments. This design philosophy provides a balance of advanced control capabilities and an intuitive user interface, built on an industrial motherboard with a dedicated Intel processor and ample RAM for stable performance.

The console is engineered for versatility and scalability, providing four DMX universes of control directly from its rear panel, with the capacity to control up to 32 universes in total when using network protocols like Art-Net and sACN. This makes it suitable for managing both small to medium-sized lighting rigs and serving as a powerful control center for larger, more complex installations with thousands of parameters. The integrated design, combined with robust software features like an extensive fixture library and a powerful effects engine, allows for rapid programming and dynamic control over all types of intelligent lighting fixtures.

For tactile operation, the M1TS features a comprehensive control surface with 10 motorized playback faders, 24 sub-playbacks, and multiple digital rotary encoders with LED status feedback. The inclusion of dynamically labeled digital LCD buttons enhances parameter access and visual feedback during a show. Its durable construction is designed to withstand the demands of touring, offering reliability and consistent operation. The console's ability to interface with other M-Series modules also means it can expand as production needs grow, ensuring long-term utility.
