Botex DC 1216 II DMX Operator

The Botex DC 1216 II is a highly versatile and user-friendly DMX-512 lighting controller designed to manage complex light shows in clubs, small theaters, and mobile DJ setups. Serving as an evolved update to the original DC-1216, this compact console allows operators to independently control up to 12 intelligent lighting fixtures, with each fixture assigned up to 16 DMX channels. By utilizing its intuitive layout of eight physical faders and a page-select button, lighting engineers can easily manipulate up to 192 total DMX channels, making it an ideal central hub for directing scanners, moving heads, dimmers, and LED wash lights.

Beyond its core channel capacity, the DC 1216 II provides robust programming and playback options to create dynamic, automated performances. The unit boasts a generous memory capable of storing 240 custom scenes across 30 dedicated banks, alongside 6 programmable chases that feature continuous loop functionality. For hands-free or perfectly timed execution, the controller includes an integrated microphone for sound-activated light tracking, standard MIDI control for integration with external sequencers, and dedicated Tap Sync and Fade Time controls. Designed for both desktop use and standard 19-inch 3U rack mounting, it ships complete with a dedicated power supply unit (PSU) for immediate out-of-the-box deployment.
