M-III was designed for a restriction free usage on almost any Windows computer, running on Win XP or higher.
- Unlimited number of individual interfaces (M-III)
- Unlimited number of tracks on the timeline (M-III)
- Unlimited number of frames
- Unlimited number of effects or scenes
The only limitation or restriction, that will occur, is your computer hardware. So make sure, your hardware is in proper shape, and your experience with M-III will be limitless! Did we say, we hate restrictions?
Overview for M-III
- Simple creation of a show
The multifunctional time line supports any number of tracks played precisely timed to a selected soundtrack. In addition, any number of sub-tracks with effects per track are possible.
Highlight: All manipulations will be shown in real time on the time line and in preview window. This way you can always see what’s happening where and at which time! Every scene, every frame or every animation can be moved on the time line and adjusted in length and starting time - to the 25th part of a second! After successfully creating a show, you can check for possible mistakes like overlaps or empty frames with the installed Design Rule Check (DRC). The DRC is able to find most of the inadvertent mistakes and enhances the professionalism of your show.
- Unlimited management of projectors
M-III enables a simple and clear management of virtual projectors, which again can be mapped onto physical projectors. Sounds rather difficult? But it’s not! By simple clicking a matrix is created, which routes onto any number of tracks on any number of laser projectors, totally independent from each other! This way different virtual projectors can be distributed automatically to any number of “real“ laser projectors. If necessary, you can overwrite and independently adjust the global scan properties for each virtual projector. This can be useful if text and beam show needs to be displayed at the same time from one laser projector. The text gets its own virtual projector, same as the beam show, and both with different scan properties. This way both projections will be displayed optimally.
- Full DMX control via time line
The new DMX feature enables the unlimited control of all DMX devices via events on the time line. Here the creation is as easily done as for scenes for the laser projector. DMX can be assigned to every track. Furthermore, different tracks can be routed on any interfaces so that any numbers of individual and independent DMX lines are available. Of course DMX is playing parallel and simultaneously with your laser show! Both the for the M-III suitable HyperPort USB Interface or the integrable NetPort LAN Interface card offer a wholesome DMW 512 output.
- Fast and easy creation of effects
The effect editor of the M-III follows well-known video editing software and is therefor very fast and intuitive to operate. Rotations happen via controllers, shifts and zooms via size images. Gradients are easily made with color circles and are continuous. The recoloring tool is phenomenal. By simple loading of a colored background bitmaps colors and gradients are going to be taking over into the specific frame.
- 3D preview window can be disconnected from regular GUI
The disconnectable 3D preview window not only can display one central point of projection but any, freely arrangeable projectors in the 3D room. Now an extremely realistic preview is possible without operating with many laser projectors. This way an explicit programming from home is possible. Therewith the projectors can be adjusted in position and projection angle as well. Cool!
- Powerful geo-correction
The M-III can compensate a projection on uneven areas with a powerful real time-geo-corrector at any time. By courtesy of miscellaneous sliders projections can even be equalized on a ball. As a matter of course this function is available for every single projector.
- Extensive ILDA frame import and export
M-III is open-minded! We accept ILDA standards, although we consider it outdated, and open M-III into all directions. This way it is possible to export a with M-III built show as an ILDA stream and in return to load streams or frames produced on other systems onto the M-III without any compromises or restrictions. Yet artists work exclusively belongs to the artist!
- Live! Interface for multiple projectors
The existent Live! Interface has been drilled up and in the main parts rewritten. Any number of projectors can now be addressed with individual cue lists. The linking to Midi control units has been drastically improved as well as some features at the effects.
Midi keyboards with additional control buttons too are compatible and expand the features of Live! On the button previews you see a preview of the saved effect for a faster selection.
