Many people use the LAN-Box for controlling DMX. I worked with a very 

early version, which worked adequately, and since then there have 

been numerous improvements. One of the developers, Fokko, is on the 

list. You can probably search the forum to find contact information

i used MIDI and serial version of Cinetix DMX converters. Both worked 

very well and build quality is good. They have some really nice 

features like 60 presets, crosfade between presets, versions with 

build in simple analog/digital input/output, etc....

I recently purchased a 'home-made' dmx interface from a small French company ( 

It runs on a parrellel portand with other software it works fine.

Is there anyway of testing it in max/msp?

hello, can someone please explain the differences between dmxusb and dmxusbpro?

from what i gather:

dmxpro:

+ updatability of firmware

You can only use the pro version on a mac. Not sure about a PC.

while paying to be pro is nice and all, is there an inherent flaw in

yes, there's a big flaw that makes it pretty useless. or at least 

this was the case ~1 ago - haven't tried it since.

I'm a windows user, but went with the pro version, simply for Olaf 

Matthes' object. It makes my lights just another max-thing, I love it.

By the way, are any of you using a dmx fader bank to control max? That
