Compact and fully pre-programmed

The Botex Rainbow Rider DMX is a compact lighting desk that is designed exclusively for use with LED lights. Its clearly designed user interface focuses on the most essential functions to allow beginners to quickly and easily create impressive lighting without requiring any prior programming knowlege. The Rainbow Rider's 12 colour presets and 24 automatic programmes take a lot of work out of the user's hands and provide complete light shows at the touch of a button. The setup can easily be expanded by adding a smoke machine and a strobe light, and those who want to get more hands-on with their lighting can also put together their own chaser programmes and vary the speed and intensity as they desire. The scope of delivery also includes a USB charging cable and a USB power plug as well as a USB stick with pre-installed shows.

Controls and faders on the Botex Rainbow Rider DMX

For the most popular LED types

The Rainbow Rider DMX, which measures just 280 x 52 x 180mm, can control up to five LED lights separately and is compatible with all common types, includig RGB, RGBW, RGBA, and RGBAWUV. The 12 presets and 24 chaser programmes mentioned above are assigned to individual buttons and can be adjusted in terms of both speed and intensity. The LED lights are connected via the three-pole DMX output located on the Rainbow Rider's rear panel, while power is supplied via the adjacent USB-C port. The four buttons located beneath the small display screen are then used to assign up to 512 DMX channels (a process that is particularly easy when using the Stairville lights specified in the manual). Once everything is configured, the show can be started at the touch of a button. Alternatively, the user can activate the desk's sound-to-light function and allow the lighting changes to be carried out automatically to the beat of the music, leaving them free to attend to their guests.

For intimate party settings

Newcomers to the world of lighting can use the Botex Rainbow Rider DMX to turn any room into a dancefloor thanks to its twelve rapid colour changes, whether it's for a private event or a small party. Its slow ambient chaser programmes also make this lighting desk a great choice for creating relaxed background lighting in restaurants, and its small footprint means that it is equally suitable for installation in bars where installation space may be tight. Users with a little more ambition can also programme their own sequences and store up to 36 of them using the Rainbow Rider's recorder function. And mobile DJs can add this compact lighting desk to their setup without needing a separate mains power outlet if they instead connect it to a suitable power bank (available separately).

DMX connections on the rear panel of the Botex Rainbow Rider DMX

Let there be light...

Both living room concerts and parties require the same basic setup, the only variable generally being the length of the DMX cables used: First, a so-called DMX chain is created by connecting the input of the first LED light to the lighting desk's DMX output, and the light's output is in turn connected to the input of the next light, and so on. This allows a more extensive lighting setup to be created for parties and other events, despite the fact that the Rainbow Rider DMX only has five starting addresses for the respective LED types. All that remains is to assign the desired number of LED lights to the same starting address, and the show can begin.

Super Sache
DJ Steffen 27.01.2023
Erstmal danke an Thomann für die schnelle und zuverlässige Lieferung.
Bin DJ seit über 30 Jahren in Berlin und habe schon so manche Lichttechnik im Einsatz gehabt.
Meine Veranstaltung sind sehr unterschiedlich und es kommen ja auch immer mehrere verschiedene Geräte zum Einsatz. Für mich ist dieses Produkt wie geschaffen. Der Auf-und Abbau muss schnell und einfach sein. Möchte mich auch nicht großartig mit irgendwelchen DMX-Programmierungen beschäftigen. In diesem kompakten DMX Controller sind viele Dinge fertig eingestellt die man ganz einfach auf Tastendruck abrufen kann z.b. Farben, Helligkeit, verschiedene Programme, Farbverläufe, Ambiente-Light und Strobo-Effekt. Und das alles einstellbar von soft bis schnell.
Also super Sache für alle die nichts mit der DMX-Programmierung am Hut haben.

Gut, aber nicht wirklich überzeugend.
Schlabbi 03.09.2023
Habe das Teil testweise mal bestellt. Ich hatte von den Programmierungen mehr erwartet. Die Lauflichter sind simpel und große Unterschiede auf den 12 Stationstasten sind nicht erkennbar. Mir gefällt auch nicht, dass fast immer alle Scheinwerfer leuchten. Man hätte bei der Programmierung auch mal "Lücken" lassen können. Man muss also seine eigenen Lichtstimmungen oder Lauflichter programmieren, wenn es nicht zu eintönig sein soll. Dafür braucht es aber ein weiteres Lichtpult. Etwas umständlich. Dann lieber doch ein vernünftiges Pult zulegen und alles selbst programmieren.

Ich sehe dieses Gerät eher im Party/DJ-Bereich. Wenn man keine Zeit/Lust hat um Lichtstimmungen/Lauflichter zu programmieren und keine großen Ansprüche hat, dann ist das Teil ok.

Sitä saa mitä tilaa
kiksu 16.09.2023
Laite tuli ensinnäkin kierona, joten sen pohjassa olevista kumitassuista vain kaksi ylsi pöytään asti ja laite keikkui sitä käytettäessä. Toisekseen mukana tuleva metallinen USB-tikku kuumenee noin kymmenessä minuutissa huolestuttavan kuumaksi. Ja kolmantena laitteen näyttö on alkanut bugaamaan hetken käytön jälkeen niin että se täyttyy sattumanvaraisista merkeistä (tämä on alkanut muutaman käyttökerran jälkeen). Viimeisintä olen koittanut debugata vaihtamalla USB-tikkua ja ottamalla virran verkkovirrasta enkä USB-varavirtalähteestä, tuloksetta.

Muutenkin laitteessa on tehty outoja valintoja. Nappeja on eri moodeille todella monta (värejä on monta joka on hyvä), mutta ne vaikuttavat kaikki hyvin yksinkertaisilta, samanlaisilta ja tylsiltä. Laitteen "Fade" liukusäädin on turha ellei ohjelmoi jotain moodeja itse, mutta en voi kuvitella kenenkään oikeasti tekevän sitä (en ole kankeuden takia viitsinyt edes yrittää) + näytön bugaaminen lyhyen käytön jälkeen tekee ohjelmoinnista mahdotonta. USB-tikku vaikutti ostovaiheessa kätevältä ja laitteen päivitystä helpottavalta ominaisuudelta, mutta todellisuudessa on hiukan outoa että sen on oltava kytkettynä käytettäessä ja kuinka usein/kauan laitetta on syytä/mahdollista päivittää?

Mutta eipä tätä kovin ammattimaiseen käyttöön kai ole tarkoitettukaan ja siksi on voitu tehdä kompromisseja ja pitää hinta matalana. Pelkäänpä vain, että tämä laite ei selviä edes ensimmäisestä esiintymisestä...
