    DMX software for DJs who need live lighting, not a pre-authored set

    WavePhase is desktop lighting and visuals software you patch once, then drive from the DJ mixer feed. Beat, key, and DSP signals stay live; MIDI and Web Control give you override when the room needs a blackout or a colour change. You do not have to prepare a unique show for every possible track to get basic reactive behaviour.

    Booth night versus a pre-authored set

    Booth night

    Take a loopback or mixer feed, wire beat and DSP sources into the patch, and keep MIDI or a phone bank for blackout and colour. The same patch runs whatever is playing.

    Pre-authored set

    A lighting show built per library track. Useful when you want rehearsal-tight looks — WavePhase can still lock a section of the night to timecode — but it is not required for basic reactive behaviour.

    How WavePhase approaches DJ lighting

    1. 01Take a loopback or mixer feed as live audio input.
    2. 02Use BPM/beat, key, spectral bands, envelope, and transients as graph sources.
    3. 03Route those values into fixture parameters, pixels, and GPU visuals.
    4. 04Output Art-Net or sACN to your nodes; keep MIDI or a phone surface for operator override.

    Concrete DJ workflows

    • Booth loopback, no extra operator

      Route DJ software or a mixer record-out into WavePhase. Wire kick transients to strobes and a bass-band level to wash dimmer. The patch runs while you mix.

    • MIDI pads as safety

      Bind a controller to Live Control banks for blackout, haze, and colour override so a bad analysis moment never owns the room.

    • Moving heads without a timeline for every track

      Beat-locked animators and group spread give motion from tempo. Swap macros between genres instead of rebuilding a cue stack per song.

    • Pixels and screen behind the booth

      The same DSP sources can drive LED bars and Screen Out so lights and visuals share one clock.
