Built on the dancefloor to console standards.
Spectralite is professional lighting-control software. It came out of the clubs and festivals of electronic music, and we build it to the standards a touring rig needs.
Where it came from
Spectralite started with a rig in an electronic-music venue. Those rooms run dense pixel rigs on tight budgets, in the dark, and locked to the music. We couldn't find software that handled that and cost what those rooms could pay, so we built the tool we wanted to run.
What we take seriously
Spectralite has native GDTF, more than 4,200 fixtures, moving heads controlled by their real parameters, and Art-Net, sACN, MIDI, NDI and RDM on the network. The GPU renders tens of thousands of pixels in real time. One engine holds the state of the whole show, and the interface reads from it.
How we sell it
We publish our prices on the page. You buy Spectralite once and own it forever, every feature is in every tier, and the free tier outputs real DMX without a dongle. You don't need a quote or a sales call, and nothing locks you in. That won't change.
Who builds it
Spectralite is built by De Koole Centrale in Groningen, the Netherlands, and has been in development since 2022. It runs at electronic-music festivals and clubs across the country. The operators who run it there shape what we build next with their feedback, feature requests and bug reports. If you run Spectralite in a venue or on a tour, we want to hear how it holds up.
Run it on your Mac and pay the price on the page.
