Live control
Let your impulses take over. Improvise and match the mood with instant pitch adjustment, freeze, flash, blackout, master fader and more. Xciter gives you unprecedented spontaneity with six general faders and two masters, six flash and four customised buttons. Every cue, every effect, every fixture for every beat, is now just a hand reach away.

The X FX
With Xciter, lighting and effect triggers are no longer confined to simple BPM’s. The Xciter sports leading edge technology that allows different fixtures to follow base, mids or highs, in fact all spectrums of your music; giving greater pronouncement to individual rhythms and giving you a complete and dynamic show.

Nowhere to hide
Control up to 40 fixtures, each with up to 48 channels – with a maximum of 512 channels! This level of total light command empowers you to influence your audience far beyond the boundaries of the dance floor. And programming is a breeze with a joystick for manual pan and tilt guidance.

Custom buttons
Functions such as strobe, smoke, mirror ball activation and more can be allocated to each of four programmable buttons for simplified effects juggling.

Fade to Flash
Assign effects, scenes or dimmers to any of six faders and flash buttons and access them live during playback. You can also set the Grand Master Fader for overall light intensity and Pitch Fader to get pulses racing; speeding your show by up to fives times when the moment dictates.

Data Dispatch
Connect your PC directly to Xciter via the USB connection to update fixture libraries, to back up, edit, export and import shows.

Streamline
The Xciter’s excellence is not exclusive to within. Martin has matched ingenuity and functionality with grace and aesthetics. Cool blue LCD displays lend both kudos and an easy navigation for Xciter’s show menu, dialogue and fader label screens. A jog wheel also delivers a friendly scrolling function through fader pages while a joystick simplifies the manual pan and tilt control.
