Hi Matthew, didn't see that post on the QLC forum! It's true, unbuffered DMX interfaces are a very basic and cheap solution for DMX lighting. However I believe that newbies entering the 'digital' world of lighting can move their first steps with these kind of devices and then eventually upgrade to more expensive and serious ones. If they give up, they'll have a minimum waste of money. I like to think the more options one has, the better.

USB-to-DMX-512 Interface Hi, I've found very good article on Circuit Cellar's September 2004 issue named 'DMX-512 Control - Build a USB-to-DMX-512 Converter'. USB A male metal shell to Din 3pin female adapter cable. USB DMX Interface. 1 USB to DMX Interface Adapter. Support for Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7. Q Light Controller+. DIY USB DMX interface for under $10. And as soon as it has a housing it will replace my de-lighting-adapter as primary device. More Diy Usb To Dmx Converter images.

So I thought to share it. I have myself an unbuffered USB-DMX cable bought on eBay for around 30€ and I have to say it does its job perfectly for tests/experiments or even small productions!

Well, the board arrived today and I did some assembly. Let's say, I had no lucky hand choosing my components as I had to jump through all the loopholes described in the linked post. After soldering the XLR Outlet to the board I had to reprogram, ground lift the pins 2 and 3 from the board and at last connect them to pin 5. But what to say, it works flawless and the first test showed no ugly flickering.

But I have to test that with my USB Midi Controller, the USB Audio Interface and more than a single Par64 LED connected. I'll report back!

No flickering, no detection problems. My DMX Universe currently operates 92 addresses with 9 fixtures. Even very slow fades (which actually sometimes flicker using my purchased interface) run pretty smooth and fine with the unit shown above. I even dug out my old Vestax VCI-100 and a USB Audio Interface to get some more action through the USB ports.
