1U D3 Core Titan stand-alone rack processor - Avolites AVO-30-02-3000

The D3 Core is a new product for the company and is extremely important as it represents the transition from entertainment to the world of fixed installations. No competing brand produces a similar device. It is a 1U rack processor designed to offer the power of the Titan system while functioning as a stand-alone controller. Designed for fixed installations, embedded applications, remote configurations, or environments where space is limited, this device allows for reliable and professional lighting control without the need for a connected physical surface or a computer. This processor natively supports up to 16 DMX universes, equivalent to 8192 channels, and can manage an unlimited number of fixtures. It is compatible with advanced protocols such as Streaming ACN, Art-Net, Art-RDM, CITP, and SMPTE LTC, ensuring optimal integration with lighting and media control systems. Furthermore, thanks to TitanNet, it is possible to create multi-console sessions for shared and scalable management. As mentioned, this processor can operate as a stand-alone controller, running the full Titan operating system, but it can also be integrated with an external control surface, such as the T3. The front panel features a 1.9" display for essential information such as the console ID, showfile, and IP address, as well as the ability to connect an external monitor with up to 4K resolution via USB-C or DisplayPort. Furthermore, one of the wings compatible with the D3 Core can become its control surface. This means the D3 Core becomes the "brain" and the wing the control surface for the sliders. The SMPTE Time Code input is useful in all applications where shows always work with the same music track; we can lock a Time Code, leave this system without any type of control, and when the Time Code is locked, all the lights will automatically start, obviously synchronized with the music track. In addition to the 4 DMX ports (IN/OUT), the back features 2 RJ45 connectors and 2 USB-A ports (a third is on the front).
