QLC
Q Light Controller is a cross-platform application for controlling DMX or analog lighting systems like moving heads, dimmers, scanners etc. The goal is to replace hard-to-learn and somewhat limited commercial lighting desks with FLOSS.
Many people respect others opinions and therefore might like to see some reviews as well as screenshots.
