Drive your LED wall
without fighting the software

A modern LED matrix server — a full Scenes / Chases / Show Mode pipeline, 30+ effects, audio reactive, and six output protocols. Built with working shows in mind, not demos.

Free · no account, no licence key · nothing installs itself — the app just tells you when there's a new one.

LMS sits upstream of your controllers. You build looks on a virtual matrix — effects, video, text, images, audio-reactive layers — and it streams the pixels out over whichever protocol your hardware speaks. Patch once, then run the night from Show Mode: big touch buttons, scenes, chases, blackout, a master fader, and a tablet in your hand if you want one.

What's in it

🎬

Scenes, Chases & Show Mode

Build looks, group them into chases, then drive the whole night from one touch-friendly page with latch or flash buttons.

30+ effects

Plasma, fire, radar, starfield, text crawl, metaballs, snow, hearts, pixel-mapped video and more — each with deep parameters, not presets.

🎵

Audio reactive

Live FFT drives VU meters, bars, rings, pulses and sine lines. Real stereo, auto gain, per-band assignment.

🧩

Layer mixing

Two channels with 17 Jinx-faithful mix modes, masks, per-layer opacity and cross-fades between scenes.

📐

Real pixel mapping

Serpentine, ring, arc, polygon and hand-drawn custom maps. Panel footprint editor for odd-shaped rigs and fixtures.

📱

Tablet remote

Scan a QR and run scenes, chases, master and blackout from an iPad or phone on the same Wi-Fi. Optional access PIN.

🎛️

External control in

Trigger scenes from a lighting desk over Art-Net or sACN, or from OSC and MIDI — including MIDI learn.

🖥️

Big walls, HDMI out

For large rigs, output to an HDMI sender card instead of flooding the network with universes.
