NX3

The NX3 lighting console was designed around how programmers actually work. With intuitive control, comfortable ergonomics, and professional scalability, NX3 supports everything from small shows to complex productions.

The NX3 UI makes programming intuitive from the moment you sit down. Hardware layouts align directly with on-screen workflows, while motorized faders provide tactile feedback that reflects active playbacks in real time. Customizable RGB-backlit keys, faders, and encoders deliver clear visual status, with color-coded feedback that minimizes guesswork and keeps programmers moving quickly and confidently.

NX3 is designed to feel precise and comfortable over long programming sessions. Tuned key response, stable controls, and refined tactile feedback support faster input with less fatigue, while premium materials and quieter operation help programmers stay focused behind the desk. Its low-profile form factor is optimized for real-world setups, supporting a more natural, comfortable working posture during extended sessions.

NX3 delivers show-ready performance in a compact footprint and is stress-tested for predictable performance under real show conditions. As demands increase, NX3 expands seamlessly through additional control surfaces, displays, and networking—supporting everything from smaller shows to complex productions on the same platform.
