We introduced our DMG Lumière MIX LED technology at NAB in 2018. Since then, MIX has become one of Rosco’s most popular products and filmmakers around the world have been putting the lights and the myMIX app to work illuminating their sets. Many cinematographers and gaffers using MIX reported back with ways to improve the technology, and we’re thrilled to report that we listened and that much of the feedback we received is present in the release of MIX 2.0! It's worth noting that MIX 2.0 includes both a firmware upgrade for the MINI MIX and SL1 MIX fixtures, and an update for the myMIX app. It is necessary to upgrade/update both systems. You can find instructions on how to upgrade to MIX 2.0 on the DMG Lumière website.
From Loving Amber to all of our CTS Straw corrections – we have added 50 more Rosco gel colors into Gel Mode. These True Rosco Colors are available inside both the fixture/controller and in the myMIX app, and have been tested to ensure that they are an exact match to actual Rosco gels on traditional filmmaking fixtures.
Users are now able to choose colors in Color Mode using xy in the CIE 1931 color space. In addition, REC709 and REC2020 overlay filters are also now available for users that want to limit their gamut to those specific color spaces. This feature is available on the fixture/controller and in the myMIX app.
We have increased the output of our MIX fixtures in Color Mode. Users will notice that the intensity has doubled for several of the more saturated colors they can create in Color Mode.
MIX users will notice improved low-level dimming in White Mode, Gel Mode and Color Mode.
MIX users will notice improved wireless connections, including improved CRMX stability (Lumen Radio), and a more reliable Bluetooth connection.
Your MIX Controller is now a Lumen Radio Gateway… FOR FREE! The MIX controller can be used without the light as a gateway from wired DMX to CRMX (Lumen Radio), CRMX to wired DMX or Wi-Fi to wired DMX or CRMX.
PRO-TIP: If you are researching wireless transmitters, receivers and transceivers – add the MIX Controller to your list. It is a reliable wireless solution for, oftentimes, much less investment.
MIX users can now organize their fixtures into groups in the myMIX app. The number of lights you can group is dependent on your mobile device: 14 on iOS and 7 on Android. Once you add a light to the group, that fixture will then take the settings of the group.
These upgrades will improve your MIX experience with more True Rosco Color choices in Gel Mode, a wider palette of brighter colors in Color Mode, enhanced control options – plus a whole lot more.
