The Magic 260 is a 19-inch rack mount DMX controller from Elation Professional that’s perfect for lighting users with “mid-level” needs, such as neighborhood clubs, discos and professional DJs.

With 260 DMX channels, the Magic 260 can control up to 48 DMX-compatible moving lights. It can store up to 24 x 48 scenes and 264 shows.

The Magic 260 is ideal for lighting operators who don’t need a big console like the Show Designer 1 or 2, but want something larger than a basic 8 or 12-fixture unit, and with more features.

It comes equipped with a large library of pre-installed profiles for Elation Professional and American DJ moving light fixtures plus other brand name lighting fixtures so users don’t have to spend time programming their own.

Users will be able to control non-DMX fixtures with the Magic 260, too. The unit features four On/Off auxiliary switches specifically for this purpose. Non-DMX lights can be connected to a power pack, run through the line, and turned on and off with one of the four auxiliary switches.

Another really unique feature on the Magic 260 is a Help Button that guides users step-by-step through the process of recording scenes and shows.
