Show controller for complex shows and attractions

Medialon Showmaster Pro is an all-in-one embedded show controller with comprehensive support for industry-standard show control protocols. Control and synchronise dimmers, lighting consoles, video projectors, video servers, sound processors, and more. Includes 16 digital inputs, 16 relay outputs, and balanced LTC (Timecode) input/output with video reference (genlock).

An easy drag-and-drop programming interface lets you create custom HTML touch screen interfaces (WebPanels) that can be viewed by up to 10 simultaneous web browsers.

Showmaster Pro supports third party networked Serial, I/O, Infrared, MIDI, and DMX interfaces.

Built for flexibility and reliability, Showmaster Pro is ideal for complex AV environments that demand precision timing and seamless control.

OpenCapXML Plugin for Unity®

  • Unity programmers building interactive games or generative media applications can use the OpenCapXML plugin to access Tasks and Variables in Medialon show control systems.
  • The plugin connects Unity with Medialon Manager and Showmaster projects—making it easy to trigger tasks, update variables, and subscribe to variable changes in real time.
  • With OpenCapXML, Medialon acts as a bridge between the Unity-based virtual world and the physical world—enabling synchronized control of lighting, audio, scent generators, heat lamps, water misters, haptics, and projection systems. 
  • Best of all, the full experience can be mocked up virtually, programmed, and debugged off-site, streamlining development and deployment.
