✓ School District’s Cure for In House Lighting CounselsI have been using the app for a couple of years now. Primarily for a number of school districts that I work for and their in-house dimmer racks. It’s been a very intuitive and easy app to use, especially for students. We go out of our way to use it versus a regular lighting console. It’s also has been great for musicals and special events when we need to add special lighting. That being said, it seems there hasn’t been a cure for a long time bug about assignment of fixture's DMX address if not in order. Also, tends to crash if you make a lot (70-80plus) scenes. Say for like, a musical. Other than that, I am recommending this setup for capital projects from now on..Sauvé SoundVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Great app but needs 16 bit controlI would give this app 5 stars except lighting control faders are limited to 8 bit. This makes the dimming the lights jumpy. The XY control is available in 16 bit, why not lighting control??? Please make this update!.UfpVersion: 3.7

✓ Possible updateLove the app. Works great. The only thing I’ve had an issue with, and wondering if this could be an update. While selecting the colour temp on a daylight/tungsten fixture, the slider bar is quite small. I find it sometimes takes a little longer getting the exact number (might just be my fingers). Wondering if there could be an option where it opens the slider as a vertical bar to better select, or if it magnifies while sliding, or if there was a numeric pad to just type in the colour temp. This would help speed the process. But, like I said I love the app and use it almost every day on set!.RydezVersion: 3.6

✓ Best DMX Software AvailableI have been using using the old luminair app for a number of years mobile dj'ing and was very excited to see this major update of which improves an already great app! I Connect my midi keyboard to my iPad and works perfectly for mobile dj'ing! Great work guys :).Mr-SamWedgeVersion: 3.0

✓ No updates in years.Basically it’s a good app. But needs a lot of changes and fixes to workflow to make it a great app. For the money I’d expect lots of updates. But there’s been none..Nonesuch9Version: 3.7.3

✓ Great app.Developer takes the time to respond to users..PixelnineVersion: 4.2.2

✓ App is good but can”t compare to hardwareAfter setting up all, accessing the scene is great. But if you have a lot of channels and needed to make a change on a particular channel, it may be hard to find because you will have to scroll through many pages and all fader looks the same. If the text label on top of the fader is bigger or a large translucent text under fixtures faders would help finding channel with ease..Val.zsVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Please allow one time purchaseI own Luminair 3 and find it a good buy imperfect program. Would like to try version 4 but the monthly subscription is too much for my usage level..Heath_eldVersion: 4.3.7

✓ The monthly subscription is a bit muchThe monthly subscription is a bit rough considering the initial outlay wasnt cheap I cant recall how much it was because it was ages ago but it wasnt cheap I use it in my local church as our other programme became unstable and had to start messing around with it and so far its been good but yeah without the monthly fee would be better I feel..ScottalsVersion: 4.1

✓ The best DMX controller on the ipadHands down the best!! Well worth the money compared to purchasing a full DMX controller. This works great and so easy to setup and Customer support is one of the best, always willing to help and answer questions. Don't hesitate, just get this app and open up a world of possibilities with DMX lights..JazzymcVersion: 3.3

✓ Old vs newI've been using Luminair since near the beginning. Having to purchase the new version was worth it. More stable and several workflow and GUI improvements..KillderekVersion: 3.5.5

✓ Best Customer Service EVER!!!I have being successfully using Luminair for over a year. It is awesome software. I then had an issue with my lights but didn't know if it was software related. I contacted Ryan at Luminair who provided me with the best customer support I have experienced. He was patient and helpful and got me back on track..Ruckman65Version: 3.6

✓ LitNoice.NBCSmusicVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Full of bugs and not worth the money.Was expecting great things but this version crashes all the time on iPhone 6 plus and looses connectivity with enttec ODE frequently. The apple watch app only works when the app is open in foreground of iOS on another device which kind of defeats the purpose. As a fully paid 'new version' it offers only lacklustre new features. Totally not worth it :(.XebedieVersion: 3.0.4

✓ Needs getting used toLuminair is a language of it’s own. One needs some time to learn how to use it but also personalize it, but once that is done it will allow you to reach you goals and save tremendous amount of time with the amazing new LED lights that are flooding the market. Enjoy.All in together nowVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Best lighting solution for my bandI use this app to control 6 moving heads, 3 battens, and 3 pars for my function band. I trigger them all via a MIDI foot switch so I can play and control lights and I’ve been doing this for 3 seasons now without any issues. This is by far the best solution I have found on the market for this level of control and creativity. I am no a lighting engineer by trade (strictly audio!!) but I made sense of it and it’s advanced features. I would love the engineers of this app to expand upon its functionality and position it more towards lighting control for bands and venues. The ability for advanced chases on my battens would be amazing - I currently have to apply animations to each RGB led which is time consuming. The price is what it is - still cheaper than a decent, recallable controller and much, much more portable!.EthomasaudioVersion: 4.4.4

✓ Positive First ImpressionsSo far so good. Easily connected to Aladdin and DMG fixtures via Moonlite. The All In is a legacy profile, and the bicolor values are 1-100% (knowing exactly where you are in the 2900K to 6000K range would be preferable to dial in the precise desired color temp). Will give Hive fixtures a go next. A myriad of searchable gels at your fingertips is a big plus. The controls are super responsive, with minimal lag. Quickly controlling multiple fixtures from various vendors is what I was after, and Luminair seems to deliver. Prefer this app vs Blackout for intuitive interface and ease of use..HighSpeedFilmsVersion: 4.3.7

✓ Great AppA shallow learning curve and very easy to get creative..OsirisoptoVersion: 4.2.6

✓ PleasedUse Luminair 3 on a mobile rig for stage lighting using an iPad Pro. As with any technology there’s always room for improvement and options but overall worth the $$ for me.TacrabVersion: 3.6.2

✓ Never had an issueMy application for using this app is for Mobile DJIng. I’ve never had an issue outside user error(lol). Quick and easy to use. You can patch in any fixture, even Chinese off brands..Watts219Version: 3.7.6

✓ Amazing!This is a great bit of software that feels much more high-end than it's price tag. It's so much more intuitive than any lighting desk. Highly recommend..W4 ChiefVersion: 3.0.9

✓ Just so easy to useBought the older version a long time ago and when I finally came to use it, iOS updates on my iPad (and newer iPad) meant I had to buy the latest version of luminair as the older version wouldn’t run on later versions of iOS. That aside, this software for me as a home diy user is perfect. I intend to use this to light scenes for short films and being a lone worker, I can program in sequences and play them on loop, and do multiple takes without needing anyone else on hand. Feedback and advise from tech team has always been prompt and friendly. My only regret is not buying the more expensive enttec dmx device so I wouldn’t have to connect to my iMac..KisscooperVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Hey, it’s Great!Ok so what doesnt have a bug or two especially a new program. Even ms and apple have problems with new os or even updates that crash systems, it happens. BUT just try to get help or any support from them when u find an issue. Since v3 of luminair I bought and now subscribe to the best supported lighting program out - imho. I was extremely new with lighting and made plenty of mistakes totally my fault but the support guys ALWAYS responded quickly and resolved every issue i’ve had. Good luck finding a team as good as these guys anywhere. Now that i can load this on my macbook pro and use dmx with usb I feel the program has truly continued to expand to customers wants and needs. I am a permanent Fan and customer. Have tried many lighting programs and always come back here. So will be staying. Thanks guys for creating and maintaining an excellent platform for lighting control..EadmonVersion: 4.4.4

✓ Best lighting app on IPadOk well the longer review that I had typed up got deleted, so may update this at some point but in short I recommend this application for lighting design in smaller venues or video production and studios. It’s reliable and pretty feature packed. I have used in Church venues, smaller community Theater’s both permanent spaces and rented. And have recommended this to folks in the video world to use in studios and they have really liked its reliability and features.. You are not getting the feature set of a full console her, so if you need advanced effects you will have to shell out the extra money. My community theater uses just over 300 DMX channels, and even though this says it can handle up to 4 universes. I’m not sure let want it for a job that big, but to each their own.. In my community theater I have used it for 7+ years and it has been very reliable, outside of a few bugs more recently that the tech team was very prompt at finding my problem and quickly rolling out a patch.. Over all really happy with this program and will definitely continue using it going forward..BobbyboiVersion: 4.3.4

✓ Great app, but could use more “smart” featuresLove all that Luminair can do! And so glad it includes Hue lights. I’d love if it could include more smart lightning control, for example Lutron Caseta. It works great as house lighting, so if it could be controlled via Luminair then it would be even more useful for affordable/lower budget and amateur event spaces..BHudson85Version: 3.7.6

✓ Version 4 Fixture ProfilesPlease update all fixture profiles to have the Mode or Protocol number listed, and list it first. For example in the Astera Profiles there is no way to find Mode 90 or any other Mode number. It’s just listed as the channel/fader control IE: CCT DIM GM HS DIM, this makes it really difficult to decipher what mode each profile is. Listing the Mode/Protocol number first will help exponentially. Thank you..Hot Strike LightingVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Very Nice apps!!!Now is really simple to use with moving lights!!!.DJ Jean-MichelVersion: 3.0

✓ Excellent DMX controller.A truely great app with fantastic support. I've tried a lot of DMX apps and this is the one that actually does what it says it'll do and on the rare accessions that it doesn't they'll sort it quick smart. I'd held off for a long time as I'm allergic to subscriptions but this app makes it worthwhile..Knowle's CreekVersion: 4.2.9

✓ Best lighting appI have some Chauvet lights and tried to use the Obey controller by Chauvet and its was so difficult to use I stopped using the controller and used the foot pedal switches that came with the 4Bars. And let the moving heads do it’s own thing via a preset program. I found out about this Luminair app and wow, it’s easy to use just load in make and model of lights and off you go. I even use this app to make a moving head do the job of a Follow spot . Not to mention how cool and hi tech it looks when you are controlling the lights via iPad. I would give it 10stars if I could..Hi-GradeVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Nothing quite like it.Make the investment in your router when you get this app, and don’t cheap out. With a great router and a solid DMX converter, this system is as reliable as it gets. Truly love the workflow after I got used to it, and hope this software sticks around for years. Can’t wait to put in on my Mac with the new macOS app too. Thanks for making a killer program y’all..Isaac__BakerVersion: 4.2.14

✓ StuartSTablets should be the future for lighting design. Luminair essentially 'does what it says on the tin' but doesn't take full advantage of being on a portable touchscreen device. Lighting design is a spatial rather than a numeric discipline, so turning on 'that light there at about three quarters' is preferable to setting channel 37 to 192. Luminair needs the ability to choose and set lights from a rig plan, magic sheet or whatever you wish to call it, rather than having to juggle with a paper plan to find a channel number then side scroll through pages of faders to find the right one. Could also borrow timeline display ideas from movie editing apps for sequence building. Could be a very slick app. —-Update after much more use in anger: I would strongly recommend improvements in fixture selection as ones rig grows. Swiping one’s way through getting on for 100 faders to ride the one you want in a live or last minute programming situation is far from ideal..Stuart.sVersion: 3.6.1

✓ Long time userJust wanted to say after many years of using this app, it has been extremely useful at my level easy to use and works as it should. The updates come along seem to help things along. I looked on now everything works perfectly.SlystewartVersion: 4.3.7

✓ AMAZINGApp works amazing! Pretty gutted how it dropped down 20$ 2 days after I payed the full 100$ but it works so that's cool. Can be a handful to get your head around at First, but once it starts working it does the trick no questions asked. Doesn't use too much battery and its quiet good to use on a big screen. Would like t be able to use the gimbal and colour change wheel at the same time but other then that it works good :).GHhghyvtVersion: 3.4

✓ So many improvements!Always loved this app. since its early days. Still has the same feel as the earlier versions, but infinitely more assignable. Still finding new stuff after 2 hours of play and don’t think i’ve found everything yet. Absolutely love the single channel effects editor!.MarkLightUKVersion: 3.0

✓ Brilliant AppI just keep find ways to do something that is actually quite easy. This is an app that a non- desk op can use and do some cool stuff..HigniallVersion: 3.7.6
