True full stack development: from microprocessor to user interface
Vanilla is a hardware and software development business. We love to solve problems and build things. Our main focus is on the entertainment industry, specialising in custom hardware solutions for integration with DMX lighting infrastructure.
We also provide hardware components and advisory services to professionals and amateurs who are building their own systems. Over the past 15 years, we have developed a number of building blocks for systems integrators and self builders, across a wide range of industry applications.
If you don't see what you need here, get in touch and we will do our best to help.
4 Channel DMX DIN Mounted Relay
The DMX DIN Relay Module is a ready to use 4 channel DMX relay system with the capability to switch 16A 250VAC per channel. Its easily expandable upto 8 channels by using our 4 way relay expansion module, or compatible single DIN mountable relays.
Each of the 4 built in relays is capable of switching 250VAC @ 16A.
DMX Wall Switch
The DMX Wall Switch Controller is a simple way to control DMX house lights without the need to plug in and turn on your lighting desk. It’s ideal for small venues without a lighting technician, or simply for doing the cleaning!
The controller has the ability to store two full DMX scenes and output them to the DMX network. Scenes are selected using one or more Wall Plate fixtures.
USB DMX Interface
We originally designed a USBDMX interface around the begining of 2005 and published it as a DIY project over at USBDMX.COM which proved very popular with thousands of people viewing the instructions and building the interface for themselves.
Since that original design many people wanted a ready built version for commerical use and so we improved on the design.
