    BETTER THAN MKIII

    Showtec MULTIDIM MKII DMXPublished on 08/24/13 at 10:52

    This model resists more than the new genration MKIII.
    It is possible to put 1000w per channel, which is strongly discouraged because the MKIII must change if the triac continuously.

    For my part I change my park by MKII MKIII.

    I bought this block for power wiring by 64 7 500Watts, the first use I loaded 3000 watts for 40 minutes just to see if the block was the result once blown fuse and the fuse protects the cable around, not time to return used as a performance I change the emergency cable fuse holder and fuse (I put a 20 amp). over problem. But obviously this equipment is not reliable, I bought it because I had another block nicols 4x5a 220 volts which I was very happy, but that was not in stock when my order. In short, the nicols did 250 performances showtec smoothly and not even a rehearsal.

    I use the multidimensional MK2 few years now.
    I have not tested other device before lessayer because I ordered on the net.
    I like simplicity of operation, it is made to convert a DMX signal power signal and that's all that matters to me.
    However after a few years of use and some transports off flight case I must say, I'm getting channels that merdent (1 per unit, as I 2)
    The value for money is interesting
    I think I remake this choice, or why not another brand substantially equivalent test history ..

    I use in parallel on the RVE prestas Cube, obviously there is no need to even make a comparison. Curve graduation Cube is better defined, it sends less noise in electrical distribution and has individual protection per channel, but it is a pro camera and it's not the same price.

    One of the cheapest in its class, the present Showtec still in my opinion a great value and a good reliable and efficient device that wants a basic 4 channel dimmer without taking the head pro aspects. Mine works perfectly and has never given any sign of weakness.

    So in summary, good product for basic use I make I would do this choice without hesitation. If I want something more professional, I would look at RVE.

    Just used for test

    Programming is simple, the manual is clear.
    Power a bit "limited" damage.

    Taken consistent and quality.

    Case too big, hard to stay quietly.

    Anyway, I sold it and went to TRILED BY RGB.

    I use it almost every Weekend since its purchase in September 2012, I already had 2 blocks of the same model but brand Mac Mah, who have proven themselves since 2008.
    I love this type of block as it allows to connect in places where electric power is low (phase socket) and they divide the number of extensions is drawn by four since no one pulls a cord to power block (Because I place the block in the deck or on the foot bar.
    The assignment DMX interface is very convenient (no DIP switch, which is not easy for beginners).
    I do not use that DMX, I do not use the chases that are in the block.

    Level fuses I grilled one once, they do not cost anything (1 € 25 3) there is one fuse 5A per channel.
    Very good value for money, I would do this purchase without hesitation, very convenient.
    I am thinking that I would buy against that kind of power other than on thomann because German companies is not top ...

    Perfect for beginners! You pick a power unit to power Dimmer or simply switcher your lights? This block is for you!

    With a max 5A per channel, the block will run about 1000W per channel, thus leaving still a wide range of lighting to plug it.

    It is controllable by DMX.

    His only fault I would say is that we do not know to use a predefined sequence (with sound or automatic) Dmx and he was only 5A max per channel. After that it should end up directly of course!

    But it's still very good material!

    Tested on two services. Perfect for ordering 2 or 3 PAR56 per channel.
    DMX responds well to commands even with a 30m cable unterminated, linear variation, no noise. For the price it is a perfect product for me. Careful planning adapters Schuko. We will see the length in time ...

    This is my first dimmer. I use it recently.
    I use it to drive in a simple small DMX Moon 50w and a small non strob dmx.

    Operation is very simple. The case seems strong.
    The programming of the different mode (DMX or auto) is very simple.

    Attention, it is not suitable for LED lighting. A specific model exists for this.

    Use for 6 months, regardless of time and the product is a delicate are using.

    Not reliable at all and slight oscillation of the light ...

    I use it for 10 months on several concerts. I also have another model: the BOTEX DDP-405. One Both work well. except for a fuse to change from time to time but that's normal I suppose. Very easy to use, I control with a USB case myDMX American DJ + software and a small notebook. Super easy and convenient.

    The pros: the price
    The -: for now I have not found.

    I put 9 / 10 as good value for money
