Microlux Professional is a 3D
Lighting Design Software that truly spotlights creativity.
It has everything you need to create professional Lighting plans
and schedules. With the ability to view your plan, either in 2D or
3D, you can communicate effectively your ideas, visualize the lighting and test every
aspect of your design.
No other Lighting Design software is as powerful... Focus and see the beams of light, find out the
exact illumination, calculate the weight on your truss and more.
Microlux Professional includes a comprehensive library of Spots, Trusses, Gels,
Gobos, Objects and Theatres. With the included Microlux Composer that allow you to
create or import 2D and 3D objects you can add or modify the existing
libraries. And now registered users can update their libraries directly
from the Internet!
Microlux is an affordable and excellent starting point for any
designer. It produces plans and schedules with powerful
designing tools. Additional modules can be added to Microlux
Professional at
any time for more flexibility.
