Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What hardware do I need to use MyStrow?
A Windows 10/11 or macOS (Intel 11+, Apple Silicon 13+) computer, a DMX interface and your DMX fixtures. The easiest option is the MyStrow Pack: our USB-DMX interface delivered with the licence. Art-Net nodes and most USB-DMX interfaces on the market work too. The AKAI APC mini mk2 controller is recommended for live use — a built-in simulator makes it completely optional.
How do I connect my DMX interface (USB or Art-Net)?
With our USB-DMX interface (MyStrow Pack), just plug it into a USB port: MyStrow recognises it on its own, with no driver and no network settings. With an Art-Net node, connect it to the computer with a network cable: MyStrow searches the network and detects it on startup. Everything is then set in Connections › DMX output, where you also choose the universe of each output. Most Art-Net nodes (Enttec ODE, LumenRadio…) and USB-DMX interfaces on the market work. Step-by-step guide →
My PC doesn't have an RJ45 port — what should I do?
No problem: the simplest option is our USB Node DMX ArtNet interface, which plugs straight into a USB port — no network card or driver needed. And if you prefer an Ethernet node, a simple USB-to-RJ45 adapter, automatically recognized by Windows and macOS, works too.
How does the AI analyze my music?
In AI Lighting mode, MyStrow analyzes in real time the rhythm, frequencies and energy of your music and automatically generates colors, intensities and transitions across your 6 fixture groups. No programming required — plug in, start playback, and the lights adapt.
Is there any latency between music and lights?
Not perceptible. MyStrow sends DMX frames at 25 fps via a dedicated timer. Latency between audio and DMX commands is under 5ms thanks to the Qt Multimedia engine.
Which audio and video formats are supported?
Audio: MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC, OGG. Video: MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV — projected full-screen on a second monitor. You can also insert manual pauses or timed tempos in your playlist.
Is the tablet app paid?
The download is free on Google Play and the App Store, and you can try everything: DMX output runs for 10 minutes each time you launch it. For unlimited use: a one-time €49 in-app purchase, or a MyStrow licence (Pro, Lifetime or Pack), which unlocks the computer AND the tablet at no extra cost. Note that the €49 purchase only unlocks the tablet, not the computer software. More about the app →
Can I run MyStrow on the same computer as Virtual DJ?
Yes. MyStrow and your DJ software (Virtual DJ, Rekordbox, Serato…) run side by side on the same computer. MyStrow doesn't use your DJ controller: it simply picks up the tempo, from the DJ software's MIDI clock or from the sound, to sync the lights to the music. You can also keep the tablet as a remote. See the guide →
How many DMX universes can the tablet control?
On its own, without a computer, the tablet controls 1 universe of 512 channels, through our USB-DMX interface or an Art-Net node. For several universes (up to 4, i.e. 2,048 channels), install MyStrow on your computer and use the tablet as a remote: you keep the touch comfort and the full power of the software. Control from the tablet →
Is the AKAI APC mini controller required?
No. MyStrow is fully controllable by keyboard (Space for play/pause, PageUp/PageDown to navigate) and mouse. A built-in AKAI simulator is included in the interface. The physical controller offers the optimal live experience but remains optional.
How many fixtures can I control?
MyStrow organizes your fixtures into 6 independently controllable groups (A to F). It supports up to 4 Art-Net DMX universes — 2,048 channels total. Addressing is automatic (channels 1, 11, 21…) and fully customizable.
Can I save and reuse my shows?
Yes. MyStrow saves your shows in a .tui file: playlist, light sequences, timeline keyframes and patch settings all included. Transfer it to another machine and get exactly the same result.
Does MyStrow work on Mac and Windows?
Yes. MyStrow is available on Windows 10/11 and macOS (Intel 11+, Apple Silicon 13+). Both versions receive the same updates simultaneously via the built-in automatic update system.
Does MyStrow work offline?
Yes. MyStrow runs entirely locally — DMX communication passes through the local network via Art-Net (UDP). No internet connection is required during a show. A connection is only needed for initial licence activation and automatic updates.
