Presets work from dmx and keyboard.
See attachment.

So what does pixelmad do?

It allows you to mix multiple quicktime movies in layers together on screen
and output that image either as video or as dmx which is sent to DMX lighting fixtures.

PixelMAD can also take up to 2 video inputs from sdi or composite or webcam sources and also mix these together, with movie playback.

Different versions of pixelMAD support different number of playback layers, different numbers of video inputs and outputs, and different numbers of dmx fixtures.

Pixelmad 1 & 2 support a single video or dmx fixture output with 2 or 4 movie layers.
Pixelmad 4 & 8 support 2 outputs using a dual head graphics card - either of which ( or both ) can be configured to output dmx or video.

Pixelmad comes with around 40 different colour modes to mix layers together, and 40 different visual fx to change the shape of the movies.

Pixelmad can be controlled from a lighting desk using 40 channels per layer, or from 200 built-in presets which can be triggered from a single dmx channel, the keyboard, midi*, midi show control* or a web browser* (* planned for release in the next month )
The DMX channel assignment is identical to Highend's Catalyst.
Pixelmad has more visual and colour fx than Catalyst and includes support for a limited number of 3d objects.

PixelMAD can drive hundreds of LED fixtures per mixed video output, on up to 40 DMX universes.

You will get best performance across the most layers with a Dual G5 2Ghz, with a radeon 9800 video card.
Pixelmad supports other configurations.

DMX input was disabled in the 8 layer version.
This is now fixed in the downloadable copy of d19
