Many lighting control devices rely on outdated and generic user interfaces. Stellar has been imagined from the beginning to have beautiful graphic interfaces that are tailored to the different ways of selecting color. Exploring colors in a native and intuitive design for a particular mode will make color selection effortless and fast. Complex color modes like x, y coordinates become more accessible and open up this powerful tool for everyone.

Stellar is the perfect app to quickly and easily control ARRI lights while on set. Whether a large film with many scenes and setups or a small project with just a few fixtures, Stellar is built to work in all scenarios. With a long list of feature additions already planned, Stellar will grow into a fully featured lighting control platform. Stellar is the “go-to” application for controlling ARRI LED fixtures as it seamlessly integrates functionality with great design making the task of adjusting lights effortless.

Stellar is the final link in a complete ecosystem of advanced lighting control products from ARRI. The SkyPanel features Art-Net, sACN, DMX, and RDM implementations for a wide range of control options. Combined with SkyLink, a large rig of SkyPanels can be controlled wirelessly with little effort. Stellar brings all these pieces together with intuitive controls that work seamlessly with the SkyLink, SkyPanel, and L-Series hardware. Creating a complex lighting network has never been simpler or easier to manage.

There are seven amazing ways to select color and lighting effects with the SkyPanel. With Stellar, it is possible to instantly switch between control modes so that a color can be chosen with an interface best suited for that mode. There is no need to worry about DMX footprints or addresses as Stellar’s backend takes care of this. Simply pick the color mode desired and adjust the output accordingly.

Stellar enables new control options for existing fixtures

With Stellar, it is now possible to set gels and sources on all L-Series fixtures. Due to a L-Series hardware limitation, this was not possible in the past. Stellar’s powerful interface now can send gel and source matching color data in the background directly to the fixture. It is now possible to choose from over 300 gels and over 45 light source matching colors. This integration is seamless and a welcome addition to the feature set of the popular L-Series.

Stellar does the work so you don’t have to.

Stellar’s auto layout feature makes DMX patching a thing of the past. The app will automatically set the DMX start addresses for all fixtures and continue to manage the network in order to avoid any overlapping devices. Without the need to worry about DMX settings, there is more time to focus on the creative aspects of lighting. In addition, Stellar will navigate the DMX network for you. With the automatic discovery of fixtures, Stellar will search your DMX/RDM network and find every ARRI fixture connected to it. Simply assign the found devices to a project and start lighting. Whether it’s 10 fixtures, 100 fixtures, or more, Stellar can handle it.

Stellar has the ability to import a lighting plot image so that fixtures can be laid out in a two-dimensional space. This visual reference provides ultra-fast selection of light fixtures based on where they are in real space. No more searching through lists, look up tables, or fixture addresses, just tap and control.

Saving favorite colors is an important part of creating a look or preparing for a lighting setup. In Stellar, you can save hundreds of color and lighting effect favorites and bring them with you to every project. It is also possible to share one or all of your favorites with a colleague with a few simple taps.

Creating different lighting looks is a key aspect of any lighting scene. Looks can be stored in Stellar which save all fixture settings and color selections. Switching between a day look and a night look has never been easier. Stellar will take care of switch color modes, settings, and output for all fixtures within a matter of moments.
