For sale: The Showtec SM16/2 is a 16-channel DMX lighting controller, designed for professional stage, theatre, and event lighting setups. This vintage version offers intuitive programming, manual control, and solid build quality, typical of Showtec's early DMX desks.
This particular unit powers up, but no full functionality test has been performed due to the lack of compatible fixtures.
Condition: The unit powers on, but it has not been tested further. Because of this, it is being sold as is. There is minor cosmetic damage, including small scratches and marks from previous use, but all buttons and faders appear intact. Please note that this unit requires a 12V adapter to opperate.
