    Default Minilumax DAC

    Hi all,

    I am selling 3 used Minilumax DACs with aluminium enclosures. They work perfectly. These are the USB old boards, not the NET newer version.
    140 euros a single board + shipping cost from UK.
    350 euros all 3 + shipping cost from UK.
    If interested please contact me: faustobini@gmail.com

    Thanks.Click image for larger version.

    These were (in a slightly different package) the DAC's used with Laserworld's Showeditor back 2009 and 2011 releases. It was also used by HB-Laserscan's version of Showeditor. While the DAC's looked exactly alike, there was something internal which prevented them from being compatible with both manufacturers version of the software, yet the software was the same. Do you know if these will work with Laserworld's Showeditor, circa 2009/2011? (The new Showeditor from 2015 uses a totally new DAC and connects via Ethernet rather than USB.)

    this is the website of the designer:http://lichtbastler.de/lumax/index.html
    these are the software packages compatible with these USB models: HE-Laserscan IV, Medialas Mamba v1.9, LDS 2009, Spaghetti, PC Dimmer 2008 as listed in the same web page.
    I personally have only used them with VVVV and they worked okay, but I mainly use Pangolin products, so...

    Thanks for checking. That leads me to think they may not work for Laserworlds Showeditior. I use mainly Pangolin as well but, I have a lot of shows for Showeditor - many multi-projector shows and only one DAC so I was giving it some consideration just to be able to see those shows.

    the funny thing is that "Laserworld" is actually screen printed on two of the circuit boards..!?

    Let me do some checking. I know the pres. of Laserworld USA quite well and I can get him to research it for me.

    the enclosure are self-made added by me, originally they weren't enclosed.
    I think these are the same boards used by Laserworld before the net version as I see from this picture:

    Actually.... here is a thought if you don't mind a few minutes of hassle. If you download this and try a test pattern, we'll know for sure: https://www.laserworld.com/en/suppor...l-version.html

    I have tried successfully with HE Laserscan 6 (2015 version), is that a software that you could import your shows? Or Lasershow Editor of 2009 could work with these DACs?
