Found Ravers Co NZ through Instagram and glad I did! I’ve been struggling with cheap DMX interfaces for my lights for ages. This USB-to-DMX with the FTDI chipset is a night and day difference. Got the 5m USB-to-DMX female cable. Connects seamlessly with Freestyler DMX and the 26AWG wire feels sturdy. Exactly what I needed for solid, reliable lighting control at events.

Bought this 1.8m USB-to-DMX female adapter as a gift for a friend in NL. It arrived within the 10-15 day estimate, which was good. My friend said setting up the DMX dongle took a tiny bit longer than expected to get the drivers sorted, but the FT232RL + SP485 chipset seems robust once it was running. Just a slight learning curve. Might have gotten the 3m instead of 1.8m if I knew their setup better.

Been meaning to get a proper RS485 adapter for my home studio setup, and this one from Ravers Co NZ fits the bill. The long-distance transmission claim is no joke; tested it across my space and it held up. Worked perfectly with Windows 11 right out of the box. Just wish the product image showed the specific cable length variant a bit clearer, but still solid.

Saved up for this and it’s totally worth it. The microprocessor enabled design really ensures dependable performance. No issues at all for my smaller rave setups. So good! 💖

Finally pulled the trigger on a decent DMX512 interface for my birthday. Got the 3m USB-to-DMX male cable from YIDAMA-TONGLE. The FTDI chipset is known for reliability, and it’s proven true. Plugged it into my Linux box and it just worked for my stage lights. The PVC jacket on the cable feels really durable too, not flimsy at all.

Saw a setup video using a similar USB-to-DMX and decided to grab this one. So glad I did! Super stable performance for my small lighting setup. Simple, effective. ✨

OMG this USB to DMX adapter saved my butt! Had a last-minute gig in Tokyo and needed a reliable interface for my lighting rig. Got the 5m USB-to-DMX male cable. The FTDI chipset is legit, it connected instantly with Freestyler DMX software on my laptop. Super stable, no dropouts at all during the entire set. Worth every NZD $64.99 for that peace of mind.

Been eyeing this USB to DMX / RS485 adapter for my VJ work for weeks. Needed something with broad compatibility for my macOS setup. The 1m USB-to-DMX female version works great. Shipping took about 14 days to NL, which was within the range. Only reason for 4 stars is I had to find a specific macOS driver that wasn’t immediately obvious, but it performs well now.
