Mamba 2.0 V2.5 Now Comes with 35+ Free Laser Shows!
The new Mamba 2.0 laser show software is
now available in updated version 2.5!
Overview:
Many things have changed since the last release of Mamba Black software, and we are pleased to announce, that Mamba 2.0 has
been drastically changed in the internal code, but stays the same in the user interface, for full
downwards compatibility. Many code segments have been rewritten and replaced by entirely new and fast code. Many new powerful features have been added, including an entirely new look to the multiple user interface skins. The user has the ability to chose from more than
50 predefined skins, while the basic layout of Mamba stays the same.
Based on the well known and top selling Mamba Black software, Mamba 2.0 continues with the same ease of use, the same style of handling arrangement, and full downward compatibility, but many new, exciting and powerful features!

+ DMX512 Control On Timeline
The new DMX features allows to place unlimited events on the timeline. Each event controls up to 16 DMX channels at the same time, each timeline holds maximum of 512 channels, and can be routed to any
MediaLas USB interface that is connected to the computer. This means 512 channels PER interface! Four interfaces, 4x 512 channels – 4x independent lines of DMX 512 each! Of course, you can use DMX parallel to your existing laser show programming.
There is no need for a separate DMX interface. The MediaLas HyperPort
interface already
offers a DMX port. USB-Boxes from V1 to V4 support 192 DMX channels, USB-Box
V5 or higher supports 512DMX channels. USB-Boxes from V3 can be updated to V6.
The actual
HyperPort Pro Interface supports full 512 DMX channels plus full ILDA laser
signals.
+ Design Rule Check
If you are an experienced show designer, you will love to hear about this exciting feature! If you are an inexperienced show designer, you will simply NEED it!
DRC will check your show for any inconsistancy, collisions of effects, gaps between frames on the timeline, and much more, and will give you an enhanced feedback of possible errors. By simply klicking on the error, your cursor jumps to the error position. It is your choice then, to fix the error, or to see it as an artistic effect.
The sensibility of the check can be adjusted to personal taste or levels.
+ Fast and Easy Effect Creation
The effect editor of Mamba 2.0 works as simple as well known video cutting software. Simple rotators set the rotation of an effect, simple movement areas show the moving of the objects, placed on the timeline. It is as simple as that!
+ Variable Skins
A major feature of this update is the user adaptable skin, to change the look and feel of your Mamba 2.0 drastically to your personal choice. More than
50 ready-to-go skins are included, and the user is able to design his own skin and color layout.
 
+ Enhanced LAN Interfacing
Mamba 2.0 leads forward in LAN interfacing of your projector. The new LAN interface and playback card,
"NetPort", allows integration in existing projectors, and eliminates all analog control signal wires to your projector. A simple CAT 5 LAN cable will do! And it´s more than that: Interface multiple independent projectors to one LAN line, by simply using a standard low-cost network switch – up to
255 projectors on one LAN line!
No fragile adaptors, no external boxes, no analog signal cables.
+ Automatic Playlist
This tool is just at the beginning of it´s creation, and therefore is quite simple at this time. We will work on this for one of the next updates. The user
creates his own playlist, which automatically loads all shows in a playback sequence. This is very important for trade shows, promotion or advertising displays.
The list can be looped, to play continously.
+ Live! interface for multiple projectors
With the existing Live! interface of Mamba Black, one laser projector was installed for playback. Mamba 2.0 now offers unlimited projector mapping, while each projector holds one independent cue list. Furthermore, the Midi-interfacing was greatly revised.
+ Automatic screen dimmer
The automatic screen dimmer, if activated in the settings, dims the screen after pressing the play button for a laser show. Brightness is significantly reduced for less disturbing ambient light in dark studios or demo rooms.
