Compact DMX Control with Full-scale Functionality!

The Chauvet Obey 70 DMX lighting controller offers you the convenient portability of a compact controller with many of the advanced functions you'd only expect from a full-sized lighting board. With 14 reversible faders onboard, you can easily take control of up to 12 intelligent lights and 384 channels of DMX with the Obey 70. A total of 30 banks of eight instantly selectable scenes lets you set up complex shows, and a set of six chase effects controls makes adding energy to your shows easy. Top it all off with fog and strobe control, beat activation, an assignable pressure-sensitive joystick, and more, and it's no wonder the Chauvet Obey 70 has DJs everywhere talking.

Chauvet Obey 70 DMX Lighting Controller at a Glance:
  • Compact enough for a mobile rig, powerful enough for theatre
  • All of the hands-on controls you need to create memorable shows on the fly
  • Advanced controls let you operate strobe fixtures and fog machines
Compact enough for a mobile rig, powerful enough for theatre

You don't need to cart around a large-format lighting board to create an impressive light show anymore, thanks to the compact yet flexible Chauvet Obey 70. With its extended feature set, not only does the Obey 70 let you control a multitude of simple fixtures, it also lets you get the most out of intelligent lights. What's more, you can setup complex chase effects a up to 240 entire lighting scenes before your show, making it easy to jump from one entire configuration to the next.

All of the hands-on controls you need to create memorable shows on the fly

If you've ever dealt with a minimalist lighting controller, then you already know how frustrating it can be to try to make changes on the fly without enough hands-on controls to tweak your lights effectively. Chauvet's Obey 70 controller makes this easy by providing you with 14 dedicated faders, an assignable XY joystick, and more than enough buttons to jump between scenes, trigger chases, and edit deeper functions on the fly. You'll be amazed by how easy it is to sit down at the Obey 70 and create a truly impressive light show.

Advanced controls let you operate strobe fixtures and fog machines

It's easy to add your advanced lighting gear into your Obey 70 rig, if you have a Chauvet strobe fixture or fog machine. These typically come equipped with special control ports (a 1/4" jack for strobes and a proprietary DIN for fog machines), which let you plug right into your lighting controller to make them part of your show. On top of that, the Obey 70 features MIDI input, which lets you sync your scenes and other events with your DJ software, DAW, or other MIDI sequencer.

Chauvet Obey 70 DMX Lighting Controller Features:
  • A compact 3-pin DMX lighting controller than provides many full-scale lighting board functions
  • 14 reversible faders and an assignable joystick allow for easy fixture programming
  • Support for up to 12 intelligent lighting fixtures
  • Provides up to 384 channels of DMX control
  • Store 30 banks of 8 scenes for a maximum of 240 scenes
  • Enhance light shows with 6 sets of chase effects containing 240 scenes
  • Chauvet fog machine and strobe fixture control onboard
  • Beat activation, tap-sync, and auto run provide extra show options
  • Assignable pressure-sensitive XY joystick gives you a more intuitive grasp on lighting fixtures
  • Grab any fixture on the fly, reassign channels, and sequentially link chases
  • MIDI compatibility lets you integrate your lighting rig with your DAW or sequencer
  • 4U rackmountable chassis makes this an ideal lighting controller for mobile rigs
Take control of your lighting rig with the Chauvet Obey 70 DMX controller!

Reviews

Excelent dmx controller!
very easy to program, each of my dj has one in his dj setup. Adenad we have used it to program shows in theaters and it has been a success.
Music background: Dj pro since 1987, audio and music production engineer.
it will do more then they say
I have had two of them and that's because some wanted the first one more than me. Like I said it works very good with Chauvet's wireless transmitter's and receiver's and run more fixtures then they say. they say you need to run a wire to the first one and daisy chain the rest. You do have to follow the DMX addressing but that's not a problem. You can't hurt it or your lights hook them up and just see what they can do the worst that can happen is they won't come on. We use the Obey 70 for smaller shows and Show express for the larger ones. I'm sure there might be better equipment out there but I'm a firm believer in Chauvet lighting. If this one goes missing, I will get another one
Great little light board
We've been using a MicroPlex board the last 20 years and it finally died! I ordered this board and some ADJ Dimmers and it's the perfect setup for our little room. It's easy to program and so far we've had no issues or complaints!

"Outstanding "
Read manual first, before using this DMX controller, then plug your lighting equipment, set it up and in less than 15-20 mins later, you are creating crazy magic show, lots of professional DJ's and other artists spent thousands and thousands of dollars on heavy equipment, but no need when you have the OBEY 70 384-Ch from Chauvet, easy to use and set up out of the box, no regrets just pure satisfaction no kidding, I definitely recommend it to everyone who wants to create an amazing atmosphere on your next show. Thnx @ Sweetwater.com and all staff members!

I have really enjoyed learning about the Obey 70 Controller. Sweetwater's Stuart Niven suggested this controller and he was spot on. It's easy and made with great quality.

What Do Our In-house Gear Experts Think?
Jack Quigley
The Obey 70 is awesome! I love how easy it is to program scenes and chases, and being able to control it via MIDI lets me keep my focus where it matters. I definitely recommend it for anyone who needs powerful lighting control in a portable package.

Sweetwater lighting techs, DJs, and musicians alike have the deepest respect for Chauvet, both on the personal and on the professional side. Many of us first became acquainted with Chauvet before LED technology caught on, and it's been impressive to see their range of fixtures grow. Today, Chauvet offers some of our most popular LED lights, from drop-in PAR replacements and intelligent lighting instruments to exciting effects, foggers, haze machines, and more. We also love their innovation. Chauvet has brought LED technology to classic fixtures like ellipsoidal and Fresnels, while their D-Fi system has made wireless DMX truly accessible. Top it off with powerful hardware controllers, next-gen DMX control software, and much more, and we're happy to recommend the Chauvet gear we not only stock but also use ourselves.
