HARMAN Professional Solutions announced the immediate availability of Martin P3 System Controller Software 6.2.0, featuring the powerful P3 Visualizer Protocol.
Designed to integrate seamlessly into the Martin P3 ecosystem, this new update significantly enhances the visualisation capabilities and delivers an unmatched level of workflow efficiency.
The all-new P3 Visualizer Protocol enables lighting designers, programmers, and system technicians to integrate third-party 3D-visualisation software with the Martin P3 System Controller, creating an end-to-end solution.
By enabling real-time sharing of comprehensive fixture data – including video pixels, patch details, and more – visualisers are now able to flawlessly replicate real-world fixtures, whether driven by lighting consoles, P3 controllers, or both simultaneously. This integration creates unparalleled design flexibility and shortens the path from creative concept to show-ready execution.
Designed for ultimate ease-of-use, the software’s plug-and-play functionality simplifies setup, allowing immediate integration with compatible visualisation tools.
Leading visualisation software provider Capture has already incorporated the P3 Visualizer Protocol into its Capture 2025 software, marking the first implementation of this transformative feature. Martin actively encourages further collaborations, making this open protocol available to all visualisation software developers.
“Our mission is always to provide our design and programming community with the most intuitive tools to translate their visions into unforgettable experiences,” said Wouter Verlinden, Product Manager, Creative LED, Lighting and Control.
“By integrating real-time 3D visualisation, we’re expanding creative possibilities much further. This new capability eliminates guesswork, greatly accelerates the creative process, and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with our partners.”
Available immediately and at no cost, Martin’s P3 System Controller Software 6.2.0 extends compatibility to the entire range of Martin’s P3 System Controllers, including P3-050, P3-150, P3-175, P3-275, and P3-300.
It is also available as free P3-PC System Controller software, allowing professionals to access these advanced visualisation enhancements without any additional hardware investment.
