    Default cheap DMX ilda interfaces?

    Are there any analog dmx ilda playback interfaces from china that work with SD card that can have frames triggered over DMX?
    I never see any interfaces sold seperate unless its already inside a product...

    Looking for such an interface as a sidestep interface for using just simple effects on a laser without the full control..
    All I've really found was https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10000234815474.html which has it's mcu potentially on the galvo board which isn't very helpfull.. the price aint too bad but I bet it can be cheaper!

    Cheap is key because i'm looking into the ~12 piece count with these for home use.. not on show use.

    These board are not ideal. I recall reading somewhere that you'll have to bake-in the blankshift / colorshift into the show file.

    There are stand-alone arduino and pi initiatives out there, not sure if you want to go that route.

    I have stacks of orangepi's so i could go that route if not too involved.

    John Laughlin at Technological Artisans just imported a few cased units for a tour where the LD wanted very simple controls. SD card with RGB. He may have a few spares.
