Aputure launches Sidus Link Pro 2.0

The new Aputure app is a smarter and faster way to control your LED lighting

Aputure has unveiled Sidus Link Pro 2.0, a powerful upgrade to its professional lighting control platform, now optimised for iPad. Designed to deliver console-level performance without the complexity, the new version introduces time-saving features and an intuitive interface aimed at film, TV and live production professionals.

At the heart of the update is Aputure Auto-Patching and Auto-Configuration, a major innovation that slashes setup time by automatically adding and configuring Aputure lights – no manual DMX addressing or profile selection needed. A typical 30-light DMX setup can now be completed in moments.

Additional updates include precise 0.1% dimming, advanced pixel-level control and expanded real-time feedback through Sidus Four integration. Users can now monitor port connectivity, receive power loss notifications, and manage both Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections remotely.

A new Sidus BT View Mode supports Bluetooth-only workflows. More details aputure.com.
