  2. Sound Activated Mode:

    The light reacts to ambient sound via its built-in microphone. Patterns and colors change in sync with music or sound. Sensitivity can often be adjusted in the menu.

    Connect multiple LS10 units via DMX cables. Set one unit as "Master" and others as "Slave". The slave units will mirror the master's operation, creating synchronized effects. Ensure all units are set to the correct mode.

  5. Strobe Mode:

    This mode produces rapid flashes of light. Strobe speed can typically be adjusted.
