User Reviews

Users find Light Rider Classic has a strong manual interface and good potential when functioning properly, but suffer from significant issues including device compatibility problems, frustrating update demands with no available updates, lack of key feature support like RGBW and Ableton Link, and restrictive hardware licensing. Reliability concerns and glitches disrupt live use, and the vendor's hardware lock-in disappoints many.
Pros
  • The app has a useful manual interface once figured out, considered better than many smart interfaces.
  • Works well in certain conditions when compatible with the device and updated properly.
  • Potential for integration with good hardware and useful features when fully functional.
  • App has useful lighting control features, including some color chase effects.
  • The hardware integration is appreciated by some users, making the app valuable when working correctly.
Cons
  • Compatibility issues with various Android devices, especially large screen phones and some recent models.
  • Frequent update problems: app demands updates that are not available, causing crashes and unusability.
  • Limited support for features like RGBW (white channel) and Ableton Link on Android platforms.
  • Hardware and license restrictions: need to buy their hardware and licenses to use third-party devices, which is frustrating and costly.
  • App is glitchy and unreliable at times, causing failures during critical usage like live events.

Once you figure this interface out it's way more useful than most "smart" interfaces. Manually this is the best there is in my opinion. I want to figure out a way to get audio input to my Amazon Fire surface to do more. I currently have Soundswitch One as well as the Chauvet 512s. I put this controller (My DmxGo) at the top of the list.
