Capture Visualisation Software

Save time with lighting design, documentation and visualization software that is both easy to learn and rewarding to use! Capture 2021™ is a native MacOS and Windows application that lets you work with the lighting, video, laser, moving scenery and water elements of a show. Capture 2021™ has been developed to enhance your design experience and help you stay on track while focusing on the work at hand.

Whether you're looking to create a simple 2D sketch or a full-blown 3D plot, Capture has you covered. Try as many fixtures as you need, at different hanging positions and with different colors or gobos. Adapt easily to any set design changes or sudden new restrictions. Do even more with Capture's impressive 3D model import capabilities and excellent integration with other lighting control and design products.

Bring lighting, media and motion into your visualization. Capture’s rendering engine features outstanding color accuracy and amazing performance, which will impress you right away! With a complete library of lighting fixtures, trussing, LED panels and video projectors you have everything you need to make your ideas come to life. When your design is complete you can render it to high quality image and video files. You can also export Capture's unique, stand-alone, presentations which deliver full interactivity with your design.

For Capture the focus has been on the core lighting design functionality of the software. Capture now introduces fixture groups and a new dedicated 'focus plane' tool. They have also improved on fixture data management in general. All this is put to use in the reworked report editor which now makes it possible to create virtually any type of report.

WHAT'S NEW IN CAPTURE 2021

For Capture 2021 the focus has been distributed equally among the three pillars of our product - design, documentation and visualisation. With the new polygon editor you can create more complex geometries within Capture. Improvements have been made to DWG handling. MVR import/export enhances interoparability with other systems. Plots and reports are now far more customisable. A line object and a ruler has been added to the library.

Special effects like flame Jets and CO₂ jets are now available so as to visualise all aspects of a show along with enhancements in camera handling and rendering framerates. Last but not least there are numerous new material properties that breathe life into your designs, like normal maps, metallic and roughness textures, and alpha channel support.
