This is the heart of the family. For many users, an LD2000 system is all they need to produce high-quality, client-pleasing shows. LD2000 comes with the following software and hardware:

The LD2000 software and hardware is available in three levels, depending on how many features you need:
LD2000 Professional, $4995. Our top-level laser software. This version includes the greatest number of features, and also includes LivePRO, Lasershow Converter FLASH and Lasershow Converter 4D.
LD2000 Basic, $2495. Most of the power of LD2000 Pro, but with reduced 3D frame creation capabilities and reduced colors. Also includes Lasershow Converter FLASH and Lasershow Converter 4D.
LD2000 Intro, $1495. Most economical choice, but still retaining a lot of capability from its higher-priced counterparts.
Prices subject to change without notice. See price list page for current pricing.
Pangolin sells other lasershow products. Some require LD2000 to work; others are standalone products such as the Flashback 3 embedded laser projector controller card. Each of our products is designed to help laserists produce the best and most advanced shows.
Laser show graphics are usually outline drawings -- also called "vector images". These are eye-catching, as they are very different from standard raster computer graphics. The four programs below let you convert computer graphics into laser vector images. This can save time, improve quality, and allow a non-laser artist to create shows.

Lasershow Converter MAX: Converts Autodesk 3ds Max graphics and animations to laser
Lasershow Converter MAX LITE: Lower-cost version of LC MAX; great as a workstation for MAX owners Lasershow Converter FLASH: Converts Adobe Flash graphics and animations to laser Lasershow Converter 4D: Converts Cinema 4D graphics and animations to laser |
As mentioned above, the main LD2000 software suite includes cue-triggering software called Live!. This lets you use the computer keyboard to play back effects, scenes, songs and complete shows. If you need more power, Pangolin has two add-on products designed specifically for nightclubs, raves and other intensive live performance venues.
LivePRO software: An advanced visual synthesizer with 1700 cues that can be changed, layered and played live, in realtime. LivePRO is included free with LD2000 Professional. Users of LD2000 Basic and LD2000 Intro can purchase LivePRO as an extra add-on. | |
Lasershow Performer hardware console: A button box with programmable knob. Its easier and more fun to use Lasershow Performer to control Live! or LivePRO, instead of using a standard computer keyboard. |
LIGHT CONVERSE is a program that does real time photorealistic rendering of lights, trusses, staging, and now lasers. Professional users will enjoy the ability to show clients mock stages of how their laser shows will look along with other multimedia content.
Now you can visualize the output of all LD2000 programs (including customer-written programs that use the LD2000 SDK) through the third-party visualization program LIGHT CONVERSE. |
Lasershow Timecode TC2000 SMPTE controller: Read and write SMPTE timecode, for use with other AV and production equipment. |
|
|
DMX controller boards: As mentioned above, the LD2000 software suite can control lighting and theatrical equipment using DMX-512 devices, including decoder and controller boards to output DMX512 signals. |
Interactive Messaging Unlimited software and cellular modem: Get incoming SMS messages into your computer, and see them projected live. This highly sophisticated system filters and processes messages, and outputs approved messages through either laser or video output. Although IMU is most popular for video applications, the laser output is still available for projects such as writing SMS messages at a trade show or on the side of a mountain. |
An LD2000 system can be used to create and playback shows. However, many users only need playback capability. These hardware devices can be put near or in a laser projector. Unskilled operators can easily play shows in this way.

Flashback 3 OEM laser controller: A credit-card sized board using a Compact Flash card to store lasershow data and music files. Designed primarily to be built into projectors. |
QM2000.NET laser controller: Need to control many projectors at once? Or want to run Lasershow Designer 2000 software on your notebook? The QM2000.NET box includes a QM2000 playback board and an interface to standard computer networks. You can place laser projectors far away from a central LD2000 controller, and send signals down the network to QM2000.NET boxes. Some clients have remotely controlled over a dozen remote projectors in this way. You can also create and play back LD2000 shows using notebook computers (since they dont have slots for the QM2000 board, but they do have network connectors). |
Lasershow Designer 2000 software has been in continuous development since 1986. There are a lot of specialized routines we have created, to control laser beams and graphics. This highly optimized code is at the heart of all Pangolin laser programs.
The LD2000 Software Development Kit (SDK) gives you access to laser-specific routines. This lets you create your own custom application. Some example uses include industrial laser systems for alignment, scientific systems for 3D visualization using vector graphics, and even gaming. (At SIGGRAPH 2007, Pangolin software was used to project laser versions of classic vector videogames such as Asteroids, Battlezone and Tempest.) |
Discoscan wide-angle scanning system: Use this to project laser beams in a circle or anywhere in a sphere (like a laser disco mirror ball). Best used for nightclubs and similar venues outside the U.S. where audience scanning is more common. |
