Adapted from PIXELHUE product materials The PIXELHUE U5 Mini is an ultra-compact, high-end event controller developed for small and midsize events where operating space is limited. Its customizable controls, tactile button layout, flexible power options, and integrated display system provide fast and precise access to essential show-control functions. Lightweight enough for mobile operators and freelancers, the U5 Mini can be transported easily and deployed within minutes. The T-Bar model provides fine manual control of transition effects while maintaining the compact footprint and streamlined workflow of the U5 Mini platform. Its fanless architecture supports silent operation with low power consumption and fewer internal components.

Full Show Control, Without the Full-Size Console

The PIXELHUE U5 Mini T-Bar brings fast, tactile event control to productions where space, setup time, and portability matter.

Designed for small and midsize live events, corporate AV, touring productions, flypacks, streaming environments, and compact control rooms, the U5 Mini gives operators direct physical control of screens, layers, sources, presets, and transitions without requiring a large-format console.

The T-Bar version adds precise, hands-on transition control for operators who want to manually shape fades and other transition effects. Its streamlined layout, industrial-grade buttons, and dual LCD displays keep essential controls visible and within reach when the show is moving quickly.

At just 380 mm wide and approximately 2.4 kg, the U5 Mini T-Bar can travel in a backpack or compact production case. Multiple power options, dual Ethernet connections, automatic device discovery, and PIXELHUE PixelFlow integration help reduce setup time and keep the control position clean.

Because the doors are still going to open, even when the control room is the size of a folding table.

Built for PIXELHUE Workflows

The U5 Mini can control one compatible PIXELHUE presentation switcher at a time and automatically discover devices connected to the same local network. Operators can select screens, work with layers, change sources, recall presets, and execute Take, Cut, fade, or manual T-Bar transitions directly from the control surface.

Built-in Companion compatibility also allows the controller to operate supported third-party devices, helping consolidate multiple production functions into one centralized workflow. PIXELHUE specifies switcher firmware version 1.7.0 or later and Companion version 4.2.0 or later.
