## What is LX ToolBox?

LX ToolBox – Practical tools for lighting techs, touring crews & designers

LX ToolBox is a purpose-built toolkit for lampies, lighting designers, programmers, and stage professionals. Designed for real-world use on site and on the road, it puts essential lighting, power, rigging, and show-control tools in one fast, reliable app.
