Yes , I believe it will be really popular this year. I've been working on it for about 3 weeks now and hopefully can get it out by sunday .. if not, perhaps the next sunday :P - depends in the details and how i am feeling about the different parts. I know of 2 other sequencers doing this song...

As you have just started setting this up. I would very HIGHLY suggest you setup this star using the native star model in xlights and not the custom downloaded model you downloaded from the site. I just checked the downloaded file and if you wanted to replicate this using a native star model in...

Welcome to the hobby :) It will be worthwhile reaching out to those in Brisbane to have a chat and perhaps see a controller box etc and how it all connects.

Set the Shutter and Dimmer channel to 255. If no light comes out of them, then it means the bulb is off. So you will want to put a dmx effect and put the bulb channel (channel 16) to 205 for about 10 seconds. This will turn it on. Then it should show if you have Shutter and Dimmer channel to...

I have updated the post with details for reserving your spot, :)
