Yeah, We'll just have to go static and window projection.

They are MaxFX AIC 167 4 channel DMX dimmer packs. My wife is just looking on the internet something about using a dummy load that might fix it, but others are saying it is a bad idea.

Unfortunately, I was under the impression that dimmer packs would actually turn lights plugged into them, completely off. Just tested the dimmer packs we bought with our rope lights and it is a total fail. Set at 0, they blink until about 8. between 8 and 255 there isn't a great deal of...

Thanks for the Welcome everybody.

I think I've worked it out, just testing. I created a virtual controller and linked both channel 13 and rgb channel 1 (1,2,3). Not sure if that's the right way, but it seems to be working.

I have a 13 channel dmx led stage (4) lights I got from China. The instruction manual was sparse and not very clear. They weren't working very well until I placed the 13th channel on another controller in LSP. Now I have 4 RGB channels on the first controller in LSP and the 13th on another...

Just to report back, all went well.

Thanks ѕυρєямαη. That clears it up perfectly. LOL I feel less stressed now.

Hi, completely new to this. I need to solder a female xlr 3 pin socket onto a cat5 cable to go into my stage lights. In the diagram here: http://auschristmaslighting.com/wiki/Connector_Pinouts, it shows the 3 pin female socket with pin 1 being on the left. On the socket I have, it shows pin 1...

Have you tried to create a new simple sequence with one or 2 lights. The larger the project the more things that could go wrong, both hardware and sequencing bugs. Just a suggestion, I'm only new.

Thanks AAH. I looked at Vixen, but it doesn't support syncing to a video which is something I want to incorporate as I don't have many lights to start with. I've downloaded the trial version and it seems to do what I want, although I haven't physically tried it with lights yet. This year, just...

Really, really new to this, so not sure if this is more of a hardware question, but I've decide on Light Show Pro. Which USB dmx dongle is recommended for use with the software? Can any usb dmx controller be used?

I'll probably go with Light Show Pro.

Hi, Just new to the world of light shows. Just wondering if there is a free (or at least cheap) program to sync lights with a video? The only one I could find that could do it was VenueMagic, but it's about $600. Thanks in advance.

Thanks Kel.
