@MTT I made an assumption that since you were on this site, that you have downloaded and read through the 101 manual. You can find it on the home page in the banner under the home icon. It is a good read to get you up to speed to many parts of the hobby. This will save you have from having to...

Alternatives to LOR for AC include Renard controllers and there were two complete boxes for sale at doityourselfchristmas.com earlier today for very reasonable money. Looks like they are spoken for but you can keep your eyes out over there and find some good gear. A somewhat inexpensive way to...

If you don't know @dirknerkle or his work...he is a prolific inventor from the early 200x and 201x who was mainly working with incandescent and LED string controllers. Most had been adapted for some version of wifi. (I think he said that in post #1) Here are two avenues to documentation (I...

First thing I would do is read or watch about the visualizer. It looks like the config was mostly done using the process from a few years ago. I see a couple of controllers that use the visualizer. You should try to use for all controllers/props that you can. The reason is that it is easier to...

Yes.

I couldn't find one but registration is painless and free at diychristmas.org.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

Like this one? https://www.christmasalight.com.au/santa-fishing-in-boat-rope-light-motif~7870 Just rip off the rope light and put some seed pixels on them.

Welcome JP122424! This site and doityourselfchristmas.com should be top of the list for DIY stuff. There are lots of cool prepackaged stuff that is coming out but you will find that people on these forums are very inventive. I don't do facebook but there is a lot of activity there as well...

I have MJ mix.zip from 2015. IM me your email and I will send it over.

Is there a controller on each set?

If you have 5V pixels, do not connect them to 12V. The Falcon will not convert 12v to 5v to power the pixels. You need a 5V power source to power 5v pixels. 5V power injection is typically every 100 (50 in both directions). By turning down the intensity, you can get more. You need to test it.

You have a couple of forum friendly suppliers in Australia and then direct from china (aliexpress) and last buy from amazon (some of the amazon sellers are the same suppliers "we" use).

Yes, this. Did you use the visualizer and upload the controller configs?

I don't have a Falcon but shouldn't there be multiple DMX outputs. Where does port 3 tie to the listed DMX?
