[QUOTE="scamper, post: 98870, member: 22285"] I started by buying a couple rolls of led strip, a dongle and a power supply. I downloaded vixen3 and xlights and had a play, settled on Vixen, then started to sequence. To start with I did the Pixar intro, and once I saw it run, I was hooked. went strait for a mega tree and fence line window line and a few other modified strings onto traditional trees. My ambition was only let down by my funding. The first year was all dumb strips because of cost. but then the price of pixels dropped and so my mega tree has been redone in pixels and the dumb strips are slowly getting replaced, I then use them for different areas in the show just to add more light. So what I am saying is, get yourself a couple strings of lights, a power supply, a board to run them and some software and start sequencing to get the feel, then as you research you will come up with ideas which you can then add to your display, prioritise what you want and start with that. Have a look in the buy and sell section on here, [URL]https://auschristmaslighting.com/threads/various-controllers.11120/#post-98843[/URL] Mathew bought a heap of gear off Kane (did a display in Trigg) and is selling a fair bit of it, so may be able to help out on some stuff. anyway, good luck.

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
