Hey all,
So I'm looking to get into pixels in 2013. I'm starting now in January because I'm going to make a pretty big plunge I think. Thinking about 12 wire/stick trees with 300 pixels each and a megatree with 48 strands of 50 pixels. By my math, that is 3600 + 2400 = 6000 pixels, which is 18,000 channels right? The other option I'm still considering is to run the wire/stick trees as dumb RGB which would greatly cut down on my number of channels.
I have been a LOR user since 2005 and I can't seem to find a channel limit in the S3 software. I see that LSP has an 8192 channel limit in the $249 advanced version and you have to go to the $399 version to get more channels. Considering I have a license to S3 already and it seems to have unlimited channels (completely unsure if this is correct), I'm having a tough time with moving to LSP, but it seems like most of y'all really like this software.
I guess if I go with advanced then I am committing to running the wire/stick trees as dumb setups.
Any guidance is appreciated.
