This is a short list of topics that I thought we could discuss at the mini. Some topics may drop off depending on the audience knowledge level.

Thoughts please on more or other topics.


Tools of the trade for year one enthusiast
Where to Buy From (Links, online, local shops and AU & OS suppliers)
Types of Lights (5v vs. 12v debate)
Types of controllers (E31, Pixel, DMX)
P10 Panels. How do you make them go? (Beagle Bone)
Xlights & Vixen software
Running your show (PC or Pi)
FM Transmitters
Display Models (Buy vs building your own)

I'll be there, for sure. Get ready to answer all the novice questions. Looks to be well covered in by the topics list (but what would I know). Cheers

Mushroom. This is the exact reason for the Mini's, so we can teach others and share the knowledge. You will learn lots in a very short time frame but it won't be anything that you can't refer back to at a later date. My first Mini was only last year but it was the best use of time in the whole year.

Have you got any pixel gear yet?
