Re: Wireless and dmxis advice

That's great!

I just bought the Donner rechargeable wireless dmx system with enough receivers for most of my lights. Will see how that goes and maybe consider doing the internal version at a later stage.
Thank you Neil!

Re: Wireless and dmxis advice

Thanks Neilnotts.

Will the transmitter for these be compatible with fixtures that already have wireless dmx built into the fixture as the fixture I am looking at adding do not have physical dmx connections?

Wireless and dmxis advice

Hi. I am in process of doing some research into replacing some of my dmx lights to wireless fixtures. I am looking at adding the Chauvet Freedom Sticks into my current setup. Although the Freedom Sticks are dmx, they are only wireless dmx. My other lights however are not wireless. What is best way t...

Re: Light cues not lined up?

Thanks Dave.

The main issue is for me to be able to create accurate lighting cues blind (without having to set my lights up all the time) for moments where need all fixtures to change exactly on an accent.

Re: Copy/Paste on Mac OSX?

I would MUCH prefer a regular copy/paste feature over the existing ctrl and drag for lighting cues. This can be real time consuming on long tracks and often the highlighted tracks become un highlighted meaning you have to start the process all over again. This would greatly increase my workflow and ...

Re: Presets, search and remove unused

I too would second this feature. I have loads of DMXIS presets I do not use in Showbuddy and to be able to quickly identify them would make life much easier to delete any unnecessary ones.

Re: Got any YouTube videos of your shows?

Thanks Chris. My motto with any new fixture I buy has to have 'maximum bang for buck' due to these reasons: 1) Space needed to set them up and position (would rather set up less fixtures that do MORE) 2) As I do not carry a roadie I have to transport, carry and set up on my own. I always ask myself ...

Re: Show Buddy timing errors in 1.4.2

I get this intermittent error message when I jump to a song out of sequence of the playlist or if I bring up the song library while I have a playlist open. It comes up when I hit the foot switch to start the song.
