It came up with the attached scripts.

Don't have a visualiser/venue to test.

Dear Ryan, thank You for your effort, but these shapes are not usable, they don't represent actual movements, unfortunately.

*edited videolink for fx movers

Hello, dear Dave and D-pro users. Unfortunately, recently I found out that ENTTEC has discontinued D-Pro support. That's very sad to me, because I have chosen it to be my main tool for controlling the lights. It still needs tweaks here and there and now I will be pointing them out. 1) It's about the...

I suppose, this could be achieved by adding parameter of oscillation progress for the moment when you trigger the movers cue, so you could change the position of oscillation starting point... where 0% - default position, and -100% or 100% - same position in previous/completed cycle... ?

Hello, dear developers and visitors of this forum! I would like to point out issues with D-Pro, that are holding me back from achieving desired results. Dave Brown is not responding in e-mails and on FB. Hope, he's ok. Really hope, that flippatspace, or someone else here will help me with this and f...

Ok forget the question again. Can easily be adjusted in the python script. adjusting the values in some of the scripts with more then 100% gives you really cool looking things :-D Dear flippatspace, can you, please give me your contact info, I need to ask you for help with scripts, since you know h...

I can send you such script if needed. Just contact me and I can guide you. would be also pretty cool to have some central place for scripts. something like the fixture library but for d-pro scripts. So we can share what everbody has in his installation. can you send me one too, please? djsolofeedba...

would you, please, be so kind to send some for me to djsolofeedback@gmail.com
Thank You...

Thanks, will try that
Wow! That actually helps to compose quite a lot!

Another thing: I've noticed that in order for cuelist not to skip and jump in time when switching from one cue to another, which is the only possible way to set cuepoints in song, the Speed has to be 120bpm (after each start of d-pro the cuelist behaves weird and skips and jumps music playback even ...

Done. And dave@db-audioware.com - this your correct e-mail, I suppose.

I have the same issue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iolxM_5fQVU - there are skips in playback when cursor reaches next cue, the cursor itself does not represent actual audio timing position correctly, and there is like a second delay after I push stop and audio actually stops... Windows 7x64, 8gb R...

Excuse me, what is your meaning of LTP? Ok, say the cue is executed, BUT as soon as next cue or palette in recorded show is triggered, that "dancers cue" will be released, no?

Ok, cool. Need your help again, my friends. Now I have a task to accomplish... Imagine a party, lightshow running, everything cool and neat... Now 2 sexy petit female dancers come up to the stage :shock: ... Now the task is to use let's say 2 scanners/moving heads (that were taking part in the light...

I'm totally agree with your point about the software prices and capabilities. I am a pro dj, and picked my first lighting control device and soft (DMXIS it was) only because of the features, that had first importance for me Honestly, I just googled request: words were something like: dmx, plugin, bp...

Yes! That helped! Now it's nice and smooth! THANK You, rad3d, A LOT

Dear rad3d, could you please guide me step by step how to hook this all up correctly to make it work? Which cc control are you talking about, what key point, what clip? Step by step guide, please..... :oops: I guessed there should be something under midi clip/envelopes/Midi Ctrl, but what parameter,...

My message is not intended to offend developers but to stimulate for better results and better product. Sorry for the narration style, just spent whole day trying to build-up working set-up, but still not getting desired outcome :ugeek: Been using ENTTEC software for a while... mostly DMXIS... now t...

Dave, why didn't you add these shapes to D-pro? Isn't it too few of them in arsenal of professional lighting control software? I don't mind having as many effects as possible

Go to Preferences > Remote Control. Click "learn new mapping". Transmit a MIDI CC to D-Pro. Choose Show Control: SET TEMPO (60-187 BPM) from the first drop-down list. Leave "Action parameter" blank. Now you can accurately set the tempo within the range 60-187 via that CC. - Yes,...

I'm not a DMIXS user, so I have to ask... what are the shapes that it has that are not in D-PRO? And are they Python scripts? Those are circle, diamond, figure 8, triangle, heartbeat, square, random. Yes, they are Python scripts... I've copied them to D-pro folder/macros/shapes, the program noticed...

DMXIS has more moving shapes (7) than D-Pro, (D-pro has only 3). How Can I get more moving fx scripts? Do you have any for me, please?
p.s. I'm not in to programming myself at alll )

this technique does not provide accurate results. I've used loopMIDI software to route signal into D-pro from ableton thru my midi keyboard, then mapped TAP TEMPO button to the note. Created looped midi clip in ableton with 2 recorded notes with 1/8 space between their start points (clip repeats eve...

It's been a while, why noone's answering?

Is it possible for D-pro to control more than 8 universes?

After installing this 64bit version experiencing dilemma in Ableton 9: noticed that in plugins section now appears 2 versions of it: DMXIS and DMXIS-inst. DMXIS loads to all channels (midi or audio), but if you load it to midi channel - you cant't route audio to it to activate sound tracker, and if ...

Does D-pro support Art-net II and Art-net III protocols and does it work with units over computer's ethernet port?

Of course you can. I use MIDI for control of all my encoders. Fades are smooth and perfect. MIDI is way more flexible than people give it credit for. Ok, I see what you mean, you generate an intense midi stream from audio signal, right? Could you please describe the way you do it in ableton? How do...

thanks for soft features explanation... now I'm seriously considering purchasing this expensive beast! 8-) You could set MIDI triggers in Ableton to match the track you want to trigger lights. Like, say every bass beat it would fire off a CC. Set a show control button in D-Pro to trigger off that, a...

Regarding audio triggering, I don't believe D-Pro handles it like you would want. However, you can drag audio tracks in to Cuelists and build the list to the waveform. Very handy. I hope enttec guys will implement it in D-pro, cause this "sound triggered" effect is imposible to "manu...
