Default Re: Why is intelligent lighting "dumb" on an ETC Lightboard

When using movers on a ETC Express line, groups, subs, and macros are your friends. Don't forget you can also still set channels between HTP or LTP and turn on Independent mode in the Channel Attributes menu in Setup (11). Those few things help. Focus Points help as well, though they are just groups with a different name.

5-10 Macs though, would look into renting a console at that point as others have stated already. That's quite a lot to do on an Express line. If using an Expression 3, it will be easier. An Insight 3 would be the best thanks to 1080 subs, 10 pages of 108 per page. I would strongly suggest going with a moving light console if you don't have ample time to program.
