It all started making sense about 0500 this morning. The board is a fairly sophisticated device and it took a bit to get it into a usable state.

I had started out attempting to get sound to light to work. Looked easy. Not so much.

To use that feature one first has to assign DMX channels to sliders. Then set up memories 9-12 for the scene ( or submaster as someone else here called them ) that will represent each frequency range. Each of these operations is actually rather intuitive - once you know you need to look for them.

Once that's done, plug in some audio and turn on sound-to-light. Works like a charm.

I still have a lot to learn about it, but I'm in good shape for this weekend. I'm taking lights to a sci-fi con in Houston and what we'll need is pretty basic.
