Behrenger LC2412 Tutorial?

[David Ashton]

As you are the only person I have heard of who understands this thing perhaps you should produce a video to explain it to all the mugs who bought one,[at that price how could I go wrong?]
I can have students record a scene, a stack and a chase on an Innovator, or an Elation Showmaster, or equivalent in 20 minutes, or a teacher in half an hour.
After finally giving up on my Behringer, I found out there was a software fault on the early batch I bought anyway.I really feel they should stick with sound or only sell to people with physics degrees.

Scene 1: takes place in Lighting supply shop.

Customer: How much is that Behringer lighting board thing on the shelf?

Sales Guy: its $299 if you can provide documentary proof that you have at least a batchelors degree in physics and you have to sign a release absolving us from all responsibility after you have read this "User Warning" card.

I own six DMX control consoles, 3 are small like the Behringer and 3 are larger like ETC Express, Insight plus a Compulite Micron 4D. The other two small boards are a Chauvet Scene setter 48 and a Lightronics Tl 5024.
I build and repair a number of DMX controlled items, and the Behringer sits on my work bench to test DMX devices. It is really a shame, the Behringer had some pretty good ideas in the layout, but who ever wrote the software has never done lighting, it is unbelievably HORRID. The amazing thing is that Behringer is very well known for copying other manufactures, with no regard to creative license. Why didn't they copy the software of Lightronics, Chauvet, NSI or Leprecaun, that have similar consoles?

I have the same board I use for small portable shows. I admit it can be alittle confusing at first but I been able to do several shows using the scene memory banks without issues.

Anyone feel like writing up a manual then?

+1 for this board being a massive failure.
I had one placed in front of me this week, took it home, read the manual, took it to work, read the manual. Tried many differnt things and just could not get it to be useable. Took it back to to person who put it in front of me & suggested they get their money back.

But do you have a degree or 2 in physics?

No, but I can level a character from 1-80 in World of Warcraft inside 2 weeks!
Does that count?

[lightman02]

What exactly are you trying to do that you are having such a problem with?? I would love to help if I can, once again I will not say this board is a good board but it's usable and I have gotten results out of it.

And you're in theatre...? Sorry, I think that only means you have absolutely no life.

Very admirable though!
