Are there any other ADJ MyDMX software users in the Dallas, TX area? I would love to see how someone else programs LED sequences/effects.

I'm using an outdated Virtuoso DX2 console and I'm trying to patch some cheap Chauvet Par Tri LED fixtures, but I have no Chauvet profiles in my fixture library. I tried using another 3-channel RGB profile (ColorKinetic ColorBlast 12 profile), but the instruments aren't liking it. Any...

with all that being said, just go for a different instrument, like a Fresnel or S4 Parnel

I am looking to buy several p28s Medium Prefocus Ceramic Bases... anyone know of a physical store (somewhere other than the internet) that carries these? If not, I'll take suggestions for websites too.

I have a pretty simple question that hopefully one of you can help me with... what does SA stand for on the end of a lamp identification, i.e. NSH300SA Want I want to know really, is what the is difference between an NSH300 and a NSH300SA. Is it an adapter thing, color temp, or what...

apparently this issue has been solved. Lindsey Glover is awesome. Thanks!

as stated in the title, I'm using Elation's Design Brick 70 LED fixtures and an Element 60 console (not the best console for multi-parameter instruments, but it is what it is.) Also, we are configured to run in 11-channel mode. Set up as a "moving light" (multi-parameter) instead of using...

The Lectern is on stage left but our speaker (an emphatic methodist preacher) moves like a caged and hungry lion, back and forth, so "the shot" is essentially everything we have on stage. And I just might be the next one crucified if I mess up that brand new floor.

I will try to explain my task to the best of my ability, but without measurements and angles to reference, we'll have to speak theoretically and see if we can come up with a solution. My "high ups" want me to light my speaker in a way such that there is a black "void" between them and the...

I would strongly recommend NOT gelling your LED fixtures. This is going to affect all of your colors and will limit the purity of blues, greens, etc. Balancing your RGB mix to warm white by backing down the blues 5-10% is not going to affect the overall luminance enough to justify your loss of...

I've never used either piece of equipment you're using, but here are some general guidelines. First, just to be clear, a DIMMER is a separate piece of hardware. You'll need 3 components to make this work. Your Instruments (ADJ Profile Panels) connected to your Power Source (Dimmer plugged into...

In my opinion, all levels of lighting technicians should have the same skill sets and knowledge of electrical theory, safety protocols, equipment handling procedures, and production etiquette-- this is just a matter of safety and competency. Hours logged on set, formal education, and increasing...

I am fed up with trying to get tech support from PRG and Marion Hall about their Virtuoso DX console. Please, If you have used or are currently using a Virtuoso DX lighting console, please get in contact with me. I have some issues that should be easy to address, but they are specific to this...

I encountered an issue that I had never seen before this weekend. While programming for a show around midnight Friday, my theatrical fixtures started fluctuating intensity pretty severely. It got to the point that when stepping between programmed cues, some instruments would not turn on at...

Well, all I can tell is that the end result is the pattern shaking. I can't SEE the instrument vibrating, but that doesn't mean it isn't. My guess is that it is the entire instrument and that the entire room is vibrating that much. I had one of my vendors suggested using a yoke with 2...
