I’d like my tech theater class next year to learn how to set up and operate DMX fixtures. We have an ETC Element in the theater, but it’s not practical to get 30 students in the control booth – or to leave students alone there. I’m looking for something the students could use in my room (and maybe something we could set up for dances in he gym).
For the fixtures they would use, I might take a few Colorado Tri-Tours down from the theater, but the students would mainly be using some ChauvetDJ effects lights that we have (4Play, Swarm, Colorail, Radius).
The goal is for students to know how to link everything together, set up the DMX addresses, and control the various aspects of the fixtures. $500 is the max I’m willing to spend, though cheaper would be better. If it helps, there is a PC running Windows 7 in the room.
Any suggestions?
