Hello All, I'm trying to figure out if I can go into a venue with an Ion/Eos that already has my show patched (dimmer to channel) and take the DMX output from my console (patched 1 to 1) and somehow input that into the Ion/Eos? This would increase load-in time and the need to import/export...

I had a GAM command 2 until it just died. Then I got a Swisson at LDI a couple of years ago and now I travel with the thing! Add a 1' DMX cable and it rocks! It also comes with a full set of XLR3->XLR5 Adapters & a case!

You could always try running qlab on the MacBook onstage and control it using remote desktop. Just turn the power saving settings off so the machine doesn't go to sleep when they close the lid

Hi PacDude,A couple of things you can try. Check in your "SUB" screen and verify that all of the submasters are "PILEON" and then on the same line make sure there are no time values associated with any of the subs. After that go back to "LIVE" and push a button over the left hand set of X/Y...

The second connector next to the VGA port is an MDR20. It was used for a short time prior to DVI's appearance in computers. Another Sony creation, it was short lived, carried good clean digital signal & power to the strand monitors on the higher end Strand 300 consoles. You can find MDR20 to...

If they're built into the program, why are they so difficult to find? I don't see a library folder labeled as such or a switch in their attributes to change it to be more useful. Maybe that's why so many people here are looking for an alternative? If you have the knowledge, please share it.

Someone at Strand still cares and is creating new fixture libraries for the 500 & 300 Series consoles. 500 Series Fixture Library Registration | Strand Lighting - A Philips Group Brand Plus with the information from Bobby's site mentioned above, a copy of the user manual of which ever...

I have 2 ideologies when it comes to a Hanging Tape or Jute as we call them in Portland. 1. I DO NOT use them when I have a small crew of 6-8 people in my own space. I trust my crew and we all know the room. We also discuss the plan for the day and "walk-through" the plot so everyone...

Hi Jason, Here's a spec sheet on the 48 x 2.4k ETC D20 portable/touring rack: http://www.etcconnect.com/docs/docs_downloads/datashts/Sensor_Sm_TouringRack_vB.pdf As for power requirements the simple math is... 48 dimmers x 2400w per dimmer = 115200w then divided by the 3 hot legs of...
