Yeah it works pretty well (never been used for intelligent lighting) but the processor is like a jet engine.

Just found this thread and decided I would add to it! Lights and Sound Booths respectively.

Well I think for what I want to do the gam product is exactly what I want. You can see the various effects in action on the page and I think one or two of them will be useful in my production of Little Women. Thank you guys for your help.

I am sorry to even have to ask this question but I have no choice. Basically I've been scouring the web looking for such a simple thing I can't believe how hard it is.Back in high school we had an accessory for a source 4 of the gobo variety. The device I describe is simply and animation...

Hello All,I was hoping I could have your opinion on a free program I am developing for the lighting community. Before anybody says anything, yes I know there are already iPhone and maybe Android apps in existence, but I don't care. I am making a program that had every Roscolux, E-Colour, and...

Thanks! It's still a little confusing, but not as much as before. I think I'll look at my dimmer rack tomorrow to see what inputs it can have.

Well just to get an idea of what needs to happen, does the wall plate need to lead all the way back to the board and into another universe, or to the dimmer rack?

Actually I do believe we have ready wirepaths complete with pull-strings.

My university will most likely be acquiring some new lighting technology very soon, yet the theatre does not seem to have any female DMX512 wall plates for intelligent lighting, only males for board plug-in or RFU. I was wondering how easy it would be to install a couple wall plates throughout...

Well there's almost no way I could send them to anyone, but I suppose I should keep the best one intact for historical purposes. Good Call

The best part is, even if we wanted to use them and got them working, There is much more stuff built in the way that we couldn't get a clear shot to the cyc. I'm considering gutting them and removing the front face to make them shelves (as there is always stuff strewn across that cat). They're...

Actually our theatre was built rather poorly, as it has only catwalks from which to hang lights, but only the first two are FOH, the last two are behind the curtain line.

Oh wow, so it's almost like the predecessor to gobos. Holy crap wait until I tell everybody this.Thanks so much for your help guys, that was fast!

Hello everybody.I have walked past these things so many times and each time think "what the heck could they be?" I go to Siena Heights University in Adrian, MI, and our theatre is at least 30 years old which explains why we have so many HUB ellipsoidals and fresnels. But these wall boxes...
