I don't have the agreement in front of me, but from their website when applying:"Nonpro Live/Video Archival License - An Archival Video License allows you to record your production for archival purposes and provide at cost copies to your cast and crew. This license may be selected as an...
Looking for advice on distributing archival copies of performances done at our community theater. In the past, we would just burn it to a DVD, but these days DVD/BluRay players are becoming more rare. I was considering compiling to an MP4 and copying that to a cheap USB stick to hand out...
JT - got your server up and running on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ for use at our 80-seat theater. Install was super simple and no issues with that part. Thank to you for putting it out there.Wondering if you have run into any latency issues. I am using older Android phones running Plumble connected...
For an upcoming production I would like to treat the back wall of our set as a cyc and would appreciate some advice on how best to light it. First off, since we are a homeless community theatre, the stage/set/lighting/sounds are all temporary. The stage will be 8’ deep by 24’ wide by 6” tall...
I can second the shower curtain liner as a low budget alternative for rear projection. I'm working on a show now that we spliced 2 of the $3 WHITE (not frost) shower curtain liners from WalMart to create a 10' wide screen. We've only got a 2500 lumen projector about 12' back, but I was very...
Yeah - I thought the spare lamp holder was kinda slick...
FYI, got a response from Phoebus on the differences between the Ultra Quartz and the Ultra Quartz II:
The only difference is that UQII is equipped with a mechanical Dowser instead of the Clipper assembly. Also the UQII's...
I did a little searching and found it mentioned only a couple times in the forum. Anyone have an opinion on the Phoebus Ultra Quartz followspot? I'm looking at possibly buying a used one.
I work in a couple different smaller venues (~50-70' throws) and the specs look fairly good. WAY...
You can also transfer the license just using a text file or writing down some numbers. I have done this numerous times. You will need to have the software installed on both computers. On the one you want to transfer to, you will need the serial number as listed in the program. Run the...
I found this website a while back with links to some old Strand info. Here's the site:
Prisma Scène
It's in a foreign language but you can navigate around.
Here's the direct links to the 'new' leko pdf's:

There are 4 circuits on the chandelier each with its own light switch. Inside the gang box I unwire the switch and attach a pigtail cord to the light circuit which then gets plugged into the dimmer pack. I haven't tried it for the CF's but I have done it for the wall sconces circuit that has...
Does anyone know if the Chauvet DMX-4 dimmer/relay pack has true relays in it when running in 'relay mode'? Or are they just running the dimmer at 100%? I checked the manual and it's just not clear.

+1 for the Enttec USB Open. I purchased that with the 36-channel license version of their Lightfactory software. Have used it to run several plays/musicals with 4 4-channel ebay dimmers (~$60 each) and conventional fixtures. Lightfactory is also great for running soundFX within a show...
