The 2500s are fast as all hell, as Vari-Lites have always been. The 700s are not that fast but they pack a hell of a punch. Gobos, P&T and CMY are pretty fast, noticeably more than a 500. Zoom is OK, not as big as a VL, but pretty decent. Gobos are nice and easy to change.They're...

If you're using a City Theatrical power supply, you set the starting address on it. t sounds you're using a regular Color Kinetics PSU, so that means you need a Zapi to set the addresses. Once you get your hands on one I'll be more than happy to help you use the thing. Its kind of weird.

LJ? For theater? Weeiiirddddd

Not ot throw a wrench in here but some scrollers take some stupid math to calculate the address. This is because they use the PSU as part of their channelling, the manuals always have the formulas for them. Terminators are not always needed, and sometimes can screw things up a bit. They're...

I like the specs, the Renkuz-Heinz speakers are amazing cabs. I think the weak point in your system spec-wise is tat pesky DriveRack PA. I love the Driverack series for schools and churches (I prefer the Lake Contours for anythign truly professional). But the PA model is just not that good I...

You can pre-patch a show, do palletes, create views, set-up networks. As for 'real' visualization, I think ESP is the best software out there. I'm excited we just bought 4 universes of it.

I used Luxart years ago when it run off DOS (remember DOS kids?). It was a pain back then, but this newer version seems decent enough. its good they've done that.

You know what's sad? I'm not American hahaha

Nixon had just come out of the hospital, refused make-up, and his suit was too big because he had lost weight during his hospitalization. Kennedy looked healthy, trimmed and fit. People were more confident that he could run a country.

That is correct.

Both sound and lighting are carefully monitored for the White House, there's a team of people who take care of all necessary details about it. The mircrophones they've always used, the light levels, even correction for film are responsability of the White House A/V department. Now candidates...

The whole thing with LED units is not their creatin but the LEDs itself, there is a big part of the R&D that goes into finding or producing the LEDs and matching them. Otherwise, LEDs can be very dissimilar in color one to another, even from one company and model. Good luck on your project...

Ah, but here's a bit of a discrepancy: you wanna focus the gobo on the smoke, not a projected surface. The focus of the gobo at the ceiling may not result in defined beams. You'll have to go back and forth till you find the right setting for it.

Yes that is indeed a Colorblast 12. Amazing lights, we use them all the time, and I think we own over 300 of them because the demand is so big on them.As for their use in theater, it depends, RGB mixing is good up to a certain point, it can cause multiple colored shadows and may be prone to...

If they're floor lights hining up you need to play with the angles a bit, the more you tilt them towards the audience, the more visible they'll be. What wattage lamp do you have in them?
