    OK. I tried the sACN on release version and that did not fix the issue. I also ran the sACNview and it did not appear that my laptop is picking up any sACN data from my Element. I say appear because I could be using the software incorrectly. At this point I would pay for someone to set this...

    Hooking up Laptop to ETC Eos Family Console to teach

    I have the USB and the files, but I still can't get the Element to communicate with my laptop and can't seem to find the PDF that explains how to set up capture executables with the console. I have visited that wiki page concerning setting up the visualizer, but feel like I am missing...

    Antari Ice-101 Best Setting?

    Anybody have an opinion on these lighting simulators? I am looking for a program to give me a better perspective of how lighting works and one that I could use to teach my high school students.

    GEL Combos Suggestion for OZ

    I first want to thank everyone for their help and suggestions as I really do know next to nothing about lighting. We are doing the MUNY version of the Wizard of Oz at our high school and do not have enough money for a lighting designer. So, I have to step up and figure it out. We are a brand...
