    20th Century Fox Search light effect

    Thanks for all of the suggestions. I have written down all of the resources named and will try to find the one that suits our small venue. I still have time to investigate, since the show is in October. OTH

    20th Century Fox Search light effect

    The director for our upcoming production of "The Fantasticks" wants an old time search light effect outside ( reminiscent of the old Twentieth Century Fox intros) of the theatre. What is available in the way of moving lights that can be controlled from an NSI 7524 or Stage Setter 8 control...

    What's the inspiration behind your user name?

    I missed this thread when I first signed up, as I needed some answers rather quickly. I got several replies that helped greatly. Thank you all. As to my moniker, OTHScott. Actually, my initials Oren Tyler Harrison Scott. Or as some of my friends have pointed out lately, Over The Hill Scott.

    Thanks for the replies. The DDS6000 dimmers are microplex. The MC7524 board has microplex and DMX outlets. Is it possible to use both of these at the same time? We have dimmer packs for both protocols.

    Control/Dimming Controller/dimmer compatibilty

    I have been out of the lighting scene for too many years(pre DMX). I volunteered to help with a small production at the local theatre. They have an NSI 7524 console and two NSI DDS6000 dimmer packs. Each dimmer has one channel not working. The owners have bought two Matrix DMX Pro dimmer packs...
