    Fixture Identification

    I think you have it. Looks like the Color Kinetics Cove multi-colored version. Discontinued (or "replaced" with a new version).

    Fixture Identification

    We recently saw a production at a community theater and they used these as footlights. Very bright and washed the whole (large) stage in color. To me they look like some under cabinet lighting that attaches to each other but I've searched for hours and can't find anything. I'm trying to get...

    LED Master Dimmer parameter question

    Strange idea, would there be an issue with having all master dimmer channels set to max all the time even without colors?For example, if I create a subgroup of all the master dimmer channels and then set the subgroup to max intensity. Then the colors can be operated without having to touch a...

    LED Master Dimmer parameter question

    I'm doing my first set up (and learning as I go) in a high school and just connected a set of 12 LED lights to the board.LED's are iLED 64. They have 5 parameters, Red, Green, Blue, Master Dimmer, and Strobe. You have to run all parameters.The board is an old ETC 48/96.When I connected...

    iLED Par 64 power question

    We inhereted 20 iLED Par 64 lights. I don't have high expectations for these things but do have a question for them. The manual (manual link) states the inrush consumption of 20w. Would this be per color (so 60w for all) or for the whole light?

    Number of lights over Microplex

    I believe these small white wires you see in the first pic going into the output box are feeding the audio plugs in the second pics under the XLR inputs. These cords go to speakers on either side of the stage. My sound guy has been on vacation and hasn’t had a chance to review the workings yet...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    It’s a mess. I’m going to have to strip all the wiring off the pipes and start from scratch to give it some sort of order.

    Number of lights over Microplex

    Ha, I thought now, just had to check.If you want to see the "joy" I'm going to have with this, here is a pic of me with one of the light bars tonight.

    Number of lights over Microplex

    My plan for now is to run DMX outside of the walls to the back of the auditorium/tech booth. It’s only 150 ft. The school will have to decide if they want to pull new lines. That’s an upgrade up to them.I have a feeling I know the answer, but I guess I should ask for “due diligence”… what’s...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    The Obey 40 is gone I suspect. The tech was pretty much student run I gathered and it might have belonged to the student who graduated. We have an Express 48/96 so I can and run and test things with that.Connectors between fixtures are a mix of DMX and XLR so I basically have to take...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    I stopped by there today so some more info:The LEDs are not on dimmers, they are connected to wall power. They were connected to XLR inputs on the other side of the stage running to the booth (4 XLR inputs on each side of stage) so the booth must have been using a second board besides the NSI...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    I want to thank you all for your help! This is my first time dealing with the technicals of theater, luckily we have a very competent sound guy. I'm learning a lot but luckily once you get the basics it isn't too bad.The surprise was I never knew Microplex existed until I saw their NSI...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    I read the first line of the manual differently. It says the STARTING DMX is selected by the address switch and Microplex Channel 1 is equal to the STARTING DMX channel. So I read it as you can set the starting DMX channel as 80 with Microplex as 64 channels. Then your available channels...

    Number of lights over Microplex

    Oh, so the box also acts as a "splitter" too? So the DMX comes out of the board to the 501 and then passes through with DMX out AND Microplex? That makes it more attractive of a solution to keep those Dimmers now.I was toying with buying the 501 vs just replacing the 6 dimmer packs.
