Our church just got donated awesome projection screens and we are turning a corner of our venue into a broadcasting like studio where we are going to be filming interviews and streaming live through our website through some live events. I am looking through some lighting fixtures to use for...

Recently, our next event was going to be based around stranger things. Loved the show and since it has become a smash hit, why not pull some ideas from them. We have a ton of incandescent Edison bulbs in our stage design and I am afraid to run any type of intensity effects on them in fear of...

Every month, my Church puts on large scale events, each month themed differently. This challenges me to not always have the same lighting design as the month before it. My first idea is to create a box with LED tape inside and have it powered through a driver so I can control it from my console...

Hello all! I am in need of some help in picking out a lighting console for my church and what we will be needing! I do not know a lot about lighting fixtures and consoles, but I do know how to program and run shows on the week to week.Our church runs not just sunday services and the...

Thank you for that. Its what I needed

Originally It was just a normal mac formatted drive. I just changed the format to EXFAT and it still isn't reading it

Scratch that, my console is not reading the update through my flash drive. This is an issue I have ran into before

Thank you so much! This is what I have been looking for. Now time to reprogram the hundreds of hours I just lost haha

Hello all! I am in quite the frustrating bind here. I have been trying to get the most recent updated for the ETC element on to my console but my issue is I cannot find it anywhere on their website. i have downloaded the manuals too many times and I cannot tell what is what I actually need...

Yes those are the specs of the fixtures. I have been using them for so many of our services and events I know fairly well how I can use them. They do have quite a bit of functionality...if they wanted to work for me. They are really good for punching color and doing some cool clipping effects...

It is a space once used for our church's youth ministry, but now is going to be used for our leadership school's services and any interviews/videos that we will be shooting in here. Holds a max of around 500. I don't know what budget I have either. Basically, I need to get the total cost of how...

I am now looking to find some affordable lighting fixtures for a venue that can hold around 500/600 people. We have a 7x3 schedule 40 pipe grid that we can move anything around that reaches about 12 ft high. Our fixtures are either European fixtures that would normally require transformers and...

Recently, my pastor asked me to find a solution to the lighting we have at our church. For years we have owned around 20 Stairville 252 Led bars. Some have seen worse days as they sit in disrepair, but that is besides the fact. I have been told that I can simply swap out the 230v 50hz...

Another question! I know that other GrandMA models have the ability, that once inside a new venue, can center all of their focus palettes in one action. Is that possible with the Dot 2?

For our major conference that happens every year, there seems to be a trend of having to learn a new Console in a matter of days. This time I got the notice 3 weeks in advance. From the title, you know what system I am running. I am reading through the manuals and watching the tutorial videos on...
