Hey Everyone,I recently acquired an NSI N0501-2 or Leviton I/F 501-2 (i believe they are one in the same) to be able to utilize some old dimmers we have to be able to be controlled by our DMX software. We are currently running a variety of DMX controllers (what ever production is in the...

Is it possible to go from DMX to Artnet? I have heard that nodes go both ways but I'm not entirely sure. This is for a home theater that runs off of Artnet and I would like to be able to output DMX from a basic DMX controller or PC software that has a DMX dongle like ETC Eos nomad. Any help...

Hello,I'm having a bit of a problem with some of my dimmers.. I work in a black box theater, where all the dimmers are ETC SmartBar's that are daisy chained together to an ETC SmartFade. There's a problem now, however, where some of the bar's (but not all) are not working. Not working meaning...

Hey everybody, so we've been experiencing this problem for years now, we're finally looking at solving it. We have a Electronics Diversified mark vii dimmer rack which also includes our house lights, they use the same dimmers as our other lights. However there is a special input for house light...

Hello everyone, I've used this board in the past and appreciate all the good expertise here. I've posted in the past, but for some reason my account isn't being recognized at all, so I had to start a new one. Apologies for that. I'm working with a venue who are having what is a fairly common...

So, my venue is having issues with our LED strips (Color Force 72) glitching and losing controllability. We open thurday, and already have sent two units out for repair for the same issue. So far, nobody has any clue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I've attached a link to a video...

I am running a show tomorrow in a new event space that has a 16'x16' showLED curtain. The controller is currently set for stand alone mode and is just white when plugged in. The owners want to control it and use the colors with the house lighting console - an ETC Element. Tonight we ran a...

Our theatre is recently updating a very outdated lighting system. We have upgraded to all new portable dimmer packs with DMX control capabilities. We bought the Chauvet Xpress 512 to utilize as a DMX interface with our computer. When I downloaded ShowXpress however, it doesn't seem to be made to...

Does anyone have a good suggestion for how to tag lights with focus, channel, dimmer, and other necessary materials? I need something that is durable, but not flammable because these are lights we are talking about. Thanks, Joshua

Hi: I'm relatively new to all this DMX stuff and I was hoping to get some help on a set-up I was planning.We have an ETC Express 48/96 that will be doing all the DMX control. We are hanging two I-Cue systems with a DMX Iris in each (on a S4). We will also have 8 color scrollers on some...

Hey CB, I have been a member for a while, mostly reading and sharing the community with others. Anyway, I have been working on a brand new concept is lighting control for the past couple of years and when it came to debuting it, I thought of only one place, The Booth.LightRift just launched...

Hello!Also, before I continue, I'm in the UK when I reference mains/connectors etc...I recently purchased a 3 channel DMX controlled relay unit with 10A switching per channel. I was wondering if I could create some kind of cable that would enable something like a lamp or prac prop to be...

Greetings! I am having a very peculiar challenge and am wondering if anyone has experienced similar things. While trying to interface an ETC Ion with Entertainment Technology Intelligent Raceway, I was unsuccessful getting the console to output to these dimmers directly. I first tried using a...

Hey guys! So as you know, DMX control has gotten extremely inexpensive, especially using cheap (yet in my opinion generally reliable) USB-to-DMX interfaces sold online. An example of such interfaces is this one, which you could buy right now for $16.81. While these solutions are certainly not...

Hello all! I've just got done doing lighting for an event at my church, and something is bugging me. I'll keep is short and to the point: (maybe not)We rented a fancy board (jands vista s3) and fancy moving lights, and we used the permanently installed lights in the venue. We plugged into the...

Hello, I am a 16 year old living in Southern California, and I could really use help. I am planning on either helping direct, or directing a show in a theatre very close to me. The theatre is what some people I know would call, a bare theatre. The theatre is actually an auditorium, and has no...

Hello! I figured I would ask all of you, considering I may be missing something. I am looking for a lighting console to install in a community theater. I have worked with Strand Consoles before, along with ETC (such as IONs). Anyway, it doesn't need a whole ton of channels, we are running under...
