I'm sure it does when WiFi is up, and no other apps are running. We've all had WiFi failures at random times for seemingly no reason though and that's what I'd be worried about. One of the most famous examples is the 2010 Apple keynote by Steve Jobs when his phone wouldn't connect to WiFi, while he was on stage.No idea what you are saying? It works and loads very fast!
I would imagine that type of system only flies if it's taken down after every show though as Broadway does, and not a permanent system for a venue. There's a local theatre that had to remove a very similar system to that, since it's 120V run over temporary power cables.This is what has become the standard on most every off-Broadway show, and even some of the smaller Broadway gigs I have seen recently as far as cue lights go -- the American DJ PC-100A. http://www.adj.com/pc-100a
It's stupid cheap, and works just fine.
Resurrecting an ancient thread here. (I apologize for the dust on your screen.) I'm looking for an extremely simple cue light system. The GAM Go-Lite mentioned earlier in this thread would have been perfect for my needs but alas, it's been discontinued. I haven't been able to find anything like it out there. Does anyone know of anything similar? I suppose I can always cobble something together but off the shelf would save me some time.
Good option and I may end up going that route if I can't find anything else. What I like about the Go-Lite system is that it was small and self contained. I could run one thin (telephone) cable and control 4 tiny lights with it. If I want the same functionality with the ADJ, I'd have to run 4 Edison cables and I'd end up with much larger/brighter bulbs than I really want/need.
I can't seem to find any other thread on this topic, so I'll resurrect this one. I'm trying to find a cue light system to install in our space. Ideally, it would be something that could be run over Cat5 cable, so that it's easy to run to the tech table, but also have run from the call position. I'm not above making my own setup if needed, though some sort of template or suggestion would be good.
I do like the LogiCue system that is mentioned above, though I'd rather not spend that much money on it, plus it's XLR runs.
OH I SO AGREE, I don't necessarily agree with staying with ideas from the "old days" but this ON/OFF system works so well.<snip>... And, for me personally, it's much easier to take cues from an on/off state from a switch... </snip>
