I am designing a large commercial holiday lighting display. The main attraction is an 85' tree wired with 1000's of Smart C9 leds. The C9s utilize WS-2811 chips controlling 2-5050 RGB leds per bulb. The lighting strings are 12VDC. The tree's lighting plot also includes 16 strings of RGB 50mm milky white balls hung vertically. They have the same control protocols as the C9s. The surrounding buildings are all adorned with various led strings all smart WS-2811. There are also 100 LED conventional and moving light fixtures. CONTROL ?? WHAT DO I USE ??
1) Should I use a sequencing software like LIGHT-O-RAMA, ViXEN, X-LIGHTS, or LIGHT SHOW PRO.
2) Another thought was MADRIX, AMDJ LED MASTER, ,or Light JAMS
3) Finally do I consider a large conventional lighting control console. HOG, ETC EOS,ION
I'm also looking for some help distributing signal around this vast outdoor area. I have 100 - 16' lamp posts that are wrapped in smart LEDS. I need to transmit wireless DMX to each Lamp post. I could do it with Citi theatrical show baby. I have small $15.00 circuit cards that utilize DMX to generate SPI for smart pixels. Each board is addressable. Coupling a Showbaby and this SPI card would do the trick all be it expensive. QUESTION: Is there a device that can receive DMX from a hard line & transmit the data via WIFI to a WIFI receiver that generates SPI for smart leds. I know there are lots of RGB analog or SPI controllers that work with an APP for your phone or tablet. They are everywhere. Basically, I'm looking to replace the smartphone control with a DMX hardline from a console.
ANY THOUGHTS ? Please advise if you can. I certainlly appreciate your help. Mike
