Hello to all!
I'm writing a DMX software controller program and have found a lot of useful information already at this site!
Just doing a little minor lighting at live sound gigs, and, since I'm a programmer (25 years of programming), I thought perhaps I could design and build and DMX software controller that works the way I'd like it to (so I can add capabilities as I go). It seems that new, fancier DMX LED lighting is coming out all the time, and with some of them having as many as 27 channels that can be controlled, it seems a no-brainer that it should be done using a laptop, rather than a "mixer" type of controller (I have a Behringer Eurolight LC2412 that I've been using--I know it's probably a cheap item, but for now, it does the trick). I only have a couple of DMX controllable lights and a fogger, but I've got big plans for a great light show.
Looking forward to interacting with you!
