Hi there, lovely people!
I need some help regarding the above mentioned issue.
Here is some background:
My band plays already with click track and backings using reaper. Now we wanna ad a lightshow to our songs.
We bought 4 led bars, and the enttec dmx pro thingy.
I have set up Emu from enttec and made a few programs/banks and scenes.
I can find the emu vst in reaper, so yeah.
But i dont know how to tell it to start a specific scene from a program. I read the emu instructions, apparently i can set up the vst to controll single fader, which is nice, but a bit too much for a beginner like me.

trying to find versatile fixtures to patch in and program in MA3. mixable colors, gobo wheel/rotation, relatively wide focus range, and maybe 360 tilt (not required).

I have a small rig in my bar. 4 tight beam moving heads, 4 wider moving heads with gobos, 4 different lasers, strobe, butterfly. I want to do light shows live,so want to program a set of midi buttons. Now I'm wondering is it best to setup something like one button triggers one effect for the whole rig and have a bunch of pre programmed effects or set buttons to control colours, others to control movements other's to control gobos etc etc so it would be possible to make up things in real time with different button combinations.
Advantage of the first is that it's easy to do live and the effect ..read more

You know after a show when DJ’s sometimes are like “I want to take a cute selfie with the crowd real fast”
I usually go to all white and blast the beams at the audience to get a clear view. Jw what others do? :)

...instead of stepping down from 120v. I'm gutting my kitchen and had the thought of running a dedicated low volt light circuit. Start with a transformer down to 12 or 24v, run low voltage cable and use fixtures made without internal step down circuitry. I don't even know if such product exists but it sounds logical. If I'm starting from scratch why would I run 120 volts around the ceiling only to step it down at each fixture? And with the price of copper today....

My RX receiver has power but the signal status LED doesn’t seem to be working, it was before I long pressed the unlink button.
I pressed the button but the signal isn’t coming back.
What did I do wrong?

I work in a rental and bought myself a Cerise One from FTS LED and Blackout. For some reason, I am only able to use the Cerise in Blackout 2.0, but I don't think that is the problem. When I was at work I was able to control the light. Effects, dimming, colors, strobe, everything worked fine. I was allowed to take a Titan Tube home with me, for further tests. As I started the BO2.0 walkthrough video I was linking the Titan Tube so I could test what was happening in the video. But I have no control. When it is linked it shows the Cerisae as its DMX source but after a second or 2, it jumps to CR ..read more

I needed to convert from three to five pin and I bought the wrong male/female! My board only has DMX in! My show is in 6 hours. How do I make a male:male DMX cable?
