Dan C Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Thanks, I had them send the email with the license info.Just an FYI to everyone else;The first email and the one I just sent got caught in my yahoo spam filter because it came from Software@lightorama.com as where the order came from a different email adresss, it came from "Orders"So if anyone else hasn't received theirs, please check your spam filters.Now that I got the license #, The email says that I now have the "Standard" version, however the number is the exact same as my previous license.It give me an Internal Error #23, Please contact LOR customer Licensing support.I sent them an email.

rwertz Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I ordered an LOR1600 just so I can see how the Showtime controller gets wired with a single input cord. Hey, it never hurts to have a spare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LENNY RUEL Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Not too crazy with the balance for my 20 or so cases of lights from CDI hitting my card yet this week as well. Ordered three of the PC controllers that require you to plug in the wires (no soldering) got it in about 8:15 central and of course I had to go for the TryForFree. Brings me to 112 channels. Still need to upgrade my FM transmitter from my Whole House Gold as well. Leaning MBB 4000...Lenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPS shows a 7-8 delivery, so not bad for sale time, a one week turnaround from order to delivery.And my list of stuff to do to get things ready continues to grow...all kinds of newbie "oh yea, need to think about that.." items...I now understand how anyone with even a relatively small display cautions to not wait until october to really get rolling...

TJ Hvasta Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Interesting.. I just ordered the QC DC board and S2 upgrade from Basic+ to Standard (to run the 8 boards) and got an email saying LOR didnt have my email addy on file to do anything with licenses, yet, I clicked on Retrieve License and I got back just what I expected, my address and current (B+) info, so I'm not sure whats going on with their file system.. did anyone else get "nothing found"?

Scott T Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I ordered (2) CTB16K kits and (1) ServoDog. I'm going to be thinking a lot about how I can use the ServoDog. I will have 7 boxes (112 Channel) this year and I want to really try incorporating video. May try using the ServoDog to controller the projector's remote. Has any one attempted a projected video with their show? Any Suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ Hvasta Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Brian frm LOR wrote me, said they've been having server problems but found my addy and creesdited the Upgrade.. So I guess no one else ran into software purchase problems.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TJ Hvasta Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Scott, you'll prob have to figure out if your remote is digital or analog, or just run a triggering line to the remote port(if it has one) from the ServoDog.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaning MBB 4000...Lennyupgraded from Whole House Gold to the 4000 last year. VERY VERY Happy. (was not very happy previously), Used it last Halloween, Christmas and this 4th. Clear reception and a reasonable distance without overdoing it (an I am transmitting through a brick building, using the small antenna included).

lkcubsrule Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I didn't get anything. Is that an option? I plan on ordering at the end of this week or next week when I get some more funds in my bank account. I am taking donations, by the way. Just PM me.

jerrymac Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 As TJ pointed out the 4000 is in stereo and worked great for me. Clear sound and good coverage, Depending on which direction it covered from 2 to 6 blocks away. Only suggestion is keep the transmitter away from the computer (a foot or so), I did get some RFI when the transmitter was right next to the computer. Couldn't be happier. Easy to setup and use and has memory to save your transmit freq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
