TGabriel Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Two week today and no news. Maybe the snow got in the way. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerrymac Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Come on Lady's and Gent's. LOR's projections and dates haven't exactly been spot on in the past but holding them down to an exact day likely doesn't help foster honest projections. At least wait until the day after the projection (assuming you disregard the "about") to begin disapointment! With over 10 years in the software development process I can assure you Stuff ALWAYS happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasmadrive Posted February 14, 2014 Author Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Now I understand why Dan doesn't like to answer these types of questions.... I don't blame him.. Edited February 14, 2014 by plasmadrive 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazydave Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 <---needs to make a decision on how to do his 24 strip matrix. If they are coming out with some new tools... I'll wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zman Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Give it another week to 10 days. Hopefully it won't need that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taybrynn Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 How about software that can handle 30k channels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I started this hobby in early 2005. If I had waited on S2 to come out, which was 'just around the corner', I wouldn't have had a display until at least 2007 (if not later.) Give them time. I know it's not the answer everyone wants to hear, but having been around these parts since 2005, that's just how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidcole Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 How about software that can handle 30k channels! That's a very good idea. Wouldn't that be called xLights/Nutcracker ? Seriously .. LOR would have to shoot a lot higher than that tho. Their entire architecture may have to change for this to happen. Or at least build a compilier for a rearchitected run-time portion. LOR has amazing reliability and function for most users, and they already charge WAY too much for software extensions related to their CCRs and CCBs. I think most of us hobbiests would not want to pay for LOR with that kind of capacity. Those who grow that large might not have a problem with it tho. As I see it, it's all relative to how big your show gets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a31ford Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I would like to add that software sometimes is the "saving grace" on a company's bottom line (as in the software is WHAT makes the hardware sell, (Ironical that the personal PC is (for the most part) based on Microsoft's software contribution to humanity (whether we like it or not), With that said, IF I was Dan, I would NOT get into details until the software was ACTUALLY functional, so a light said "2 weeks" (thinking of Arnold/S in the mars movie lol) you know where the mask head comes off....... ANYHOW, it could take 2 or 3 MONTHS before something appears. The ONE thing I DO KNOW..... IF Dan has spoken, it WILL happen, the only question is when, NOT IF...... Give him time to get them to write it !!!!!!!! Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max-Paul Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I haven't commented till now. I try to keep my expectations low so that my disappointment is low or I am amazed if reality is greater than my expectations. True that this is still a hobby per say for the majority of us. Although I think a few that can drop a few thousand in a season to buy up few thousand pixels and controllers to boot. Those people might be on the edge of professionals decorating their small manions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Messer Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Stopped my sequencing today and will wait on the new software to see if it saves me some time. I have a feeling its going to be a great product either way.... Thanks for the heads up Dan.... Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyci Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I am a LOR user getting ready to make the plunge into Pixels based on the deal going on at Holiday Coro currently, but reading through this post, I am now hesitant because this is a significant investment to do so. Dont know how long I can wait for an answer and risk missing the pre season sale. Would love to know if LOR is going to help me keep the faith.

I know one person who ran close to 20k channels with no problems. I had a smidge over 6k last year and had zero problems with the software. I will stay with LOR until it just won't do what I need. Until/if that time comes, LOR is my software of choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
