KSlush Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 So i want to use "Dumb RGB" to start my decorating with.How does a "normal" purchased 16 channel sequence work with a CMB24, if at all? Or is it a full custom programming? Im so new to this and starting kinda late i think for this year..but gotta start somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilmoney Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 No, if it did anything it wouldn't be what you were hoping for. A CMB24 has 24 channels and are ideal for RGB. RGB have 3 channels per light so your controlling 8 devices or 8 dumb RGB strips with it. That's why LOR sells the dumb RGB ribbons and floods in 8 packs. It is full custom ( custom means you do it yourself ) programming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box on Rails Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 (edited) custom sequences. They are not really that hard to sequence. What songs were you thinking of doing. I might have a sequence or 2 in for RGB pixels from a CMB24 I could share. Edited November 10, 2015 by Box on Rails 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpageler Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 You could use 8 of your current 16 channel as 8 rgb channel on the cmb24d. You'd copy/paste 8 of your 16 channels , into 8 rgb channels. They would default in as red color and you would then have to customize the color to your choosing.A CMB24d can also be ran as 24 single color channels. So you could have all 16 of your channels on the cmb24d, with 8 channels left unused. Obviously the light color would be wahtever the dump light's color is.You can also mix and match single and rgb channels on a cmb24d. I'm do this with several cmb24d...8 single color channels, 5 rgb channels (15 channels), for a total of 23 used channels and 1 left unused. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSlush Posted November 11, 2015 Author Share Posted November 11, 2015 is there another board that would allow a different controller to control the outputs. like a power injection board that had 1 control input, power injection input, and 6-8 outputs? then i could use a generic RGB controller to run all 6-8 strips.
