zman Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Hey guys, I am perusing a bunch of threads, DMX, network etc....One question I have, and don't fully understand the implications or reasons why you would change the settings.When would you want, or need to adjust the network speed with LOR?Using the ELLs myself I realize I am limited to only 2 settings if I remember correctly. Last year I ran just under 400 channels. In 2010, I will be over 500. For 2010, I updated my show laptop to a screaming machine, but I realize that should have no significant impact to the show performance per se.This year will be a more complicated network incorporating wireless Lynx LEs.Input? Thanks.

The biggest difference you will see, if my experience means anything, is that the lag between songs during the first run-through of each show will be greatly reduced, based on how quickly the new PC loads the sequences. In my case, last year I had a lag time of up to 20 seconds, depending on the sequence. In trials for this year, that same sequence only provides a four second lag time.
