Has anyone done a full scale change from A/L to LOR ? how available is shared sequences

I currently have 6- A/L 16 channels controllers

I have been considering it for the last couple of years but finally made my mind up this year to find another system,

Besides the Fact that A/L is way over priced, their customer service sucks beyond what you can imagine, Paul their owner is the most disrespectful person i have ever met in the way he talks to customers,

Where can i find sequences so I do not have to go buy them for a ton of money, ?
is there a wide range available that people share ?

If i wanted to make the change this year, how easy is it to make the swap over or does it take them weeks to build the ocntrollers if they are not already made.

I have been trying to order 12 songs from A/L for 4 weeks now and still cant get them, and now they do nt respond to email and do not return phone calls now,

I have many, many sequences other people have shared. I don't use them all, but I have over 40 that I have reworked and don't mind sharing any of them with you. There are also sites that have free sequences for download.

Its allot to (re)learn in just a few weeks, but it could probably be done.

I would guess you would be less frustrated if you made the swap for next year. Not sure how quick you could get 6 LOR controllers this time of year.

Yes, there are lots of LOR sequences available. There are a bunch here and here.

Plus, like Linda there are many here that will share sequences. Also there are many sequences uploaded thru out these forums.

For your information. I have heard the Drew Hickman can convert animated light controllers over to they can run on and LOR system. Drew's website is Holiday Technologies.com

thanks everyone, really helps, i may wait till next year and look into Drew Hickman to change them over, didnt he work for A/L !! the name is extremely familiar,
i am truly surprised A/L still has customers or continues to get new ones with the way they run their business, I am sure i am not the only person who feels this way

I'm one of those that converted as well. My show was screwed until the replacement board arrived on December 23rd. Sold all of it at a loss and haven't looked back. First year with LOR was 128 channels. Now... I have over 750 at my dispense.

I do know that LOR firmware has been loaded on AL controllers successfully.

I believe Drew did work for AL. I think AL decided the little guy was not worth their time and focus primarily with commercial business. I know of 2 large AL users in my area and I have heard that one is changing over to LOR. I told the other how he could migrate his equipment over to LOR.
