GaryMartin Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Here's an early taste of what this year's show looks like with the new digital pixel tree!The show is LOR S3 controlled, linked to a Madrix PC via DMX. The digital pixel tree is running Sandevices E680 SPI controllers, 150 amps of 5vdc power using streaming ACN from the Madrix PC to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWSanta Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I love the mix of Glowing dots on your arches. Are those D3 Fireflies? I can't remember if that's what they are called. May I ask what a pixel tree is???Your display looks amazing!Evan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scrolling text, the waves of red in the Krypton intro, the fireworks at the end of Sarajevo. 2,016 RGB LED pixels, each one individually controlled. (Yes, that's 6,048 channels just for that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubado Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Great display. Litter your yard with mothballs to get rid of the rabbit. I've had problems with one this year too. Since I put out the mothballs, haven't seen it since, anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Awesome display! Are the firesticks on the same channels as the arches? In some places it looked like they were and in other places it didn't but it got me to wondering what it would look like if I made some and put them on the same channels as my arches. I also love the snowmen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also love the snowmen!What I call "Bellagio poles" and Chuck H insists are "Firesticks" are on their own controller in our display. One AC16 for each pole. The white lights on the arches are two arches to each AC16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 "Bellagio poles" sounds fancier. Whatever one chooses to call them they are really make a statement in a display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
