ChristmasCanada Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Are there any alternative controllers for RGB pixels or digital strips that will work with LOR.? I was thinking of a matrix wall with strips or pixels. The cost of a matrix using CCRs would be way to much $$$$. I'll be using the 6803 digital strips or pixel strings and I would like to find controllers that are a bit cheeper than the CCR controllers.

Any word on when LOR will be adding the E1.31.?I've read that I can use my 485 USB from LOR to run DMX but with an older computer would I be better to go with the Enttec Pro.?

Guest wbottomley Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I don't know the best answer on the USB 485 vs. Enttec Pro.E1.31: http://forums.lightorama.com/forum92/31622.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This allows more channels without data loss, or lag over the various network types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
