DanR Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I posted some videos of our Lakeside Lightshow in Fond du Lac, WI. The last three songs (Queen of the Winter Nights, Jingle Bells and Wizards) makes good use of our 19 ribbon grid - it was a 20 ribbon until a blizzard damaged our grid and multiple CCRs right before Christmas.SuperStar was used in all the grid sequences and worked very well! We have a piano player in the TSO songs and a galloping horse in the Jingle Bells song. Wizards has a grand finale with fireworks!(We still need a decent video camera to capture better colors of the grid.)Hope you enjoy! http://www.fdllights.com/videos.htmDan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Very nice. Only by looking for it could I tell that the bottom ribbon has been damages and was not working Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Farmer Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 What are your ribbons mounted to? How did they get damaged? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanR Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 They are mounted to an aluminum structure that fell (heavy snow and high winds). This tore the wires from a lot of the ribbons or put enough pressure on the ribbons where it broked internal paths, usually in the first segment of ribbon. I found out I could cut out the first segment and then solder the wires onto the 2nd segment. This fixed quite a few of the ribbons although being a couple pixels short on the right side.

redsea300 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) Very nice job. How many networks did you run on the matrix? What was you spacing ? Edited January 2, 2013 by redsea300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanR Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Very nice job. How many networks did you run on the matrix? What was you spacing ?We have 5 networks for the grid (4 ribbons per network). We tried 6 ribbons on a network last year and it seemed like there was some lag on the heavy animated sequences. The ribbon spacing is 4 inches center to center.Nice job on your sequencing also! It looks like we have a lot of the same ideas in hot chocolate. I like the use of your masks with the text sequences - I'll have to look into that feature more as I haven't used it at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
