Geez now Visualizer is going to own me

Ok. So I start this year with LOR 32 channels and play a bit with visualizer but discover that I can play with sequencing on that few channels without jacking too much with visualizer.

Like soo many others.....now I AM COMMITTED. So i begin a life of obsession and being broke. Adding "bling" to my display. Next year, some CCR, maybe some dumb pixels and 4 more 16 channel controllers.

I started to look back at Visualizer and what it will take to set that up and I was going "omg".

Do all of you more experienced guys use it for sequencing? Im not sure how NOT to use it. Once my stuff is down no more 2am quickie looks with all the lights up. Plus I dont want to spend a buttload of money on an idea without seeing it in visualizer.

Am I correct here?

I use the visualizer before I start ordering lights. Once the Vis is setup I move to the sequence editor to make a master file and export the channel list so I can use it for every song.

I'm with you 100% and have been since day one. I don't know how else to sequence without seeing it in action. IMO every minute spent being anal about fine-tuning the animation drawing or the Visualizer saves at least an hour's worth of sequencing do-overs.

I thought so. With 32 channels and it being largely in series of 4 it was not rocket science to make it work. man...the visualizer tool is highly complex to get my hands around. Ive watched the tutorials but it sounds like I need to take my graph paper layout and take the time to get it done.

Stepping it up is expensive! lol.

I can't even begin ti imagine how I get a CCR tree and some pixels imbedded in. I know we probably have some pre-done? Just copy and paste aps for bushes/trees and such? Or do you guys put each pixel on?

As I said, 2013 I am not going to try to make the leap to smart pixels.....stay with some dumb and LOR CCR's. Plus More controllers.

Pretty funny.
