Greg Young Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 This is a great and affordable event to attend!Excellent presentations which are low key and interactive with the audience, great food, and a chance to interact with some great folks - veterans and newbies alike.Were it not for work related scheduling problems on my end, I would certainly be there again!Some very interesting things were first demonstarted at the event (which is very close to Dan Baldwin's neck of the woods), so I am sure some surprises await attendees!

Dan Ancona Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Registration is now open for this year’s EPIC to be held on June 22, 2013 in Cinnaminson, NJ. Registration is $30 and included light breakfast, lunch and Andy always throws something interesting on the grill later.Time looks to be around 9:30AM and typically goes till long after dark.Registration site: http://www.epic-christmas.com/ The event has been well received in the past and looks to be the same again this year. It is held outside in Andy’s back yard, rain or shine. We boast an extremely casual set up – most of the time is spent just BS’n. This year’s agenda: There is none!!Some topics we will most likely have are: Software options; LOR, LSP, Vixen – what is common what is different.Hardware options; From plug and play LOR to DYI stuff such as Renards.LOR and DMX – how they play togetherPixels and more Pixels What types of controllers are out there?How do Madrix and Nutrocker work in your show? Anyone that has some knowledge of any of these topics, please bring along your hardware / software and show it off!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Ancona Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) We will have a short presentation on the 681 controller and how it will run different types of pixel nodes as well as DMX out to be able to run your other types of controllers!Another presentor will be going over Madrix and it's features and how it works with LOR.Also on tap will be how to solder SMDs. We have seen a recent trend to the use of these components on some new boards. Should be interesting to see a 'pro' give some tips and tricks.There will be some other presntations as soon as we line up some speakers. All in all, shaping up to be a great day.
