Make a pot of coffee.

 

AND START BUYING THOSE EXTENSION CORDS!

:D  :D :D  :)  :)  :P  :P  :P  

 

Find a few sequences, there are tons out there for free, and open them up and start some studying. Look at how they are structured and how to get the effects from the tool bar to the sequencing grid. If you have the music for the sequence listen to it along with watching what's going on.

 

There is a small learning curve with LOR software, but it's not too steep. Once you have that Ahaaa! moment, you'll be off and running.

go to monoprice on cat5 cables, they are almost pennies a piece!  I bought a case last year of 4ea of 5 different lengths and didn't spend of $50, even went color coded cables so I don't have to try and figure out the length.

Hope you didn't order the Whole House FM Transmitter from LOR. This transmitter has not produced good results for MOST of the people that got one, just keep that in mind.

Be prepared to send that back, had mine all of an hour and it barely broadcasted to my mailbox.  It went back almost immediately.

i clicked on the EDM site and cant seem to find pricing or contact info.. just customer feedback.

is there another site?

At the top of the page on EDM Site. Look under the Logo and choose the link you want. It's hard to see, as it blends in well.
