Jeff Messer Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Darn that was nice and thanks for sharing your work. Can you take a couple close up pictures of how you made it because I see a couple coming for this years show. I have plenty of spare pixels and a lot of channels to use...

ezimnow Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Very nice Ron. I went with CCR's this year but now you have me thinking Pixels! Great song as well, I was going to do the White Heart version as well but never got around to doing it. Can't wait to see your finished product. Can you PM me when you have a few and tell me where your getting your pixels? Eddie Z Edited July 28, 2013 by ezimnow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Boyd Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) My pixels came from Ray Wu. The controller is Sandevices. Along with this burst I'm doing a 16 leg by 50 pixel tree for less than $500. Using LOR pixels, well you do the math. Way too rich for my blood. Its really a no brainer. Now, I am losing the customer support and warranty, but saving, literally, thousands of $$$, I'll take my chances. I still have a bunch of LOR stuff including several sets of pixels and plan on staying right where I am. When my display outgrows LOR, I'll move on to something else. I love LOR, but lets face it, the software now is for LEDs and the dinosaur incandescents (no offense to you if you still use incans). It just wont handle the major jump in channels for the ones of us that are making the change-over to pixels. Im moving from 1200+ channels from last year to 5000+ this year. I know how long mine takes to convert and load, i cant imagine what the displays with over 20k channels are going through. Its been proven several times over by crashing PCs, long load times, etc. I just hope that the program is reworked to handle the channel load.

I must have moved it during a little cleaning spree. For those of you that would like to see it, try the link above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
