It Looks like Aug 31 will work for the most folks.
 
grep.ca says he can host. Greg can you confirm?
Backup, Steve (mms) thinks he can reserve a conference room at the radio station he works at. 
 
I was thinking 10am to 5pm on Aug 31? We have people driving down from Fort Collins and up from Colorado springs.
 
What would you like to see discussed? I will give a talk on the latest Nutcracker and explain the new library of marked up songs from audacity.
 
Other subjects?
 
thanks

July 22 Update:

 

What: Denver Area Christmas Get Together

When: 10am-5pm Aug 31 , 2013

Where: This is changing as the list of people has gotten larger than Greg thinks he can host. Brian is looking at a conference room at the Admin office of the Fire Department where he works. Steve (mms) might be able to get a conference room at his radio station. He is a DJ on radio station KEZW in Denver (http://tunein.com/program/?ProgramId=432614&StationId=32570)

3rd backup is Sean to get conference room at St Andrew church, Highlands Ranch.

Some suggestions for an agenda

 

Brian wrote:

- If enough people have the falcon16, perhaps David can talk about setup etc.

- Swap meet if people have stuff to sell or trade.

- Show and tell. I thought this was one of the best parts down in the COS as well as the recent academy in TX.

- setting up rgb / universes to work in LOR3

- how Sean ran show only using nutcracker

- Basics of using vixen 3. Someone in the metro used it exclusively, although I don't remember who.

mms wrote:

A demo of the Falcon Pi Player may be neat.

I'd like to see a demo of Vixen 3 and/or HLS.

Maybe a show and tell new show elements.

sean wrote:

- i will demonstrate how to share nutcracker sequences. ill bring 20 already done and share them

- will bring my 20x120 flex strips and set them up to demo xlights

Greg write:

- I have a lot of 5 meter WS2811 strips 12VDC still brand new in the bags not opened that I want to sell from Ray Wu.  They are just a few     weeks old. 

- I also would like to set up a 'swap meet' of Christmas light items that we all could buy/sell/trade. Bring all your unused or un-needed christmas light stuff and let's see if we can trade. 

-I'm currently needing 5V WS2811 strips as my requirements for my megatree changed in mid build.

 

 

Thanks all

I know that I would like to look at some of the WS-2811 Strip lights and any DMX Controllers. Definitely trying to learn more about the smart Pixels. Whomever has some WS2811 12V Strips for sale, I would be interested in possible swap or purchase. :)

Sean,  Did you hear from Eddi, AKA 'TheJackal'?  He's in Denver, I haven't seen him post lately.  I'm sure he'd be interested in attending.

Brian (FireMedic4Christ) has found us a venue

Conference room reserved at my HQ just north of park meadows mall (I-25 & County Line) for aug 31 from 9am- 530pm.

greg.ca boiught the 12v ws2811 (these are the 150 nodes but only show as 50 addressable nodes), i think he has 20-30 of them. I dont know what he is asking. Ray sells them for $30 for 5m ($6/meter) plus shipping.

I have not heard from Eddi.

Anyone know how to ping him?
