PHXKevin Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Hey Guys Sorry for the super basic question here but i am really not sure where to start. I have a total of 6 CCR in a single row across my roof line. ie -------- my question is which actual program should i be creating what i want to do in? Its confusing as superstar seems to be meant for having them layered on top of each other. Also is there an easy way to just use a scheduler to set some channels and use the built in features that the CCRs have in the higher channel numbers so i can have it do the random color mode etc IE at 6 pm have unit id 1 channel 157 go to 1 158 go to 2 etc and have it do this for all 6 strings (the channel numbers are just examples) Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocrash Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 CCRs are a bit limited in a single line. Here's a quick look at what I did - my first year display... http://youtu.be/jQG1RA7vfTI?list=UUV7UQ4m2l8XBz6vJl8ns2IQ I also use Nutcracker effects here and there as well, but run into the same problem - NC is limited when only using a single line of lights.

That is very cool. The first 5-10 seconds is what i am trying to figure out. You have multiple CCRs flowing from one to the other. id like to do that with 6 strings. How ever it seems i have no idea where to start.. Right now i am just using the random color mode but id like to spend the weekend creating something cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve synek Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I am pretty sure that Superstar now allows around 300 pixels in a row. This is my first year of playing with it, so I am no expert, but it worked on the front of my house at some 130 CCP pixels. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocrash Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 The latest version of superstar allows up to 360 pixels in a straight line. My house runs 300 pixels across, but actually stops short behind the tree because I made a couple miscalculations when installing. Hard to tell though when it starts playing. Once I configured my gutterline in SS, I just applied morphs, scenes, and heavily relied on the Instant Sequence tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
