mmais68569 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I will be adding a Pixel Mega tree for 2015 & need to add almost 2400 ch to my sequences, just short of 5 Universes. Is there an easy way to set the start channel address & the correct universe with out doing it one at a time. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmais68569 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 thanks look like it worked. Now to get into Nutcracker & see if I can create & save animations( I know this is not the correct word) to the correct channels. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmais68569 Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 Ok I have been able to add the pixel tree to my channel config. Because it will be starting in universe 2 I have a lot of added channels I do not need. I want to start universe 2 at channel 281 not 513. 1. How do I delete all the added channels not needed 2. How do I set start channel numbers in universe 2 so the first channel is 281 Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Easiest way to delete a large number of channels is to go to the first unwanted channel and select create a group (I may not have the phrase right, but it should be close enough). Then in the box select the last unwanted channel. Then create the group. Then select the group and delete it. Sorry if I'm not giving details, but I'm doing this from my phone and not looking at a computer while explaining it. If this is not close enough, I will explain better when I'm home.

mmais68569 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 Thanks Jim Got rid of all the extra channels now 2. How do I set start channel numbers in universe 2 so the first channel is 281. This is for a pixel tree so I need to set address on 800 channels Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Constantino Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I used Vegomatic to set my string count and channel config. Then Export to LOR LCC. Then use Xlights to create effects. Then Export effects to your clipboard and use when needed. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmais68569 Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 I used Veg-o-matic & found where to set everything, EXCEPT the start channel. I want it to start at 281 & looks like veg-o-matic defaults to 513. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougd Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Why does it have to start at 281? Just start it on the next universe at channel 1, That will be easier to keep up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMeBobO Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 vegomatic allows you to enter the starting universe and channel within it if you also select continuous addresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstorms Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 All the cool kids use Vegomatic to add lots of channels. Very flexible tool. Just this week I made a new channel configuration with Vegomatic, figured out I did it wrong, and it only took me 5 minutes to redo it. Without Vegomatic it would've taken hours.
