shg Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 O.K. Guys'This is my first season doing this,I need some help here Can I make my lor controller due a random twinkle on my lights if so how??I have a 40ft tall spurce tree I lit up with blue lights and was awesome but for next year I'd like to add some clear random sparkle or a random twinkle if that makes any sense. I bought some random twinkle lights at Home Depot but when I tested them it took too long for the twinkle effect to warm up and start working then only a few of them would sparkle not what I really had in mind any help would be nice thanks. Bye the way IAM ADDICTED TO THIS CRAZY STUFF.:dude: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightORamaDan Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hi,You cannot have individual bulbs on a string twinkle (unless they are twinkle lights). If you have a number of channels on the tree you can set all the channels to twinkle or half to shimmer and the other half to twinkle. The more channels you have on the tree the more effecive the effects will be.Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_K Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 You could use un-modified curtain strobes from a place like Guitar Center or Musicians Friend. Just Intersperce throughout the tree. They use this technique at Disney often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
