michael.farney Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Here's a short demo and LOR sequence that shows some DMX programming. This was requested in a different thread, but I thought it made the most sense to post it here. I used a Chauvet Q-spot575 and Chauvet minWash in this clip. Since I only have a digital camera, the color and quality is not great. The minwash is bright enough the colors wash out on the video. Please note the sound is loud if you have your volume turned up high. I left on the sound so you can hear the roaring fans. If you listen carefully, you can even hear the various wheels (color, gobo, prism) spinning in the 575. These things are not very quiet!http://pc.lightoramasequences.com/dmx

The table is in the last 1/4 or so of the PDF.Please note, this is a S2 file. LOR1 will not open it. Also, when I tried to save the file, my XP tries to save it as a CDF file. Make sure you save the file as a .LAS
sparky741 Posted February 13, 2008 Posted February 13, 2008 Thank you for the demonstration! Seeing the videos and the program answers some of my questions. I have been looking into getting some DMX fixtures for my display this year. Found this thing:http://www.blacklight.com/items/CHART575Wbut I don't think the wife will spring for the price tag. LOL Although it would be awesome :cool:

LOL Although it would be awesome :cool:Look at Chauvet's 200B color washes. They are pretty powerful I hear, but I don't have any yet. I haven't decided if I want to use MinWashes or 200Bs instead of floodlights light year. I'll need about 6 of one of them.
