erinshaneb Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 We have a 16 bit controller and bought it two years ago...Every year I say I am going to learn how to sequence them, but here we are on year three and still newbies...I have a MAC and have found sequences online, but I don't know how to get them to our controller..I have an SD card slot on my computer, can I just copy them to the SD card and the controller will know what to do or is there some program I need to load them into before putting them on there? Any input would be great ! Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mega Arch Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Welcome to the forum. No, it's not quit as easy as copying to the sd card. Assuming you have a minidirector or the showtime controller. You'll have to purchase the Lightorama software, if you haven't already. Then open the LOR Control Panel. Go to Simple Show Builder. Plug in your sd card (Kingston or Lexar - never Sandisk...another story..) Select which style player you have and it walks you through from there. Good luck.

Don't just get the basic plus license because that's what you might need today. Think about where you want to go with this in the future. Might be better to get a higher level now.

tomsusie Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Quote You can also set your show up using the LOR Hardware Utility program (It's part of the software package). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orville Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Why not Sandisk? I used one in my DC-MP3 Director for 4+ years and never had issues with any of them. I had 4 I used, never had a problem with the SanDisk SD Cards. Edited November 29, 2016 by Orville 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to adjust it everyday. Put the show on the recommended Kingston card and never touch it. So you that are lucky - keep going. But if starting new, why chance it?
