Behind the scenes tour of our Christmas light show.
We are located in Cedar Park, Texas and we have been doing an animated, synchronized light display since 2010. Our display contains 25,000 individually programmed WS2811 bullet pixels that we buy direct from the factory in China. The pixels are programmed using community supported xLights.org software and are controlled using Falcon F16 pixel controllers. The show is run off of a Raspberry Pi FPP show computer the size of a deck of cards. Music is pumped through a very low-powered FM transmitter so guest can listen to the show from the comfort of their cars.
As of 2022 our show contained 25,000 pixels, 105 snowflakes, 13 white wire trees, 9 reindeer, and 1 Christmas cactus with over 780 pixels. The entire show run on less than 15 amps of electricity.
The Singing Trees are programmed using machine learning that align the phoneme vocal movements to the music track.
Sequencing done by John Storms and is available for free at ListenToOurLights.com

Thanks for the walk through. Did you make the wreaths yourself or buy them somewhere?

@listentoourlights Жыл бұрын

The wreath is "WREATH48NL 500 tip two piece" from CDI and then I added 125 pixels. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ps12hJeLz8zHc40.html

What process do you use for AI animating the vocal movements? I've just been doing the old setting the words to the right part and calling close enough, good enough so far.

Search for auto lyrics lighting fanatics, you literally just upload your mp3 and give it the lyrics as text. Gets you 90% there.

Have to tried using a Sound Blaster for your audio to your FM transmitter? If so was there a big difference?

What do you really mean by a power injection box?

@listentoourlights 6 ай бұрын

Power injection box includes a 12v/30amp power supply that has a little board that takes power from PSU and has multiple fused (5 Amp) outputs that run out to the lights giving them DC power to run.

How do you display the A/C props in xLights?

@listentoourlights Жыл бұрын

Under layout you find the AC model and change the setting to be single color.

At 6:46, what are you mounting your boxes on into the ground?

@listentoourlights Жыл бұрын

Controller stands from Wowlights dot com. I bought them way back before they started to overcharge for them

This is quite an amazing set up. I am so impressed with your creativity and execution. A couple of questions. Where did you get the stakes? and How did you get the lights on the trees? They seem very tall to me.

@listentoourlights Жыл бұрын

The black yard stakes are from Home Depot, bought a few cases last year. The big trees I rent a cherry picker to get the lights up there. I used to use a ladder, but it was very dangerous.
