Three years later and this video is still meaningful. It's great, even the one take video is fair enough :)

Thanks Man. I'm going to give this a try soon. I don't need a lot of DMX control, but It'd be nice to have the option and play around some.

Thanks man, everything works fine at the first try. I'm totally new to lighting and dmx. I had to update the library from freestyler forum. (Use Fixture creator, installed with freestyler, to import new fixtures). Is there a way to synchonize soundtrack with dmx scene, using midi I guess?

Hey. Great video but there is a problem with mine. if i'm in the middle of creating a sequence and then i wait for a minuet, There will be a gap from when i do the last part of the sequence to when i next do it. I'm trying to make it consistent but it wont do it. It depends on how long i wait.

what about crude cheap RGB animation lasers..does the program give you a DMX x-channel control board of RGB animation lasers that only got DMX interface. thinking about these el-cheapo 3D RGB animation scanning laser models from China with only DMX interface, if this dongle with some software would give you that control?

Why couldn't you put the movers in Master/Slave mode on the 2nd one, so when you control the first one, it's mirroring to the 2nd one, right?

@michaelstretch2252 5 жыл бұрын

go to the program fixture crater.. now make a new fixture . manufacture put your lst name fixture flame thrower. now total channels 4, then name the channels in channel description 1 2 3 4. save and export it.. now open free styler and add the fixture under your name .. then see what the faders do.. open fixture editor and mane the channels .. your now good to go.. dont forget to set your dip switches on the box to what your settings are .
