ColorKey Mover Halo Spot 30 with Custom myDMX Go Profile

So I picked up this light on sale 2 weeks ago to test it. Small mover, basic features (gobo wheel, color wheel) and it's small 6 x 6 x 11.

One feature it has is a LED ring around the lens that is separately controllable. In myDMX Go, I would either have to set it up as a separate 1 channel fixture to have it controlled along with the PARs (uplights, Wash FX2) .. or run it manually .. or fake out the system. SO I decided to fake the system and use one of the unused buttons in the middle that would normally control (if you had them) Zoom, Prism or Barrel Roll. Since I don't have or intend to get a Barrel Scanner, I went with "Roll" and created the profile so the LED channel (ch 12) was created as a Roll channel and therefore I could use that control to adjust the LED colors .. and it worked just fine ..

Yea .. I didn't think about the vertical until I watched it and really didn't want to go back to do it again .. next time.

My son wants me to do a YouTube thing and monetize it .. not sure I'm up for it.

It states a 30w LED. I got it from PSSL


They have sales all the time and had a 19% off coupon last month so I got this, a white table skirt and some bags, so at the time the light cost me $146.
