I was going to list everything for sale, up until I took the fall. I have a two car garage filled with stuff I plan on getting rid of. There were items that I bought over the years, that I had "hoped" to use, and never did. Lots of stuff still in the boxes. Several moving heads, scanners...

It's been a year or so since I've been in here... I'm still DJing at the club and ice arena... and riding my Harley mostly. I fell from a ladder, trimming a tree branch in June, and shattered my knee. I just started walking again last week, after spending the Summer in a wheel chair. I...

JBL speakers and K2 amps with amp rack / cross over & cables I need these sold... you'll have to come pick up. Make an offer (NOTE: I paid Bernie 10 grand). Anything reasonable will be considered.

I am going to try to make one simple deal. I am looking for a new three quarter or one ton truck to pull my "retirement" RV around the country. I will TRADE everything I have (it will take a semi truck [or two] to pick up) in trade for a new truck. I have over 25 various speakers, over half...

I bought these years ago from Bernie... I drove all the way to Chicago for them. Every speaker has a cart. I've only used them 3 times since I bought them. All must go. Specs for anyone really interested, but the subs are duel 18s and the tops are 15s.

Sounds to me like you've GOT IT!

Well... that's certainly a possibility. So folks... I'm waiting for questions. And, I'd love to hear someone say: "I got it!"

...AND FINALLY Appears the thread has fizzled already...

PROGRAMMING GROUPS OR INDIVIDUAL FIXTURES I'm not going to put any commentary on this thread... I think the pictures are self explanatory. Got it???

It's important to note... if you have various different brands of fixtures... not all of them have the same colors or gobos. If you want a red star from all of your fixtures, you better make sure it comes with that fixture, or has "changeable" gobos where you can order the gobo of your choice...

PROGRAMMING DETAILS What's actually happening inside your fixture, when you move a slider? As we mentioned earlier, there are 256 positions on your slider, that show in the small window in the upper right of the controller. Once you move the slider, and leave it, the value switches back to...

PROGRAMMING - finally! This next comment is VERY important to remember. Very few fixtures "share" parameters on the same channels. As discussed in an earlier thread, some fixtures have pan and tilt on channels one and two. Our next example actually uses channels three and four for pan and...

This picture is the result of arranging your fixtures to fill up one scanner button. Obviously, if your fixture has more channels, you need to plan accordingly. Got it? Bueller? Buller??

I knew what you meant... I used the term "forum" when I should have used your term... sorry. If there were hundreds of folks who were reading this, then, I'd agree with you. If only 3 people are asking questions, then, I feel this is adequate. If that changes, then, we can change it.

EXACTLY! Look at post #114 for the picture. Remember, this represents fixture button #1. You can do this same thing with all 12 fixture buttons.

That might work... I'm more than half way finished, and I think too many forums might get out of control... Once I'm done, it might be easier to answer questions that would benefit all readers of just one forum, rather than 6 or 8 forums. This is working for me right now. I envision someone...

So, in Cheating mode, if you want to move the "X" axis mirror on each fixture, you have to move slider #1; #5; then, turn the page for #9; & #13, to make them all do the same thing. Yes, it takes a little extra time, but you have remarkably increased the number of fixtures you can now...

I'm hoping this next lesson should bring things together... "CHEATING" The reason I use the term "cheating", is that this particular controller claims it controls 12 fixtures, with 16 channels on each fixture. Well, if you're using only 4 channel (for example) fixtures, you are leaving 12...

When you activate any of the scanner buttons, you are sending out signals on EACH of those channels. Any time one of the 12 scanner buttons is turned on, moving any of the sliders sends out the same signal to each of those fixtures attached. So, if you had the same style fixture attached to...

Yes... any time any fixture has the same address as any other fixture, either by plan or mistake, those channels within the fixture will respond to the input. In order to avoid that, they MUST have different addresses and scanner buttons. My lessons on "CHEATING" should better explain what I'm...

Now, as I've mentioned earlier, this can be done with hardware... but, it is TIME intensive, and will take lots of time to program. With software, this can be done in a couple of minutes, rather than hours. With hardware, and assigning each fixture it's own address, you can accomplish this...

Here... I found this one... watch at about 3:40 for what I mean. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdHBWY6P4rU

Well, "It depends". Did that help? If your wash lights are all the same color, then feel free to assign them all one address to save channel room. If you have more addresses that you want to assign, than you have channels on the controller, then "group" your wash lights. If, however, you have...

So, in anticipation of this question, I will give you a HINT... You may ask: "If I want all of my four (similar) fixtures to do the same thing at the same time, why shouldn't I give them all the same address"? NO! While they will all do the same thing, you are LIMITING them from individuality...
