Did you recently take a position with ADJ?
I agree completely.
I had to bring someone up to speed for a show when my last midi cable went belly up. No MIDI:no pedal:no show...(For Chris' sake, yes I had spares, but not with me and I forgot to hit the gtr ctr before the show.) Operator Headspace and Timing...
I taught a friend of mine with scant computer knowledge (much less lighting) to run the show via mouse in about 20 minutes. Luckily he's a dedicated fan and knew every song well.
I still have my elation stage designer as a backup, but haven't even pulled it out since moving to MyDmx.
p.s. I'm now accepting endorsement offers...
