Help with DMX Controller

Well the built in mic is just that built IN. You wont see it but of you tap on the board the lights should change.
What can't you get the lights to work right now on the dmx op? Did you verify that the LEDs are set to dmx mode? Dipswitch 10 on?
Sincerely,

The Jelly Dome is the only one with dip switches... the others have LED read-outs... I'm really confused... I might have the fixtures set wrong... I don't know... I got my Revo Bursts to turn on don't know what I'm doing with the DMX board to control them.... All I want to do is put them on and run them sound active.... I'm sure that if I had the opportunity to talk with someone, I could get it done...

I posted another post today... thinking of going with a couple of UC3 wireless units instead of a DMX Controller but not sure... I am wondering if the 2 wireless remotes will interfere with each other.... does anyone know that?...

Okay. Each fixture with an LED readout should have a DMX setting. You will have to find out where it is in the manual. Also in the each fixtures' manual, there should be a DMX chart telling you what each channel and and value on each channel does. You will need to address each one. Check here for where I explain how to address and a few other things that might help you to troubleshot.

Let us know if this helps and then post some more specific questions since yours are very broad right now.

I'm sure this is all because I just don't know what I am doing... hahaha... I see you're located in NJ... so am I... How about a crash course!

Yea, first time is always a pain. As for me being in Jersey, I am slammed this week. Loading in another theatre show and then I go into a dance concert followed by a big show at a school. Located in Washington Township, Gloucester County?

SerraAva... Can you come to my Elation Post... I would appreciate your input...

By the way, do we know each other?

I called ADJ this morning and spoke with Sergio.... we went through each light and we had the whole 8 lights up and running in less than 30 minutes... He's the man!... Thanks to everyone else for their help as well..

Tommy

i have similar setup

2 Revo Rave
1 Revo 4
1 Galaxian 3D
1 Hyper Gem

Hyper Gem is my newest, yet to use it
you like your Hyper? and compared to your Revo4?

why Burst over the Raves? just curious.....

good luck

Using the lights for the first time this weekend... I'll let you know... I liked the Raves a little better than the Bursts... however, the Bursts are brighter and do not have any moving parts... 2 big plusses for me... and since I have the Revo 4 and the Hyper, the Bursts are a little different... I also have 2 Profile Panels in there for washes... and a Jelly Dome... everything looks nice in the office... We'll see how nice look at a large event...

I tried running them all DMX and it's not for me... I want them to run in sound active mode and with DMX you're limited unless you create scenes... you can't run multiples of the same unit in sound active mode and have them do the same thing like you can with a UC3 in master/slave mode...

With DMX you can only work one light at a time (unless of course you create scenes)... I'm a mobile DJ and want to keep it simple... turn some on... turn some off... and run them in sound active mode... I might take the time down the road to program scenes and maybe use it for full color washes (all on), etc...

For now I'm getting (2) UC3 Wireless units to run them... it should be much better for me and what I want to do... I also found out today that the UC3 remotes will not conflict with each other when working together

I know you are familiar with the new lasers coming out... what do you like better between the Galaxian 3D and the new Hypnotic?... do you feel the Hypnotic is worth twice as much as the 3D?.... Are there any other lasers to consider?

So you are Tommy B. Too funny. Yes, you know who I am lol. I will have to call you or shoot you an email. I use to work at the Rodio .

The Rodio?... I don't know what that is... you might be thinking of a different person...

Okay. Then you aren't Tommy B. I know a DJ through my former job. He does/did a lot of work down the shore in the summer at places like the OD in Sea Isle City.
