Hello,
I was wondering if someone could recommend a laser for a rock band. We use DMX to control lights from stage using a MIDI foot pedal. We have:
2 LED Colorstrips (back lighting)
2-4 Scanners (back lighting)*
6-12 LED Par cans (back and front lighting)*
2 ADJ TriPearl Moonflowers (back lighting)
1 ADJ Haze Generator (i love haze)
*note: ranges depend on size of stage
here were my thoughts:
1. galaxian sky. since i'm using DMX i could (hopefully) control it such that it's above peoples heads (if needed), ..but i did read a post about not being able to get the liquid sky effect via DMX (which seems hard to believe). i could blackout the colorstrips (which point down to the band) during laser scenes such that the lasers do not get washed out. liquid sky is always a cool effect.
2. galaxian or galaxian royalle - this would definitely go into the crowd given it's like a moonflower on steriods. is that going to be a problem ? i dont think so given the many videos i've seen on youtube. this might be a real cool effect for a slow song scene (blackout all or most of the lights, kick on the laser).
any recommendations from users who own these fixtures ? i'm torn.
thanks.
