Lightning

Former Member

I am putting on a haunted trail this year for halloween. I would like to have a large scene with Thunder/Lightning. I have a DJ system a friend gave me and lots of PAR cans and various lights to use. Can I find some sort of light controller that is audio reactive? Can I plug my cables into this and have the lights react with the sound? Do they make a system that intensity of the sound matches the intensity of the light?

Thanks, and yes, I am a total noob to audio/lightning.

Not in your budget.

Seriously, a multi-zone controller with multiple audio inputs for triggering and with intensity based on the volume of the audible input?

You're best off finding some sound triggers that can plug into the fixtures.

As far as lightning is concerned, use a strobe. Have it on for less than half a second at whatever mid to high rate you want to use. Just realize that some people can have an epileptic reaction to a strobe. Just a heads up since everyone wants to sue someone these days.
