I may have spoken too soon, I am now able to receive dmx using the RDM Device Test example sketch.

I seem to be having trouble with the Feather Examples. I've breadboarded and proto boarded the examples, but I'm having trouble sending or receiving from an ESP8266 Feather. Testing with a City Theatrical DMX cat to both send and receive DMX. I tried with regular 5v MAX485 chips, as well as w/ 3.3V ...

Has anyone experimented with Controlling Philips Hue or other "Smart Lamps" through LX Console via Applescript?

I'm thinking it might be an interesting way to control Practicals, in a situation where a traditional dimmer is unavailable.

I''m going to try it when I get some downtime.

I'd also like to add my interest in an advanced effects engine. 99% of the musicals i design these days use parameter based effects. Perhaps a starting approach would be a mathematical effects engine like the 1st Generation Martin MaxXYZ consoles. Select your Subchannel, then apply a wave generator ...

Thanks, I don't really need the UV anyway, but the fixtures do have a HSI and HSV modes. Which I'd rather use, since it allows me to leave behind a simpler setup once I walk out of the theatre. I'm using Chauvet COLORDash Hex PARs. They have a good output, color quality, and beam spread for the pric...

I went ahead and patched my LED Pars in a direct mode instead of HSI since I had the address space available. The built in channel layout for my Source 4 Lusters is working great, but I also have some RGBAW+UV PARS, and after adding all the sub channels and patching, the color picker doesn't work qu...

As LED fixtures are adding more and more color channels for a broader range of output, is there any plan to add additional color controls to LX Console? For example I see the direct control channels for the 7 color channels of a Source 4 Luster, but is there a way to use the Hue & Saturation cha...

LX console is the only software open, and the ip is selected. I can see the ip of the node in the output window as an option for unicast, so it is responding to the poll from LX console. Node is 10.105.35.147 Computer is 10.105.35.142 Same subnets, tried 255.0.0.0 and 255.255.0.0 and 255.255.255.0 N...

Yes, I've double checked output universe settings, and even outputting on an alternate universe.

I'm using the latest build of LX Console, but I'm having trouble sending Artnet. My network settings are correct, as the hardware works with other Artnet capable software installed, but I'm getting no response with LX Console. I've tried with the 10.x.x.x and 2.x.x.x network ranges with appropriate ...

Thanks,

I have yet to try again, but I am running my current show with LX Console, and I have to say it is a great product. Especially using an iPad with touch OSC as an interface for running faders and triggering cues.

The two things I'd like to see are:

A way to view channel hookups etc on an ipad, but with a basic artnet stack to be able to highlight units for a focus call, or notes session.

A remote cuelist/channel view of what is active on the console like an RVI

I may be missing something, but as I understand it I should be able to hookup LXConsole to the DMX output of my board, and use the live view as a poor man's RVI. Everything seems to be working as I see activity as the board op takes cues etc, but I get raw address coming through. Is there a way to p...
