Comments:
The hardest part was converting back and forth between Vixen and XL/NC.  I add my RGB to Sequences I have been adjusting over the last 4 years.  As I move to more RGB and keep my old stuff I hope to be all XL/NC.  XL/NC saved so much time.  I have always used XL for my scheduler and I would convert the XL/NC to a .vix file and then add it to existing Vixen file.  I would than convert back to XL for the scheduler.  Vixen cannot handle the channel counts for sequencing.  When doing a new song I would sequence all of my DMX in Vixen and then follow the same process for converting and adding the RGB with XL/NC. Though it sounds like a process it did give me the ability to use the preview windows in both programs in real time.

Sean, all I can say is I wish I had the space for all of the border and arches. I am really interested in the candles.  I am also thinking about Halloween. Do you think it would be possible to use the 9' Nutcracker and make a 9' Frankenstein?
