I am going to add some of my existing props to DMX and just make them flash on and off in time with the music. The pixels are the show, I am just giving my 3 existing deer some sequence data.
Figured I'd start small and try a very basic card with Port 3 on my F48. The video online for the Colorful USA (see link) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBGnXHgWcAM&t=1006s
I can get it to do what he suggests, but he is showing the sequence all on one line. That means I can't copy and paste any other FX that have notes that may overlap. And THAT means I have to recreate a sequence just for my DMX props. It's either 1, 2, or 3 or all of them at any given time.
Does anyone know how to make each DMX port work independently of the other so it can do a separate sequence track that may have FX at the same time as say, channel 1? I tried layering all on the same row, and that works but again, only when each channel is on separately. I would like to do a row of General DMX 1, General DMX 2, and General DMX 3 (one for each deer) and each deer would flash to a different copy of an existing sequence row, just copy and paste into a row of DMX and switch that line to DMX from on.
Or is that impossible with this card?? Again, coloful usa DMX card that gets data from F48 DMX Port 3 output.
Question: If it has 512 channels, why can't you assign 1 channel to each row of sequence or assign them. I know it only has 3 on and off relays, which is fine, but can it only play one at a time or all at once?? I have a feeling that is where mapping comes in?
?
Anyone??
