Using Glediator with Nutcracker

Glediator stands for Graphical LED Installation AnimaTOR and is a small piece of software to control led matrix and led stripe installations. This software was developed by Solderlab for use with their matrix hardware.

However the program does support a way to record effects created with Glediator. Nutcracker now has a feature added that will allow for the importation of these recorded effects into Nutcracker sequences. To take advantage of Glediator and its effects you will firsts need to download and install the program.
