DMX & MINI LIGHTING CONTROLLERS PART 1

A closer look into how mini controllers and DMX desks work with your lighting.
Sorry for the bad video editing .... I had to really chop it down big style to condense it into around the 10 min limit.

dude how many ights does he have???

[PRODUCERMAT]

@nikosksil just used 3 to keep things simple , ellakins has bloody hundreds............i know cos I have been round his house......most are still sat in their boxes lol.

Personally I only have around 40 or so, but to be fair most are now out of date now or are totally knackered.

Good times whilst it lasted but I have now retired from DJ'in, time to pass the "Baton" on to you guys.

Cheers

hey, do your acme dynamos sort of shake when the mirror tilts?

[PRODUCERMAT]

nope they dont , but its a double headed setup in the dynatwin and dynyaroll so they have a bit more weight to em' than the single headed dynamo its possible it may be normal for a single headed fixture to shake a little :)

[clubdude08]

hehe, sorry what i mean does the stepper motor for the tilt shake?, im just trying to find out so if it is not normal i will have to send the scanner back :)

[PRODUCERMAT]

I see , nope it doesnt on mine :)

do you love yourself?

[messymarvin96]

can you give me a link on where u bought the dmx lights and controller

[americaneagle791]

There is actually a difference between XLR (microphone cable) and DMX. The difference is the resistance. I guess for short runs like your doing, it's alright, but if your lights are farther apart, you will start to encounter problems.

Nice work

you probably know this allready, but just to let others know, you shouldn't use a mic cable, because although it will work, if you get interferance from other lights or signals (wich is more likely to happen using a mic cable) it will fry your chip inside it, completely ruining the entire light - just thought i should out it out there

u cant use micraphone cables because dmx cables are actually data cables and microphone cables are audio cables u cant use ,micraphone cables because they carry a bigger voltage or ohm than dmx cables if u open up a dmx cable u will find that it is like a see through usb data cable so if u use micrpphone cables for ur lights u have the risk of damaging the chip inside them :)
