Re: powerspot 250 lenses
Yes.. Your right!! You got me on this one. It says that you need to change the lens. However after years of working with these lights I wouldn't worry about it much. These lenses last years!!! Now if you have them in an enviorment with alot of smoke, cigarete smoke and daily use like a club or bar, then this lens will take a lot of abuse and replaceing it will improve your output. But if your a mobile guy doing shows on the weekends, I wouldn't be to concerned about replaceing this lens.

Re: Newbie looking for help/advice
Yes, you have 96 pages that you can add to 8 different books in different ways for each book. The console doesn't say how many pages per book, so I assume you can use as many as you want. Don't quote me on it though. Sometimes you will see something like number of steps per show or chase. So if it says 40 Steps per Show, that would mean each of your books can have 40 pages in it, but you can make up 96 different pages to use in the case of the DMX Operator Pro. Don't think of CompuLive so...

Re: design 108
I get what your saying. The problem I am running into now is if I should just go with a S4 par for the front wash lighting. If I do this I still need an LED light to add color when the S4's are off...this looks great when the singers aren't singing...you don't want them lit with a bright wash but you don't want them in the dark either. I wanted to find one fixture per side that would give me color and a good white wash. I bought the DLED 36WA but it doesn't give me a very good white. I...

Re: How do you select & Group of fixtures?
Hey E*dub, If I am following you right, it sounds like you want all of your LED pars setup to control all lights with color, strobe etc? To me it sounds like you just need to create a new page in compulive, and specify how many fixtures, and your start DMX address. Once the page is created, it will automatically control all lights at the same time on that page. You would then have to go to the “fixtures” tab on that page, and select the lights you would want to put into groups so that you...

Re: Chauvet COLORbank 4
The Profile named Bar Chauvet LED Bank4.ssl is the one you need. try that one. The Profile is spot on. To get RGB color mixing you need to have channel 1 on values 210-219 and then channels 2 3 4 will be RGB. Make sense? Sincerely,

Re: adj mega pixel help
ok i changed the channels to 2 different ones . but dose that mean i have to set up 2 different pages and if so then i can make both bars do the same thing at the same time right ? and yes im using compu live and im using the profile " mega bar 7 channel " is that the right one ? should i check the box that sayes matrix ? sorry for so many questions
Reply
Re: adj mega pixel help
What you need to do is create a new page. Select the profile, where it says starting address enter in the 1st fixtures address and then where it says number of fixture type in "2". That will give you one page but access to both fixtures. Mega bar 7 channels is ok. if you want more control go for a higher channel layout like 10 or 11 or something. i am not sure of all the addressing modes. no you do not need to matrix. questins are ok. Better than doing it wrong no? Sincerely,

Re: Compulive Future Updates - Multisource Lights

Re: LED fixture questions
Good to know, the tri led fixtures you guys have though look more like the led mega bar pro, where its just about 20 led "dots".

Re: LED fixture questions
This is something odd, but I'll post it anways. I recently acquired 4 ADJ Mega Bar 50's, and 4 Mega Panels. The Mega Bars still provide a somewhat "round" beam, at least in distance. Close up they definately wash wide. I had a bit of a time focusing these at a recent event. The Mega Panels, despite being rectangular, do provide a relatively round "beam". Yes, I know these are wash fixtures, but when you end up with a soft circle on the surface, it's rather strange to me. I know, the LED's...

Re: another potentially simple question
you don;t need to make new groups. The mega bar pro is already grouped for you. Do you see the numbers 1-9 underneath panel 01? If you click on any of those 9 that is the section you can control. you can even group a bunch of sections together to respond to the same dmx commands. Make sense? If you want me too I will post a screen video. Let me know. Sincerely,

Yes, I have. It's not there. Under the following headings: ADJ/MEGA SERIES there are two called Mega Bar 50 (one 6 channel and one 7 channel) but neither of those work correctly for this light. There are also some various Mega Bars listed in the main directory, but not this one. This is the MEGA BAR 50 RGB The RGB designation seems to be the one that sets it apart.

Re: How do I control the Pro Bar using MIDI?
Are you talking about the MEGA Bar Pro? I've got two of those and I really like them as well. There are no midi inputs on the Mega Bar Pro. I did a file search of the manual for the word "midi" and got no results. You can't control the MEGA Bar Pro directly with midi. Some controllers can be controlled by midi. And any controller that can be controlled by midi can controll your MEGA Bar Pro. So you can indirectly (through a controller) control your MEGA Bar Pro with midi, but not otherwise.

Re: How do I control the Pro Bar using MIDI?
Yes it is the pro bar 4 as James said. I have found a link to the Manual which is working. in the manual there is some descriptopn how to set up the bar to recieve MIDI, and the Signal LED flashes constantly when the first signal is send from my BCF2000 MIDI controller (Also tried with a USB MIDI interface with same result) what kind of signal does the pro bar need?

Re: How do I control the Pro Bar using MIDI?
Sorry for the confusion I added to the thread. I wasn't aware of this Pro Bar. This unit does have a regular midi input and a thru output (what comes in the in will be rebroadcasted out to another midi device if you want). You won't need any special hardware. It will respond to either DMX signals or midi note signals, but apparently not both at the same time - you've got to choose. On each of four separate channels the unit will do something when it recives a midi note on that channel...

Hobson, I saw the LTS-10 in the picture, but it looks like they pulled the top pole/vertical section off and stuck the pin on the Chase Bar down in the plastic clamp.
