Help with light board for home use - non professional!

sethdavidsmomMember

We have a music room with stage in our home. Son has 6 different lights (strobe, disco ball, etc...) that we would like to plug into one control board and set to the beat of music.

Any suggestions for a budget friendly board to acheive this? Each of the existing lights have regular 110 v plug.

Any advice / help is much appreciated!

Hi Seth. Welcome to the forums.
If your current lights do not have
DMX ( a 3 or 5 pin port that looks like a microphone cable plug) then you will need a Dimmer/Switch pack. Then with the switch pack you would plug in your lights power plug and then use a DMX board like the ADJ DMX operator. Take a look at the following links:
Dimmer/Switch pack: http://www.elationlighting.com...mmers%20and%20Relays
DMX board: http://www.elationlighting.com...20By%20American%20DJ
and also a good guide is the DMX 101 PDF we have.

You could try to install a (Link removed by moderator) that connects all the other lights together, that should do the trick.

a simple stage setter 8 stage pak would be perfect for just doing what you are thinking. there are 8 chases that can be programmed and a tap tempo button to easily set the timing to the music
