Older software uses OLD drivers only. It will not work with latest new drivers.

NEW software ONLY uses new drivers. It will not work with the older drivers.

As Andre said - the DVC2 gold controller stores 8 of it's lightshows(scenes really) internally and these can be triggered from the buttons on the top of the interface or from 8 remote buttons via the HE10 port. You can also drive the controller directly via the DMX input port with another DMX desk (...

Can you not use the DVC2 Gold interface? It will operate 8 different shows stand-alone without a computer connection - useful if the PC crashes.

Yes, there are only the 2 removable processors on the PCB, they are both the same. Simply swap them over if the output one goes down.

Also if the DMX output chip goes down - remember to get you out of trouble you can swap the onboard DMX (out) chip for the one on the DMX (in) side of the controller. They are on removable sockets but make sure you get them inserted the correct way around.
Check for the notch or dot on the end.

Thanks for comments Andre.

I intend to do one showing how to run the BPM analyser to make it sound trigger - when I get the time.

The last video about creating a new fixture took all day to produce & get it right and easily understandable.

Follow the link to a set of quick start video tutorials for getting to grips with the basics of the DVC2 software. m If you can't make it work after watching these you are probably beyond help already...................... Only Joking! They are clear & simple tutorials designed to stop you pulli...

Anyone confused about creating new fixtures to add to the scanlibrary folder. Take a look at the 'you tube' video tutorial. www.youtube.com and search for Ryger DMX (part 6). My latest tutorial runs through the process from start to finish. Or go here for the full set of DVC2 quick start videos m Ad...

You need a simple cheap USB MIDI dongle plugged into your laptop. Run the MIDI dongle software and use it to then tell the Daslight software which scene to turn on & off. Run the Daslight DVC2 interface in Live mode - this is the only way for the interface to know what to do. You are effectively...

Hi all I have placed some quick start tutorials on You Tube for getting started on DVC2. They make it simple. m They are designed for the DVC2 software and controllers and also the 3D visualiser. If you find them useful I'll make some more about other aspects of the software. ALSO REMEMBER - don't t...

Hi As Andre said, simply interrogate the lighting fixtures by pushing the sliders up on the software one at a time. Write down what they do to the lighting fixture. When you eventually push one up that has no effect you will know how many channels it requires to operate. Normally the next fixture wi...

It works ok - try it out. You have to run the interface PC connected and use LIVE mode. Then it is a process of several simple bits. IT ONLY OPERATES WITH BPM ANALYSIS SCREEN OPEN. In LIVE screen right click on the scene that you want to trigger sound to light and select BPM to STEP. This will make ...

Another option, will Virtual PC run on Vista 64? you can then install any other operating system inside the safety of the Virtual PC program & put DVC2 in there to run it & maybe the driver will be recognised.

Not sure though.

Everyone has problems with Vista 64bit not as many manufactureres are supporting it software-wise.

Can you not create a dualboot system and put XP or normal Vista in the other drive partition. This will give you the option of running anything that 64bit Vista messes up.
