Daslight Forum

Following on from the iphone thread i'd like to offer good reports on the Automap software now available on the App store as a midi controller for daslight. the app costs £1.59 & gives you unlimited pages of 2 sliders and 8 buttons. You simply run the automap software on your pc and start the ip...

I'll give it a try next week, i have the Daslight Gold system already. I was asking cos i'm only gonna install windows to use Daslight with ITouchmidi, it has a 4x4 or 8x8 set of buttons which would be perfect for scene triggering wirelessly. I'll post my results here when i can but would be interes...

Hi all.

Has anyone seen the itouchmidi application, to be able to use that wirelessly with daslight to trigger scenes would be pretty damn cool.

So has anyone managed to get the software working with windows installed on a mac yet before i bother trying - either using bootcamp or parallels?

You need something like 3s Studio Max or Cinema 4d for the mac if you want full motion 3d renders of stage layouts.

Yeah its a work around i suppose but as i said it is conference work which requires the lights to be as quiet as possible at all times, and even Martin Macs make noise when they are spinnng around. Its not a major problem as i can always trigger a new static scene with no audio file associated and t...

The feature to play back an audio file while triggering a scene is a pretty handy feature for my conference work. Its particularily useful at awards ceremonies. Being able to trigger an audio sting while making the lights go flashy flashy all by pressing a single key is really useful, and using flas...

Hi

Just wondered if you'd like to tease us with a few new features you're working on for the new release, i know you said better midi functionality, are there any other killer features we can expect?

Spill the beans Vianney

Hey BK! I love the projector visuals. What software do you run to control them? Controlling that plus Daslight at ther same time must require some dexterity - are you an octopus by any chance? our drummer is actively looking for more dates in other places. Who knows, the midlands may be within our ...

Yes it makes sense now, sorry thats a bit advanced for me at present, today was the first day i've really got stuck into Daslight, if i find anything before Vianney posts his reply i'll let you know.

I'm still learning my way around the software myself so forgive me if i'm stating the obvious, or have mis-understood the problem Is this a release issue, is the Red only scene still on when you hit the green one? or does the mode need changing in live view, you can select ltp, htp, auto, dmx in or ...

Hi Vianney

Excellent news thank you, i will await the new release with anticipation.

If you need testers for the midi functions i'll be happy to have a go when you're ready with a beta.

Hey SmokeAndMirrors, seems we're in the same game, i do lights & visuals for a "tribute act" (dont you hate that phrase). I bet you've got your work cut out for you running a lighting rig for a Pink Floyd Act, you must have a huge truck of moving heads/mirrors & lasers. I play/work...

Thanks

Its mainly the faders i wanted to use in Daslight, so i can set up scenes quickly, to save me buying a dmx desk
The live window has all the midi info for triggering scenes and sequences via midi or keyboard but i cant see how i can use midi for faders
