It happens to EVERYONE!! I've had it twice in a row (even after a complete debug of my rig after each show AND before the next one!)... Needless to say, I was having sleepless nights on the third show in a row but it did all work!! What I've done now is this: I've set up a seperate Daslight file to ...

Do you really need it to visualise correctly ? I like to when I'm trying to sell an idea to some prospective clients!! Joe public find it hard to visualise things like rotating gobos through 3 and 5 facet prisms with split colours! The only workaround I can do at the moment is to seperate it into t...

Scanlibrary Editor Gobo Selection + Gobo Rotation problem?!?

Hey there, Right, I'm trying to create a new fixture that has both rotation AND gobo selection on the same channel... I know how to make a fixture so that, for example, channel 4 is gobo selection and channel 5 is rotation speed/direction selection, but can you do both functions on the same channel ...

Nope... didn't work... I've tried everything! I've tried installing it via device manager as well as manually deleting the inf files etc... I've reinstalled the program, using different folder names too... I've cleared out everything from the registry that I can see relating to daslight... I don't k...

Hi Dan, yeah tried all that... I've found the manual for it now. Although it "says" it works in DMX 512 mode, it says in the small print that you need a DMX interface to convert the DMX 512 signal from Daslight into Martin Protocol... Now having trouble finding an interface because it's no...

Martin "Robocolor, 4 Heads" and Daslight

Hi there, I'm trying to link my old Martin set of 4 Robocolor lights to Daslight and nothing seems to work. The lights are controlled internally by a controller and you're meant to be able to plug it into any DMX 512 controller and operate them using it. Nothing seems to work though... Any ideas?? T...

haha Brilliant! Yeah they aren't using it properly though but never mind! (They aren't running it in live mode, just selecting each scene in the editor!)

I would tell them but I don't want to tread on anyones toes! Especially Charlie's! hehe! ;)

Didn't solve the problem!! :(

But, thanks for that program anyway!... It's cleared a LOT of junk out of my registry! None of it helped with getting the interface to work again though! :(

ANYONE ELSE KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THIS?!?!

ARGH!!! USB!!!

I just installed the latest beta ov DVC2 but decided to install it in a different location than the normal DVC2... It worked and took control of the USB interface but now, seeing as I didn't like it as much as the last fuill release version, I deleted it again... Now when I run the original version,...

I'm desparate for them to sort out the invert x/y problem in DL!!! It's so annoying... My lights are all over the place... Think I'm going to have to resort to flipping the fixtures around in the visualiser... Really annoying cos I've got a lot of scenes to reprogram then!! ARGH! :(

Ahh I see you're coming to the Brickies in Norwich in September! I'm seriously annoyed because I'm going to be on a stag trip that weekend! Would have been good to see your setup! Looks pretty good! The Brickies have a decent setup in house to be fair (and run Daslight funily enough! - that's where ...

Don't worry! I've fixed it...

But just in case someone else has the same problem, I needed a Phase reversing DMX cable between the DV2 Gold and the First Light... Then apparently normal phase cables from then on (if all the fixtures are the same!)

Problems with Martin Roboscan 812s and Daslight...

Hi there, I'm not sure if this is a software or hardware problem OR even the light itself! OR even user error!! I've just got my Daslight DV2 Gold through the post and am playing around with it... I've plugged it all in and also added just one Roboscan 812 scanner. I set the dip switches to channel ...

Where do I find the scan library editor?!

Sorry... I'm feeling really dumb... Where is the scan library editor??!?

I want to try and create an entry for my new Laserworld laser!
...unless someone knows if it's already been made?

It's a laserworld CS-400RGY...

Cheers,

Ben
