OK...second time out with the LightRider app and the LR512...I'm slowly becoming impressed.
Last Friday was the first outing and the connection between the LR512 and the iPad kept dropping. The problem could only be cured by resetting the LR512 which meant the lights went out briefly (it wasn't transmitting as a Wi-Fi hub for some unknown reason). I don't know why it was dropping (suspect Wi-Fi interference) but it only appeared to happen when the app was left without any interaction (i.e. left on a background wash for more than 10 mins without something in the app being touched...almost like Wi-Fi going to sleep).
Tonight - a different story. No drop outs on the iPad (the Amazon Fire Tablet was a different story...I need to look into that one), and everything worked perfectly. The only fault I can find at the moment is that it occasionally takes a couple of seconds between pressing a button on the app and the lights responding (oh...and that I have fat fingers which aren't always registered on the touch screen). Other than that, I'm MORE than happy with the investment.
I even dared to play with some of the ad-hoc programs tonight rather than the programmes I'd saved. I'm really impressed - this particular app can only go from strength to strength.
Peter - I know you're still using old fashioned hardware controllers.....this is one you really need to look at. It does literally EVERYTHING for you and from nothing more than telling it what fixtures you're using....creates an AWESOME light show right out of the box with no programming required!
Hi....i have an Art-net interface to DMX ELCBuddy. My question, can I use it with Light Rider, or Daslight4? If so, what conditions must be met to achieve this (purchases of lincenses?)?
