Ok bought daslight havin a we play about with it.....

Question..What if your fixture is not on the list what the hell do i do..

can i make my own?

Kam led800s 12ch

Prolight led 64 4ch (think i found a fixture that seems to work with this one tho) just would like to alter the icons to what they really do and no what the presets of the other fixture is

seems to be a well packed bit of hardware so thanks for the advice on the purchase of this one(anyone want to by my dmx freestyler lol simple easy to learn)

I use it, well I say use.. i bought the dongle with the intention of using it on my rig at every gig, but haven't built a machine to use it on yet. However, I know the software well and have used it live on a few occasions.

Its streets ahead of Freestyler, which was buggy and completely unreliable for me, but then what can you expect for free?

Yeah, for LED par cans! I also said that scanners etc. were a bit of a pain (although not with software), pars on the other hand are easy and hardly any effort with an el cheapo DMX controller.

Does anyone know whether Daslight can sync to an external MIDI clock signal?

I spoke to Vianney at plasa this year, they are doing alot more with the midi functions, i was very impressed to see a midi controller controling sliders on screen. Daslight themselves have a forum would be worth posting on there!

Oh and if you are having trouble with fixtures there are also updates available on the site, if not i can knock one up quite quickly as long as you have the instruction manual for the light!
