  • @MBrulla
    @MBrulla День тому

    I think ApeLabs limitations are coming front and center now. MusikMode is easily the best built in lighting system on the market. That said, not having pixel mapping means they're going to be left behind by those who do offer it. These are basically just a brighter version of what they already have out there. I'm waiting for the W-APP to have the full MusikMode functionality (all groups respond individually) because I do have that...but right now? It's not as good as many other options, even just M/S the internal sound modes with multiple groups.

    • @kpodj
      @kpodj День тому

      The W-App does have full MusikMode functionality with all groups responding individually (as long as you're talking about Ape Labs lights). Just click "Lights" rather than "Connect" next to "MusikMode". If you update your W-App to the latest firmware, they added a second more intense version of MusikMode which brings the lights down to 0% rather than their traditional dimming on off-beats. If you're using the W-App with non-Ape Labs lights, you'll never be able to get the full functionality of MusikMode because the other lights don't have the hardware in them (so they can't talk to each other, they can only talk to the W-App). Only Ape Labs lights will be able to respond with the full light show functinoality of MusikMode. The main reason they made this feature was so you can bring some non-Ape Labs lights into your Ape Labs ecosystem. If you mix in a handful of non-Ape Labs lights with Ape Labs lights, you'll get a similar effect to them all being Ape Labs.

    • @AaronStrawn
      @AaronStrawn День тому

      I missed a bunch of these features- you also do not need the w-app to do updates! There's the ability to turn the green light off when off, and flicker mode. Lots of great stuff here!

    • @MBrulla
      @MBrulla День тому

      @@kpodj That's what I meant - using it to control non-ape lights. As far as if it ever could...no problem. Scenes are already divided into 4 unique groups, assigned by DMX address. Having MusikMode trigger each group at different times would achieve nearly the same result without requiring AL fixtures. Completely unnecessary to have each light be the mic. It would be very easy to implement, but it also would remove the barrier of spending significantly more on a single fixture to enter the ecosystem, so I don't blame them for not releasing it as a feature (yet). I could see sales for the W-APP rise significantly if that option were added, especially if they added the ability to control the W-APP with a remote, but how that would balance out over time is anyone's guess. What is certain is more and more people looking for a budget friendly AIO option, and at this point the WMX1 is the best option (other than internal sound/auto modes).

    • @kpodj
      @kpodj День тому

      @@MBrulla We asked them about this in the past, and they explained that it is impossible because the mics and chips in each light are essential for achieving a synchronized light show. The lights communicate with each other, sometimes pulsing in unison and other times only parts of the room pulse. Each light's mic helps analyze the room's sound, which is what makes them so unique. While a lower-quality version with grouping could probably be made, Ape Labs is committed to producing high-quality products and features behind the brand. If their focus were on being the least expensive option, they would manufacture their products in China like many others. However, this would compromise some product / feature quality. Similarly, using one mic instead of multiple would reduce the quality of their light show. Ape Labs items are premium products at a premium price, but the same people behind ape labs do offer a China brand called Prost Lighting. They offer a super, super bright hex color battery uplight called the MoonBox, at $179. If you're looking for an inexpensive option, that could be interesting. It doesn't have MusikMode or many of the Ape Labs features, but it is a great option if you just need something simple. We also have some uplights from JMAZ and Chauvet that are at a great price, as well as a few other brands. There are definitely plenty of budget options on the market, but there's always some sacrifice associated with the budget options in terms of quality and features.

    Can’t fight the laws of physics. We used to never worry about weight and loadout, only sound. You can compromise, but there are certain dimensions we may have to work within. Now we want it to be tiny and easy and give giant sound. Okay, EVOX12, ART and NX cabinets from RCF kill. So do the HDL line array. Go with one of those, or really throw your money down on Meyer. Lol. To me, the L1pro 32 sounds like scooped dog shit. Sub2 is alright, but that 32 column is weak and thin because it’s trying to cover 180 from floor to max height. We all have different ears and applications.
