      @@trentbell4999 was the LD & the audio guy for our assembly hall at school. Was a very cool time. Constantly advancing in that matter. Started of with a scenesetter 2448 and 6 led-pars and two 6-ch dimmers... In the end i bought 6 movingheads and Artnet-Interface. Huge difference in quality of the shows. But still very much to learn :D

    Hi mate! Love the video. Tried to do the red fade out like you did on the JDcs on the first cue 1:17:00 but the projector I use (MegaPointe) fades out in white and not in red. Think I've understood the orange colour merge you did afterwards but won't know if it works until I get the pointe to fade in red. Thanks

    Thanks Christian for a fantastic video!! I’m 17 and in grade 12 and just figuring out how to use timecode so I can timecode my last light show before I leave my school. I am by far the most experienced tech at my school as far as lighting is concerned so there is nobody to ask for advice or help. We run a MA dot 2 we’ve only had it since February. I’m unfamiliar with the MA2 but it looks very similar. You make using the MA gear look so easy. Would you be able to do a basics video for the command line? It seems to speed up your workflow. For example how you went Store>Cue>1>through>42 to get a cue list was a new one for me. Thanks again from Perth Australia 👍🏼

    I didn't get to watch this live and am only catching up now. but there was a question about updating individual fade / delay times. these fade and delay times can be stored as presets in each appropriate attribute pool and can then be updated like any normal preset. if that helps the person asking the question.

    Hi Crhis, I been waching a lot of your videos, learning a lot.
    I wanna ask you, the stuff that you record by playing the "ten" buttons, it records into the cue where you are at that time or it only records like in the timecode/frame animation?
    I hope I been clear, thank you so much, you are the GOAT.

    Hi ! Thanks for this Amazing vidéo. How do toi adapt your show for dimmer value. If i'm right you record dimmer in every cues. So if you have a powerfull fixture who remplace one of your fixture on your show it will be complicated to adapt every dimmer values your show even if you use group master.. How do you deal with that ? Are you just record dimmer at full in every cue ?

    Is there something missing at 3:15:10? There's a jump in the whole video o.Ô. Programming of Cue 4 is completely missing, I think.

    Is the timecode information the same when you feed it through reaper onto your consol as when you play it from a cdj?
    Thanks man.

      There are pages of executors. Use a different page for each song to get a brand new set of executors for each. He talks about it starting here: ua-cam.com/video/DxskAMEQUJg/v-deo.html

      Maybe by a few frames. Depends on how the system is set up. In some cases it’s faster than Ltc

      Store a delay value for the fixtures. In this case it is a range. 0sexonds to .1 seconds.
