In the future, this will all be done with 2 "core" boxes, maxed out Mac Pros probably (2 for redundancy). 0 consoles needed assuming everything is timecode. All the designers design from in their kitchen and then upload to the server for playback. If you need to design lie with the real rig, you just get an ethernet line from the core to commandeer. It's like, first principles thinking: what is the physical limitation requiring 20 full sized consoles? What is the actual amount of processing TRULY needed? If you quantify it from first-principles, then you realize it's just bytes. That's all it is. Just bytes. Then you look at CPU. It's just CPU. How much CPU do you need just to transmit the bytes? Assuming everything is timecode, all the bytes or manufactured remotely. Then you look at, what's the most amount of bytes you can send over ethernet? It's a lot of bytes. Look at 4K video for example: that's a crap ton of bytes. If you look at the math, a 4K video signal over cat6 is transmitting the equivalent of like 33,000 universes. So that's like, a lot. A lot of universes. So the limitation here is clearly not bytes, it's something else. So that's why in the future this is all done from a single box that you connect to via a media server, cloud, and/or single cable.
Hey😊, thanks a lot for your question. You are right, the showfiles of big productions or shows in general are always very helpful and inspiring. But of course it is not our showfile and it is the same with intellectual property and copyright. What we will do a bit more in the future is to provide some videos where we can explain some things of these showfiles, of course always hand in hand with the programmers and designers who own their work.
What is this "MA license" and software he is talking about? Can't seem to find anything online ua-cam.com/video/Wi0wEcMD2dQ/v-deo.htmlsi=oyctTrOis2uU1Tqj&t=319
Hey gomethrius, the showfile involved over 200,000 parameters of control across 682 DMX universes of output and 663 universes of Art-Net input from the Disguise video servers. If you want to read more about this, you can take a look at our article on our website 😊
Tue has been an incredible help in the move from 2 to 3 and great to see him being recognised for his skills
So nice to hear that! 😊
TUE! So happy to see his platform grow. He's been one of the most influential people in helping folks learn GrandMA3 and it's entire system.
Nothing but respect for everybody involved! 💥💥💥
💯😊

As an MA3 programmer, this man is the goat!
Grreat job! Thanks for sharing
😍🙌
You guys should definitely make the Eurovision showfile available for people to look at, especially people wanting to improve with MA3!!!

MA Lighting Is Ruleing Worlds Biggest Lighting Shows in the world,with Their power full hardware and softwares is ( grand ma2 and grand ma3)
What is this "MA license" and software he is talking about? Can't seem to find anything online ua-cam.com/video/Wi0wEcMD2dQ/v-deo.htmlsi=oyctTrOis2uU1Tqj&t=319

I suspect hes refering to Luminex Araneo which is a networking tool and has a MA Net License to also monitor and manage MA gear in the network.
Are you allowed to say how many used parameters in the showfile??

The video content is very interesting, but the background music is not necessary, it makes it harder to follow.
fly me out and and let me borrow a console and i’ll be the best one there
Sounds like you already have a precise plan 🙌😄
