Many of you can sing a song about it and even we have experienced it live in the context of one of our livestreams: in terms of availability and stability, the German internet has still not arrived in the 21st century. But what this has to do with DMXControl 3, we have put together in this somewhat different Live@Work.

Our April Fool's joke was the teaser for this news: Today we start on our YouTube channel with a new series of topics - general around DMX and lighting technology... in short: DMX Workshop.

In the next few weeks, we have two major trips on the schedule: Prolight & Sound in Frankfurt and our annual meeting near Rosenheim.

When you think of DMXControl Projects, you usually associate it very quickly with our Nodle interfaces and of course DMXControl. But according to our association goals we are much more than "only" hard- and software developers - and that's why we would like to start a new chapter in the history of our association: today we will officially launch "The DMXCP.univers(ity)".

The question in the title of the news you have probably already asked yourself: is there still news? From our side we have to say: yes but...

For a long time, we have only talked about it, now you shall finally see it in action: gRPC in DMXControl 3. And when? Already next Monday from approx. 20:00 o'clock - as always live on our YouTube channel.

We launch the DMXControl Discord Server!

Shopping is on everyone's lips - including ours. In the last few weeks, however, there have been various changes that we would now like to discuss collectively. Keywords: Shipping to other EU countries and Amazon's Smile program.

One or the other was present at our livestream to the DDFs or stumbled over it on our YouTube channel. Now that this livestream is already four weeks ago, we would like to remind you of it on the one hand, and on the other hand take a look behind the scenes, how the preparation for it went...

For many of you DMXControl 2 was the measure of all things for a long time. Due to the discontinuation of DMXControl 2 it was necessary to rethink how to continue. For our user Steff it meant to get familiar with DMXControl 3 and to adapt the previous one. How this developed, he has written together for you.

Around the turn of the year, it is traditionally time for a review of the year and also an outlook for the upcoming year. We also want to join this tradition again with this year's livestream at the beginning of January.

Frank recently had a gig in Berlin, even if he wasn't on stage himself. It was about the lighting of a classical concert of the Tonkollektiv of the HTW Berlin in the Emmauskirche to Berlin-Kreuzberg. Despite the simple lighting setup, there was a lot of applause for the musicians as well as some important insights. More about this in his short report.

Last month we sat for a long time again live in front of the camera and presented you news from DMXControl 3.3. Now, shortly before Christmas, we would like to give you something suitable for the holidays on the way. With coffee, cake, and cookies we build with you on 19.12.2022 from about 20:00 o'clock live on YouTube exemplary a few DDFs.

After a longer time, we would like to give you again a small insight into our current state of DMXControl 3.3 - in the context of our next Spot On edition on 07.11.2022 from approx. 20:00 o'clock!

Each new version of DMXControl 3 always introduces new exciting changes. But in exchange, our developer team also has to get rid of some old stuff, in this case: Windows 7.

The last few weeks the news has been more irregular than usual and it has been mostly Live@Work. An attempt to explain.... (and a little status update ;-) )

Today we have again a small Did you know?, which is about quite profane things, namely the window layout and additional windows in DMXControl 3.

When preparing an event, not everything always has to run smoothly, especially if you are not so experienced at it. Frank had to experience what such stumbling blocks can be at one of his last events. He has collected his experiences for you under the motto “failures, bad luck and mishaps - lessons learned”.

"Let's get ready to rumble!" - there is probably no better sentence, which stands more for the combat sport. At the Phoenix Fight Championship in the Rundsporthalle Baunatal this sentence did not fall, but it was a real highlight for all participants including our club member Stefan. How to experience such an event up close, you can read in this Live@Work edition.

For the first time in three years, a graduation party took place at the Platen-Gymnasium Ansbach this year. The technical support was provided by our community member Johannes. In this Live@Work issue he reviewed the whole project including ups and downs.
