DMXControl

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.

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.

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.

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.

Today's Did you know? is about the release time of a cuelist and its little hidden feature.

We told you that we talked to various manufacturers at this year's Prolight + Sound to move the whole project forward. At this point, a direct thanks to Luminex and Trendco!

After the long pandemic phase without performances, the first concert of the Collegium Musicum Baden-Baden took place recently. One of our members was there and contributed the lighting part.

If there is chaos in the stage view, order is restored quite quickly with two to four devices. But what if I need to reorder 20 devices or more?

Now that the beta test for the upcoming version DMXControl 3.3 is running, we would like to take a first look into the future - and need your support and opinion.

With DMXControl 3.2.0, German finally found its way into the user interface thanks to a reasonable implementation solution. However, this does not remain so with DMXControl 3.3.0. Therefore, the question: Est-ce que tu parles français? Oui, bien sûr. Je parle français aussi. Et DMXControl 3.3.0? Bien sûr, également.

Our developers are still working hard on our new DMXControl 3.3 version. So today we can announce a good, but also a bad news. Read all about that in this news.

Today we will look at a comparatively small setting, but one that reduces the complexity of the Input Assignment in some cases.

The pandemic continues and the traditional Christmas services still could not be held in the hitherto known framework. So once again the variant "Gottesdiest under the open sky" came into play. In this Live@Work, we take a closer look at one of the outdoor Christmas services and what challenges the rain posed.

Our development team continues to work diligently on the upcoming version for DMXControl 3. In the first weeks of this year, there was even so much time available that our systems really ran hot - despite partly difficult circumstances. A review and a thank you.

TBD

When someone tells you that they want to see white on stage or in the show, this statement may seem quite plausible at first glance. But is this really the case? And what has DMXControl 3 to do with it? The answers are given in this Did you know?

In today's "Did you know?" edition we will dive into the Input Assignment for the first time and shed light on the purpose of various nodes. We'll start with the split node.
