Hi,

how can I control modul8 by DMX?
I have the enttec pro an it is recognised. Now I want to use a MA GrandMA to control the layers and the clips. But how can I set it up? Is there a chart like the midi or key control?

cheers,

Use The DMX ci tire module from The online library to pair DMX

Yes, you can control with the module "dmx fixture", I control through a hog 3 and works the same way as catalyst of high end, you can do scenes, cues, anything!

Hi,
thanks for the reply.
But I think there is something more wrong with the enttec and OSX:
I can get it recognized on my old mbp with 10.5.8 with the pro utility, but not with modul8.
On my mbp with 10.6. the enttec isn´t even found by the utility programm.
Under windows it works fine. :-( I have updated the enttec to1.44

So which OSX do you use? I read that there are some problems with 10.6. and the enttec?

Hi, i have a Mac os x 10.6.7 on my macbook pro...

- First you need Modul8 2.6 or later because this version support "dmx receive or send", then download enttec pro driver http://www.enttec.com/index.php?main_me ... =dmxusbpro

- Once you have the driver installed. Connect enttec pro, check that the DMX signal

- In the modul8 preferences under the DMX tab make sure you can see that the ENTTEC device is recognized and that modul8 is in "receive mode"

- Download from the online library "dmx fixture" If all is well should be receiving signals from your console, you can control and program your scenes video-lighting

This is really amazing because you can record light and video to the single cue, just that I love, enjoy!

cheers!
