Hi guys,
I'm using MadLight in MM 2.2.2, and finding it really cumbersome and slow to select and move a large number of LED fixtures that were scanned in using LED Mapper. Just a bit of background:
* We have 160 custom PCB's that we're driving with PixelPushers from MM (via ArtNet-to-PixelPusher bridge).
* Each PCB has 115 WS2801's, for a total of 18,400 LEDs in the system for a large installation.
* I scanned in a pair of PCBs using LED Scanner, then used the "Duplicate selected surface" function to double the number of PCBs every time.
* We're using a brand new iMac with 2.8GHz quad-core Core i5, Intel HD Graphics 6200, 16GB LPDDR3 RAM and 256GB SSD
I'm up to 32 PCBs (3,680 LED fixtures), and the system is so bogged down that it's almost unusable. Just selecting half of these LED fixtures (1,840) and grouping them is taking a ton of time (it's been at least 15 minutes, and it's still not done).
I'd love some advice on the best way to manipulate this many LED fixtures. I'm not sure what's making the Mac bog down so much? Is there an advantage to grouping them? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
Kent
