Hi! Im new to this forum. have some questions respective the dmx feature in general and synch between video and light.
For better understanding i attached 3 graphics of the set up or rather stage.
Pictures:
What you see is the sketch of my diploma. Mixture between video and light-show. sorry i don´t get pictures into the post. do i have to switch html to "on"?
1 First graphic is just for the mood. Colors are limited to white, black and the mixture inbetween.

description: the only attribute thats relevant here in this topic, is that video and light have to be synchronal.
If you need more information, just ask.
questions:
1. I don´t get the dmx feature. Do i need the enttec, to get startet or is there something like a simulation tool?
Someone knows good tutorials about the use of dmx in generel and especially for M8?
2. Is it possible to create light scenes, which describe a selected progression. Conditions like fade from 0% (light off)
to 100% (light on) in combination with the time.
3. Is it possible to synch video and light. My association is: I press a button, the selected video starts and automatically
the assigned light scene begins to run. Whats about two computers, one runs modul 8 and the other runs modul 8 or
another dmx software. could i controlle both with one i-pad (touch osc). example: i touch a button on the ipad.
on the first computer it gives the impulse to star a assigned video on the other computer it give the impulse to
paly a dmx scene.
i thank you for you answers or helpfull links[/img]
