Re: Random Flicker Issue

Review your fixture layout. Try to identify where in the line the fixtures are located. I've seen flicker issues come from non DMX cables being used, and fixtures going bad. You can open the DMX level chart to view the DMX output values to verify what outputs are being sent.

uploading to memory

As long as I can remember everytime I go to upload scenes to the interface, the scenes that are there always get erased. Say I upload scenes from show A to page 1 of the ultimate interface. Then I want to upload scenes from show B to page 2. When I load up show B, even though the scenes I'm uploadin...

Re: Fixture Preset not showing in 2nd Fixture

Still using Oct 22 beta, I got it to do it once. The mx4 colors were different between the first fixture and the second fixture. I removed the fixtures and re-patched them and they worked fine.

Re: Hello form a noob

Yeah Lumidesk has been around since late 2007 and early 2008. So it's still a young product. The forum is even younger. Lumidesk is pretty simple to use with basic functions. So alot of people don't need to seek help. The more complex use lumidesk gets, the more need for help from forum users. There...

Re: New Lumidesk Beta Available!

So far I'm enjoying the new beta. But the window won't maximize on my screen. To scroll down to other presets, I first have to slide the preset window to the right so I can access the preset scroll slider. May be my screen resolution (1024x768), but I've always been able to slide the desktop seperat...

Re: Fixture Preset not showing in 2nd Fixture

Seems to run fine on my desktop. I can select each mx4 seperatly or together. Test with your interface connected but with no fixtures, connected with fixtures, and with the interface not connected to your computer (demo mode). Do you have the same problem?

Re: Problem with April Beta?

Ok....so I figured it out. I clicked on the hardware button on the configuration tab and had to connect Universe 1 to the dmx output of the interface. No idea how or why it was disconnected. But that was the problem.

Tonight I attempted to run the current beta with my Martin Mini Mac Profiles and could not get any response. I then loaded the September Release and my mini macs responded correctly. Any ideas?
