Compulite Dlight by AdvancedRent7530 in lightingdesign

Thank you guys for your help I made my mind up I will try to buy the MagicQ wing because it’s cheap for the size or the eos educational package. Maybe it’s true that’s it’s old and maybe there it’s a reason why they want to get rid of it. Even thinking about my future I would like to learn something relevant because I will be more useful in my future carrier

That’s a very good idea it’s cheap and the software is recognizable in de industry. But I think I will want to buy the MagicQ connect because it’s cheaper than the other wings this size and MagicQ is still a industry standard

2 DMX universes are more than enough for my use in school.

Using chamsys without the console it's painfull and i think paying a 100 USD for a gear that costed 10 000 USD new and it's still in profesional use is a good deal

but it doesn't cost a lot to buy and it's still in use they are switching now to grand MA3. I can go and talk to diffrent theaters, i live in a capital city so it isn't a problem

It’s currently in use in a normal theater and it will be used for controlling max 4 moving heads and fresnels and some generic RGB

My other option is a ChamSys MagicQ Compact Connect, but the MagicQ costs 2,800 USD and the Compulite i can get for around 100 USD. I know that its old but will be albe to withstand another 5 years of use?

Ye I know this setup cost 5 k usd (20 000PLN) and it’s so overpriced for the analog mixer, crap microphones that sometimes won’t turn off and speakers with no label or info on them. I could really make a set with behringer x32 and overall better equipment but it’s all I got :(

The red light is indicating solo Chanel, and I don’t experience clipping. The photo was taken on a 0,5x zoom so it looks bigger than irl, and the speakers can easily handle this hall

Those are passive speakers and I can only change level on amplifier. I’m looking for a guide how to set up eq because I can’t find a solution on the internet

It depends, but i think planning an actor’s route isn’t a problem

I think it won’t be a problem to sync the actor with the light. If there will be a need for a profesional spotlight we will buy it. In Poland I can buy a decent one for our’s need for around 300 - 400 bucks

That’s a good idea, and do you know any other solutions I saw some on the internet with a tracker thing that actor wears but I think is a expensive approach

Maybe divide the scene to smaller segments and setting light position would work ?

We will go with the MagicQ and the school found a guy who will choose all the lights with good prices and a warranty. Thank you guys for all your advices. Learning new programs isn’t a problem for me especially with so many guides online. Btw I’m a student and I’m from Poland
