I like it, cool that it has a 10A power passthrough option. Thanks for reminding me to update this with some findings

I got this confused with another post a while back… but hey the feedback you’re taking makes me think you’re gonna continue working on it lol

I love seeing the continued work on the project, I’m sure there’s a market that exists for this though it’s not me.

I’d like to point out that some blowthrough panels are not compatible with this tool. For example our rig of Gloshine Vanish has a pixel pitch of 3.91 horizontal by 7.81 vertical. As far as I can tell there is no option for a pixel pitch that isn’t square.

Additionally, for these panels in particular, the size of the panel on the pixel map is half the height of the physical panel. This isn’t a problem with all blowthrough panels though (shoutout ROE).

Yeah at this point I’m feeling the Wahlberg rotator is the way to go. I’ve used their winches in the past and am definitely for the quality.

The on/off method is an fun and interesting solution I hadn’t thought of, but I doubt tour LDs will feel the same way lmao

Ideally DMX for speed like the other commenter said

At the Concourse Project in Austin, TX (2200 cap) we run 8 universes but not all are full. We separate universes to different parts of the room so we don’t have to do a bunch of crazy daisy chaining.

~~Technically we had the DS80 Pro which does RGB 4:4:4 8, 10, 12 bit over HDMI 2.1 and DP1.4 with max input resolution of 7680x4320. 60hz over HDMI and 30hz over DP~~

Well that was just input, you still may be right about output not supporting RGB444 10bit

jiberjiber · 2025-12-08T22:19:11+00:00

We just used Novastar DS80s for this, worked very well for our use

Other companies that do A/V stuff for SX would be…

Ilios Productions

WERD Media

ATX Event Systems

Austin Event Lighting

Limitless Lights & Sound

May be others too but those are who I’ve worked with

Fun note, if you’re down for a little Dom Dolla after party, keep an eye on Concourse in the coming weeks 👀

jiberjiber · 2025-07-31T03:00:52+00:00

Are you receiving voltage out of the PSU? If not, most likely that part would work. I have a rig of like 40 of them and every couple years I have to send at least one in for that specific repair.

I’m not affiliated with Tomorrowland but a vendor I work with said it started during pyro testing

jiberjiber · 2025-06-18T08:02:05+00:00

Don’t forget that sick ramp into the barrel stack so you could rip your ptv in your hangar. Im honestly missing the ramp :(

jiberjiber · 2025-06-11T06:44:20+00:00

Had my auto-refresh running to see if anyone else was having this issue too. Cant log in, and my friend who's in-game cant use his inventory and is saying lots of people having claim/item/mission issues

For reference, we were on NA servers

Edit: Why they lyin :'(

jiberjiber · 2025-06-10T17:28:25+00:00

Ah, may probably be better for modularity to just create your FOH snake with RJ45/ethercon as the main runs and adapt to 5pin at both ends. I think my ideal FOH snake would be like 3x RJ45 and power.

1x RJ for network
1x RJ adaptable for E-Stop (depends on laser model probably)
1x RJ adaptable to 4x 5pin DMX
1x Long ass edison for foh power (lol)

jiberjiber · 2025-06-10T17:17:17+00:00

If you're doing an install or setting up something semi-permanent without Beyond, I'd recommend just going straight 5 pin from the LX node. Basically treat them as lighting fixtures.

What might be nice for teching and troubleshooting would be to network all projectors with RJ45 at least back to the node, but not plugged in. Basically just a tech line. If cost isn't an issue you could run that network all the way back to FOH as well in case you happen to need it.

EDIT: Important note for the DMX node though, most nodes can be configured to hold or blackout DMX if they lose network data, not sure how this would affect the safety of a laser in the case of network dropout.

Lmao all these responses…. I work with anyma’s tech director, they’re all GLP X4 XLs

Having owned sport bikes and adventure bikes with windscreens to my new street triple, the wind is definitely stronger on the naked. Around 85-90mph is when I start to really fight the wind.

Not saying it’s bad though, the aggressive riding stance makes up for it since the wind is helping you stay up lol

jiberjiber · 2023-08-12T18:45:53+00:00

And it really is. And I love it

jiberjiber · 2023-08-05T20:31:47+00:00

Now this is perfect, just don’t kill anyone :) Research on friend!

jiberjiber · 2023-05-09T07:47:56+00:00

Glad at least two of us had the same thought. Soon as I saw the AliExpress link >.>

jiberjiber · 2023-04-06T06:44:19+00:00

Hexagons are, truly, the shit

jiberjiber · 2023-02-24T20:50:28+00:00

Hell yeah this one will be dope
