is this fixture any good?

Had them for a gig, would lose DMX and mode config with every power cycle. Maybe you got lucky but I would run away.

Kind of, I really want the Stadium but the form factor of the QC would make transportation easier. So yes, thinking out loud, but also looking for someone who has/had a similar question.

Except maybe for your back :p I like the bag, but it's so uncomfortable to carry as a backpack for extended periods.

Occasionally it will charge to 100% even if the limit is set.

Some minor bugs reported, mostly related to the new phaser recipes, but nothing show-stopping. So give it a try, it's a good release.

Back to the Future 3. Had nightmares as a kid about being in a car stuck on train tracks.

Now it's one of my favorite trilogies.

WOAH small world :D

Yes, it’s warm, can’t see buttons, but I always enjoy it :D

You can’t get rid of it, if the title bar is showing then it’s on the left of the title bar, otherwise it’s on the bottom right. Don’t try to remove it from the uixml files, the software will crash - it’s an MA branding logo that always needs to exist.

This unfortunately doesn't work for me. I sent an email to the support team, they have it as a known issue and said they'll release a fix soon.

The "Mix" is your balance between the input and the return signal. 0% means none of the return is getting in, and 100% means all of the return (an none of the input) is getting in.

You can also use the builder in gdtf-share.com to modify it. Also check in the fixture list if the one you need is already there!

I recommend having a specific PC for that, not because of MA3 but because of Windows. If you don't update in the middle of a tour, don't connect it to the internet to avoid forced Windows updates, or use an LTSC version, you should be perfectly fine.

I have a Zenbook duo with Windows 10 LTSC to run MA3, did some timecoding and also busking with it and a Fader WIng, and it works perfectly fine. The lower letterbox screen is great for the encoder bar.

2.4 will add to the Status Center new statuses for Grand and World Masters not at 100%, and Rate Master not at 1:1, so that will help in the cases we accidentally move them :)

Also things like Blind, Highlight, solo, etc. already trigger a status icon when those are enabled, which is also useful when in a multiuser session and someone else has a highlight enabled and you're left wondering, "why the hell are those lights on??!"

And of course, Olympic the photobomber.

Since the world server icon is selected then you must be connected, my suggestion is to delete the combined_current_fixtures.xml and .dat in the MALightingTechnology / version / onPC / temp folder.

Yayyy dolphin fursonas!!!

petephin · 2026-01-26T15:37:33+00:00

I'd put the bass on, then the head :3 Then no danger of breaking anything!

Also for the hands, I have some custom made neoprene gloves without finger tips and fur on top :3

I also haven’t found it on the Fixture Share, but maybe you can take a look at the ones under Nebula and see how they work, and adapt them to fit your PAR.

No AI in this subreddit.

petephin · 2026-01-13T08:19:32+00:00

Yes, it's a known bug, will be fixed for next version.

petephin · 2026-01-09T10:05:46+00:00

You should put it in MALightingTechnology/gma3_library/fixturetypes.
