Built this little gadget for a friend :wink: there’s a selector on the box that enables it to either run from artnet or presets, the box also has dmx out so that I can position PAR cans around the vocal position and they take on the colour of the mic stand :slight_smile:

Thank you :slight_smile:

I especially like the effects where you have (for lack of a better way to describe it) a “blob” of color pulsing along the stand, with a different background color.

With artnet it’s really easy to pixel map everything, I have a program that digitises a video in to rgb values then sends them to my lighting software, this then sends the colours out to the strands by artnet and the effect is pretty awesome :slight_smile: like this >>>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA4Q2XWJRko

What hardware did you use? Arduino? Looks great, I like your idea to have DMX out to some par cans.

yeah I’m using UNO’s with the wiznet shield, with dmxsimple you can read a portion of the artnet buffer out to DMX or replicate the lot out to dmx, my plans for the future are fully wireless and multiple dmx outputs from a single arduino but I’m struggling modding the dmxsimple library to use more than one pin :frowning:
