Daryl, you on God Mode. You just made something so valuable. Thank you for elevating the game bro.
Haha thanks man! Doing what I can
Btw, love your videos
Daryl man I need some serious inspiration for my auto loops. You doing these videos are just first class. Us djs are not all lighting engineers, so many thanks
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching
Thanks for this. New to Soundswitch and learning.
Welcome to the journey! :) :)
My man! Much needed thanks!
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thank you bro ❤ Best tutorials about SoundSwitch and Control One. Greetings from Germany
Glad you like them!
Welches mischpult benutzt du mit soundswitch?
This is super awesome
Thank you!
Thank You for sharing
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Awesome! Really excited for the video on adding our own uplights and movers. I've tried doing it, but they don't seem to add the light show characteristics when I drag them onto the folders. Thanks Daryl🙌🏼
My pleasure! I'll get it out soon!
Until then, you can add uplights into the first group. They'll start getting the design of the uplights. But they won't automatically start doing chases, you'd have to copy those over manually.
Movers are a little more involved, but you basically create a new group of two and copy one of the existing groups and then add your movers to the existing attribute cues
@@DJDarylBennett I actually mapped my uplights to the Both profiles. The freedom par hex have a 6-channel mode and the colors seem to match.
I'm nervous to do the movers though. I have the battery-powered Free Spot 60. I wonder if they would map similarly to the Intimidator 260 or 360 profiles you have in the program? I'll also let you know how the tubes work out when they arrive:)
Amazing info! I’m curious how long the process takes to do everything? I have a gig this weekend and want to use it!
It’s minimal effort if you have the same fixtures and not too bad depending on which fixtures you have.
How can I get some pricing on your preset packs?
I have 2 gigbar moves + ILS, 2 shehds 80watt movers, and 4 pars (rgb)
Daryl, thanks so much for another excellent video! I run my lighting, show for my band from Ableton live. Can I use sound switch with a ableton to sync all my lights with the playback of my backing tracks, for my life band performances? Than you!
Thank you for watching! With Ableton link you can sync the music's bpm to SoundSwitch, but SoundSwitch will only play the autoloops. (Which is what I've done with bands in the past)
But if you play your backing tracks in Serato or virtual dj, then you can sync custom tracks.
can you make a video on how to customize the visualizer how to add fixtures and make them look like the fixture, I can find a good video of the visualizer, I can get it going but don't look right if you know what I mean, great job by the way. can you also explain how to work with 2 universes with the control one
Thanks for the idea! I'll consider making a video on that
Hi Daryl, I'm waiting for 8 Uplighs (IR4) and 2 Head Beams (MH-150S) from your list. How should I daisy chain them? If Head Beams are connected by wires to the DJ controller will wireless transmitter in the second Head Beam work (not even need receiver)? Or I have to connect wireless transmitter to the DJ controller and then have receiver on the first Head Beam?
The most convenient way is to have your wireless dmx transmitter out of your dmx controller and have wireless dmx receivers into your movers
Hi Daryl. Was thinking of getting your shortcut software. Will these presets work with equinox spectrapix battens and 7x40 4in 1 bee eye moving heads? If not can I add them and still use your presets? Or are they only for specific fixtures. Sorry, still learning.....
You can add them, I have a video coming out tomorrow that shows the process and then you can decide if it’s worth it to you
If I purchase the SS dongle ($39), do I still need the Control 1 to control my lights? Another DJ on facebook said that getting only the SS dongle was a waste because the SS software within Virtual DJ will only allow you to control programmed loops only. So ultimately, the Control 1 is a must? Or can I simply use the SS dongle & software that can connect to Virtual DJ? I'm trying to avoid having so many gadgets in my setup. Also, trying to avoid hooking up two laptops or an extra tablet to control simple light operations. Thanks for your valuable info.
You can start out with the dongle. You can manually control the SoundSwitch software from your computer, just during a performance you’ll have to switch back and forth
Is there a reason you still use MA2 3D rather than MA3's integrated visualizer? I got MA3 up and running together with SoundSwitch, but wonder if there's any benefits to the older version
If it ain't broke don't fix it it lol grandma2 is still working awesomely for me. Any benefit to upgrading you think?
Can you important your own autoloops into the control one for standalone mode?
Yes but standalone mode requires connection to a computer that has SoundSwitch software installed
Why are you using 6x18 profile for the IR4s uplights? I checked SoundSwitch and the IR4s have their own profile.
Also, are the IR4 best used in 10 channel or 6 channel mode? Thanks
Because that was the profile I used for my guys' both lighting uplights before I got some
Hey Daryl The paypal link seems not to be working. to purchase the presets
Daryl this may be a dumb question but if I get your settings how does that work with tracks I’ve auto scripted? Will I need to re-auto script? Or will the auto scripting now take into account all of these different settings you have programmed?
You'd need to re auto script everything. Luckily thwts pretty automated!
Cool …so does it just take into account all the attribute cues etc that you have added and than apply them in the new auto scripted track?
Where do I get this ? or how do I purchase what you are selling
What visualizer are u using⁉️⁉️⁉️
Grandma2 ma3d, have a tutorial on my channwl
Any china brand fixtures in the autoloops? lol😊
Definitely
How are the laws for "cold" spark machines where you are ? NY needs So much paperwork and insurance and permission to do it and a fire marsh to be on site.... UGH !
It's still very much the wild west out here. Many venues still allow them. I always check. When I first started asking the fire Marshall of one of the cities I was in and he was confused
please get in contact with me. I am interested in purchasing your sound switch lighting program.
