    What do you think?

    I got LSX and Fiesta.Net for laser shows.
    I would like to know what's the "best" software for light fixtures

    I have seen the Pangolin QM2000 used to run lights in addition to lasers.

    Ld 2000 is a poor excuse for a lighting controller. It is fine to trigger a smoke machine or a strobe but you would not want to do any kind of performance with it.

    That link looks ok as far as pc lighting controllers goes. I prefer lighting desks, depends on what you are trying to do.

    Sunlite Suite 2 is very good. Download it and play around with it. I have not experienced a time yet where the software did not have the capability to do what I needed it to do.

    If you have any specific questions about it's capability shoot.

    Yes, I downloaded it.

    It has a beautiful interface, Microsoft.Net style, like Office.

    I would like to see this type of interface on LSX and Fiesta.Net too.

    It's really simple to use and powerful.

    On Facebook Nicolaudie guys told me that have few ideas to develop a software for ilda lasers.

    Ohh that would be sweet if Nicolaudie did that. Although I'm loving Pangolin Quickshow right now. It would just be cool if Nicolaudie had an add on ILDA software for SS2 so that you could have all of your lights and lasers running on the same timeline and in the same scenes.

    You know some Pangolin products have a DMX input, right?

    Yes......I haven't tried it yet though. Plus I really like the Quick Show interface for controlling the lasers. Do you have any experience with controlling Pangolin through DMX?

    Not for some years now actually, and I'm not really a fan of it, or similar 'Windows' style PC DMX solutions.

    It's all about Chamsys MagicQ if you ask me. Short of owning an actual console, its the only one to have (imho). In fact, I'd rather have it over a number of dedicated consoles... but then it is actually console software.
    You are using Bonetti's defense against me, ah?

    I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain.

    Here are the DMX input options with QuickShow:

    Aha,sunlite suite, I like it, a wonderful DMX software and convenient for users to LIVE control light device,multimedia playback and timecode syc..
    Like LD2000,the sunlite suite is deep with its strong function.
    Suite2,I has downloaded it,and it is stronger and deeper.Better I like it cause of its future software interface.
    I like to use them,especially in multimedia laser show,the laser,the light ,the video projector or LED screen and the music,make up a whole wonderful show in realtime.
    That's great,I recommand.

    1++ for Sunlite, I own 2 hogs and a grandma and this software has bailed my ass out of so many situations it isn't even funny. You can have a step by step show up in literally seconds should a pre-programmed show fail to run off of faulty hardware or issues beyond your control with other dmx devices. I have been an avid user since 03 and will always have my little blue box and thumb drive with the software at every lighting job.

    'Pro' suggestion: Bluelite x1 Mini... a bit higher than an Enttec, yes, but it's a total-package, and extremely bulletproof - I *highly* recommend...
