That is a nice looking DAC. Good luck!
Just a thought for a Wednesday morning (For me at least)
Do you think POE support could be a possibility in the future ? Running these off your on-stage switch (With redundant power supply) would be lovely!
Cheers,
Nige.
I considered it. The thing is, although PoE can supply plenty of power for the DAC itself, it really isn't enough to power a whole laser projector. (The lasers, possibly; the galvos, not so much.) So the projector would need its own power feed anyway, and PoE would be a significant amount of added cost and complexity. If there's a really compelling case for it, then maybe in a future revision, but probably not.Quote:

Yes, there's also a built-in abstract generator, though the user interface for it isn't exactly ready for prime time yet. "Coming soon..."Quote:

(the user could build frames and they would display in sync with a mic or line in input)
Will the abstract generator be able to sync to a audio input?
there will be LSX support for this dac and LSX has a number of sound related effects. i'm not sure that any of them work for external audio, but they do work if the computer is playing wave or mp3 files.

Can I suggest you take a look at the Microchip 2AA02E48 (or similar) EEPROM. These come shipped with a unique MAC address stored. It's a cheap and simple way to buy a unique MAC address, the 48 bit address is stored in the upper-most bytes. Simply read the address at boot, load and go.
