Announcement: New laser show software available: Procedural dynamic frames, Much More

[Galvonaut]

Having been hanging around the forum and chatroom for a month I quickly realised that LSX is the tool for me. The ability this software has to create outstanding, individual and creative abstracts makes it an easy choice, so I've just ordered myself a copy of LSX Pro!

Above all, this software has a community behind it that supports others who are learning and customer service which matches the flexibility of the software itself, with customer ideas being implemented on an ongoing basis.

Thanks Andrew for creating such a tool and such a following and thanks also to all of the forum members who have helped make my mind up with their advice and support. I can't wait to get started!

LSX is overkill for what you need. lasercam plus will do the trick.

I didn't have the time to read the 400+ posts in this thread, so sorry if this has been asked before.

I'm making all my animations in Blender. the problem is the frames get saved as bitmaps (BMP, PNG, etc). All I need is a tool to convert my black and white "outline" images to ILDA vectors.

There appear to be some programs which use math algorithms to generate vectors from such images. LSX says it can convert bitmap to ILDA also, but from the image from the site all it seems to do is to lower pixel amount to few thousands and convert each pixel to a laser point. That's a different approach and looks like using a very low resolution ordinary video projector.


Is that the case?

(Not trying to give a bad name to LSX, it does some very cool advanced stuff for procedural and realtime abstract animation creation, but I just don't need that).

EDIT: BTW, where is there a shipping cost in the purchase page? Are you shipping a DVD with the software? Can you just send a digital copy and license key to my email? It usually takes 30-40 days for packages to reach my side of the world and I'm in a bit of hurry.

I'd like to purchase a RIYA basic. Andrew is unavailable.

Which riya dacs are on your webpage, the multibus ones?
Thanks

Desperately need to purchase a license of LSX basic.I am unable to reach Andrew (for almost a month), and his website is currently down. While ive read that its moving, ive already put the project on hold for a month due to the unavailability of the EtherDream DAC, and im anxious to get started.

Now that the ED is back on sale, id love to buy LSX.

I understand there are a few other pieces of software that will work with the ED, but i really was looking forward to the generative capabilities of the software.

can anyone send a carrier pidgeon Andrew's way - id really like to give him my money. (and hopefully get some software, at some point).


If he is really AWOL for good this time, does anyone have a suggestion of where (software wise) i should go next?

[polishedball]

He is getting ready to ship the drivers, sure he will be around soon. But I believe for basic he allows a third party to sell and generate the keys. Trying to remember where I read it but it was recent.

LSX is available on ebay I think. Not sure who is selling it though.
I believe Andrew is migrating his website at the moment too.

[colouredmirrorball]

I believe the Ebay auction is Andrew's as well.
I didn't know j4cbo/the Etherdream manufacturer could generate license keys for LSX. That might currently be your best option.

I ping'd Jacob about it today, Havent heard back. Yes i do know he can generate a key for the basic and then has to send it away to Andrew for the real USB key. Or something. Andrew explained it to me. Hes also not been returning his emails that ive been sending him earlier at the beginning of september trying to get an ED before he updated his site (on 10/2) to say they were out of stock.

FWIW Illumination Supply (who sells the ED and the PixelPusher) also sells some of Lava's drivers. thinking (hoping) they may start selling LSX too.

Also - FWIW - yes, the ebay auction is Andrew's as well. I contacted him about mid september to see if i could get an etherdream/LSX from him, cause i was leary about buying LSX and an ED from someone on the net who isnt an 'authorized' vendor. turns out it IS actually him. But he didnt have any etherdreams in stock at the time either (despite having them listed).

Andrew has also been unresponsive for the past month via my ebay thread.

also... Andrew i see that you've been active on the site today... If you PM me, ill buy a copy of every piece software you sell - and a pro license of LSX.


What type of carrot do i have to dangle to get ahold of you, man!

[drlight]

its kinda back up... but cant actually process a payment.

i pulled the link out of his sig, didnt think to look there before. or maybe it wasn't there moments ago. its got the same directory structure as the old one...


edit: not all the fields were populated, thats a PEBCAC on my end.
