[QUOTE="Rob Gow, post: 74781, member: 206"] Re: Software DMX controller for Mac? Ok, I've had DMXIS for a couple months, so I've has some time to play with it, and I integrated a foot controller. (forgive me, but it's a Behringer FCB1010) I connect the foot controller with a midi cable to a Roland midi to USB interface. Then I've created a list of random scenes, about 45. After plugging in the foot controller, accessing the list is simple. The first 10 scenes in the list correspond with the 10 buttons on the controller, Bank 00. Move to Bank 01 and there's the next 10 scenes. I have the first volume pedal to adjust the intensity of the front lights shining on the band. The second pedal controls my smoke machine via DMX. I'm no lampie by any stretch of the imagination but it works great for me. Here's a quick video and a couple pics of my rig. In this video I have the rig move to a static scene, then the same one with some movement. Then to another static scene, then the same scene with movement. It's automatically moving down the list via a measure count, and a BPM setting. (say, 2 measures at 120bpm) Again, manual control is available via foot switch.
