How to Use Midi and DMX in QuickShow

[@pixluxxbuiltthewave]

can I use regular dmx lights with this?

[@PangolinSystems]

Yes, but timline based. Its not a full DMX system as a console would offer.

How can i assign Cues to a knob?

[@ChristianUlufanua]

isnt possible unless u have the akai mpc modi cntrller , h may need to uograde to beyond

[@PangolinSystems]

QuickShow does not allow you to assign the cue grid. Only The APC Mini and APC mini MK2 are able to use the cue grid in QuickShow. Upgrading to BEYOND allows you full mappability.

Il me suffit dun enttec dmx pro usb et dun pc avec quickshow pour faire fonctionner mon laser en dmx ? Pas besoins de pangolin et cable idla dans ce cas la ?

[@PangolinSystems]

Vous avez besoin d'un laser Ilda avec FB3 ou FB4 pour réaliser cela.

[@cyrilvanhassel6752]

Dmx input only work with a Enttec DMX usb "Pro" / or the non Pro one work too ?

[@PangolinSystems]

It must be a Enttec Pro USB.

Also can i project multiple cues at the same time using midi?

[@PangolinSystems]

Yes you can. This all depends in how you configure QuickShow. In the menu bar, right click on "multi cue" and select the amount of concurrent cues you want to play. Note that you do put more load on the scanners so make sure you do not overload them.

[@ZubairAhmed-bu1oo]

so let's say that i setup up a knob to control the "Position X" , but i have a timeline with multiple cues at once, can i setup the knob to only control a single track of my timeline?

[@PangolinSystems]

Position X is something you can adjust when playing a live show. If you run something from the timeline, you will need to adjust the specific cue you want to modify. Live control does not modify the timeline.

can i with quickshow change te collers of the buttons on my Akai mini2 ?

[@PangolinSystems]

No, these are fixed inside the software

[@bendtvanhoey165]

does it work with artnet

[@PangolinSystems]

You need BEYOND for Art-net

[@nickloss2377]

why? have you purposefully omitted support for art-net & midi in QuickShow? Because Beyond is a piece of software which doesn't affect the capabilities of the hardware we have connected.

I'm curious about these DMX USB interfaces. The cheapest 1-port options I'm finding are all "output", with female 5-pin connectors. If I want to control my QS computer with a console, I need to "input" DMX to the computer, as confirmed by this tutorial selecting the DMX signal as an input in the settings. Does the hardware matter, though? Doesn't DMX signal go all directions? Can I set an ENTTEC DMX interface with only an "output" physical port as an "input" in the software, or does being a USB interface limit its directionality somehow? I imagine a turnaround wouldn't make much difference, but I'll go ahead and throw that variable in here just in case lol

[@PangolinSystems]

Yes, QuickShow only works with Enttec pro usb dmx.
