Sky Fire Forge, Neil is spot on. The October 2023 full release had a bug that was fixed in the immediate next beta release. I previously thought the bug only affected the intensity curves of very specific strobing effects, but it’s now apparent that can impact a wider range of effects. Thankfully, it’s already fixed. All you have to is update to…Read More

Thanks for confirming. I look forward to seeing the VDL’s. It’s a bit disappointing if those videos are the most accurate to the original video, for example the first row of taste the rainbow isn’t even in the right order.Nice catch on Taste The Rainbow, I’ll get that fixed up right away. Anything else?

Drew, thanks for getting back to me. You are right, I don’t see it on your video. I added them to a new show and I get the same results. As long as I know that it is just a “me” problem, I’ll keep it in my show. Could it be a GPU setting issue? BTW, I am running build 2023.10.02-5d6e6ec44. TimAlthough not impossi…

Seems like I found a solution for my question about amplitudes. I bought the songs from Amazon and it seems to work better. Maybe they decrease the quality if you use a converter to download them. When you buy them all is good.Hi Sven, amplitude primarily affects perceived loudness, it doesn’t directly correlate to audio quality.…

Hi Tim and Drew, I’m using the PFX50MN-B and the randomness of the height on it seems excessive. Is the sim correct? The first pic is a screen shot of the sim with randomness turned off. The second is with randomness turned on at the same exact time code. The red mine is WPL30SS-01 for comparison. I’m using build 202… -

Hi, not sure this is the right place to put this but here goes….. Is there a keyboard short cut that allows you to quickly add a second effect over top the first? This would keep the positions, timing, and angles of the original effect and just add the second effect. Similar to pressing “Y” but instead, it would keep the o… -

Hi,Thanks for this cool event and the FAQ thread 🙂
If I may ask a few questions.
1) Would it be OK to cut and trim a few songs with a tool like Audacity to create a soundtrack? Or is it better to have complete unedited songs?
Yes, you can absolutely cut, trim, and mix songs. Use your creativity and all the tools at your…Read More
