Hello Everyone. My name is Brett and I’ve been shooting back yard shows for the last 14 years. Just got into Pyro Musicals last year–don’t know why I didn’t embrace them sooner, it’s incredibly addicting. Looking forward to learning more about Finale3D.

yes. my apologies.

I have thoroughly reviewed the available column in the Finale 3D Pro software, but I am still unsure if my current setup exceeds this limit or if it is correctly adding up the quantities. Could you please confirm whether my current design stays within the 200-device limit for the 360° Wheel? Any guidance or additional information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. best regards Alex   Hi Alex, I think your question is related to the PyroJam design competition. If that’s right, would you mind posting your question as a reply to the Official PyroJam 2025 Discussion Topic?

JY6-0373 seems to be missing the strobing pistil in the simulation. NO-SS-25-15: No red visible in the simulation. NO-SS-25-17: No green visible in the simulation. NO-SS-30-38: No red visible in the simulation. Thank You Thanks for pointing these out.  The RSW shells have been fixed to match the NO-5-RSW effect which was the correct sim. The comets you mentioned have been fixed as well. JY6-0373 doesn’t have a strobing pistil despite what China was supposed to build haha.  I have corrected the description.

Hi Tim, Thanks for the fix and update, changes are now reflected.

Is PSS93 (Blue Tiger Tail w/ Red Strobe Mine) sub type correct? it looks like a comet w/ mine to me, currently it is listed on the ss mine subtype. 2. Seems like JY4-0123 (Brocade Crown to Lemon) simulation is incorrect? current simulation looks like a brocade crown to multicolor. Thanks   Hi Jake, sorry for the delay, but I looked into these and you are correct.  These have been updated (subtype for the PSS93 and simulation for JY4-0123) and should show correctly once you sync with the network.

Thanks Hi Jake, I’ll check these when I get back to the office today.  On the road at the moment.  Thanks for your patience.

Perfect, Thanks Drew! Now I understand what “chain” means in application…that was a very helpful couple of paragraphs.   Also…for future readers…Script>Sequence, Script>Duplicate, Script>Align, (etc…lots of functions in the “Script” header) contain powerful “copy/paste” and “array” type tools that are WAAAAY faster than MANUALLY editing individual effects and CTRL-C/CTRL-V 50 or 60 times.   Cheers, -Russ
