Re: Good Effects and Layer Combinations

Cheers Guertler!

I was just wondering if anyone had any personal favourites, one of mine is using plasma and noise to create a wind/snowstorm effect on flat panels. It looks really effective, i may do a youtube video!

Re: GS8208 is controlled by Madrix

Out of curiosity what has made you go with GS? It has an awful default feature where if your data drops out it goes into a rainbow chase effect which essentially totally ruled it out of ANY install work for me. Have you already purchased the tape? If not could i recommend WS2815 as i assume you have...

Good Effects and Layer Combinations

Hallo Madrixers! I've been scouring the web to find what layer combinations people use for great effects in Madrix and haven't come up with much luck! Just wondering if any of you guys knew of any good forum posts anywhere? If not, we could make this a sticky and everyone post their favourite effects?

Re: MADRIX 5 to artnet

Hey Fritzsch! This would explain why i have had a couple of calls off customers struggling with the Madrix 5 demo! So just to clarify, you must have 3.6 installed and you must set up your artnet devices in there first? Then you should open Madrix 5, add them in there then away you go? (Only for demo...

Re: Creating a pixel map

Hey DK!

Yes Thilo replied to my email and said the same thing, he also modified my existing patch so i could see it.

I have patched all the strips already so i have a total pixel count etc i had never thought of using the Z axis like that but it makes perfect sense now!

Thanks for the reply!

I turned the ceiling into an EQ then want...

Running Madrix on a NUC

Hi guys! Buying another Madrix pro key for one of my jobs next week and the customer isnt happy with paying for one of my i7 desktops. They have said they want as cheap and as small a form factor as possible. Have you had any luck running Madrix on a NUC before? The install is all 2d but is around 1...
