jackstone Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I've tried many Sound-to-Light settings and what work best is: - C4 Audio Matrix v3 (not the older) - Dedicate a matrix output for the Sound-to-Light, use stripped RCA cable to connect the a Controller contact input (not a Card Access). - Bind the STL zone to a virtual room in the project - Play music in a room, add this virtual room to the music - Adjust the volume of the STL zone, crank the Bass to the max and Treble to the min - Do some programming to have the virtual room to be joined automatically to your main room whenever you activate STL. We are trying to simplify this a bit with the upcoming DMX driver, we will also offer a new way to do effects from music beat, this will allow the use of multiple effects, not just a single one.

cybuch Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 @jackstone have you developed an E1.31 lighting driver or plan to, since you did one for LOR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not know about this one, but it seems somehow pretty similar to LOR, and not so hard to integrate... Yes, writing a driver for this is something feasible. I don't know how it perform though but LOR is a rock solid performer even when used through Control4, impressive system for the price. If someone is interested to have a driver for E1.31 please let us know, I may work on that next year if there is some interest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does your company/supplier have any product similar to this? https://www.clarolux.com/uploads/1428859361GM100-TB(800x800).jpg I'm looking for spots pointed at the top half of my house from a small roof overhang halfway up.

jackstone Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Needed to copy/paste the URL and not it worked. Nice spot... I never seen something like this until now. Unfortunately we don't provide that kind of product, but the company of the website where the photo come from (Clarolux) is not able to sell the product?

lippavisual Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 What type of light output are you looking for? RGB, White? I haven't seen anything like those in RGB, in case you are wondering. That spot looks like a standard landscape or path lighting fixture with a moveable hood for, my guess is, beam control on the spot. I've been using these guys for my outdoor spots with a little custom work. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I3UHFMK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The light you linked looks like it could work. Not sure if it's bright enough though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lippavisual Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 They've been plenty bright enough for me and my applications. Basically using them as pathway lights all around and wall washers in the backyard. For as cheap as they are, buy and try. That's what I did. If you don't like it, Amazon takes returns pretty easily.

This project was supposed to be just a quick update over the original code to add some features and optimize the algorithm, but it became a monster with a complete redo of the code and lot of added features.

bk Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Hi jackstone, I have now setup and using the effect switch function. What i am finding is that some colours (shades) flick quickly to the next. Red, Orange, Yellow are some, then others Blue stay for an extended time. Settings are fade over 5 seconds, hold for 1000ms, Rainbow, ranged colour loop. Is this perhaps a decoder related situation? My goal would be for each shade to stay for a few seconds, or would i best acheive this in programming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybuch Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 My run fine with those settings. I am running the PX24500 decoders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bk Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 See attached properties page. Controlling 3 leds in a water feature, 24v using wifi sender and receiver to a outdoor bollard. What further info would you like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackstone Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 The "Wi-Fi" part does not inspire me a lot... Can you try by connecting the LED to a wired decoder without any "Wi-Fi" extender? By "3 LEDs" you mean a single RGB LED? Can you try controlling those LED using a single RGB dimmer, just to make sure they react correctly.
