Hello all my dmx users. here is a video i put together on youtube for you all. it is so you can learn how to create your own fixture profiles and use them with either MY DMX or Compu Live! enjoy! any questions......let me know. http://youtube.com/watch?v=UO1Swkfll9I
sincerely,

Can you post a link to step by step instructions. The video isn't that great.

I watched your video and thought is was spot on...it answered a couple things I didn't know as well. Thanks

Glad someone likes it. Thanks.
Welcome to the forums,

i looked on my software but i did not found the profile creator. where do i get it?

Scan your hard drive for Scanlibrary editor. SHOULD come bundled with the software. Let me know.
Sincerely,

where can i find the preset values for my lights? is there a part of the software that i'm missing?

Normally in the manual. Book or online. If not, attach the fixture and go through it bit by bit. I hear Jingles will create a fixture if you ask nicely.

Some people don't always ask nicely though. but i still do it anyways.
Sincerely,

The manual isn't too hot on explaining about the library editor works. Also, the library editor is not very intuitive for new user. I don't feel this is a weak point though. Once someone has gone through the effort of making their own profile and having it double checked, afterwards, the profile editor becomes much more logicial.

It would be nice if more users would TRY to make their own profiles instead of immediately asking for help. Me, I make my own profiles these days. Sorry, the old school in me. Jingles is fast about making profiles, but I'm usually in need of faster!

you calling me slow? haha. just kidding.

Also to anybody who wants to learn how to make their own profiles, CALL me and i will train you myself over the phone.
Sincerely,

Slow? No, you're way faster than I am. But you're busy making profiles for everyone else. So far I've been lucky, seriously lucky. Most of my profiles already exist in the various libraries. Having the Mega Panel and 64 LED UV already in the library saved my VALUABLE time on my previous show.

I'll make my own then share with anyone who wants them. Share and share alike. Speaking of which, I'm tweaking the Mega Panel profile, it's not accurate as far as what the manual says.

Then again, I'm just a sound guy. What do I know about lights?

That reminds me, I've redone my laptop and MyDMX tested and passed with flying colors. I need to re-import my show files and start working again. I got my main machine chewing on HD video renders, and another machine doing video captures. 2 other machines are busy burping out DVD's. There there are my 2 file and print servers, web server, mail server, main mail client.... We keep the data moving around here!

Manual refures to the fixture manual. I thought that with a little exploration, Fixture creater/editer was quite easy to use, once i'd found you could click on the pictures.
