I think my direct quote was "...like smashing you in the face with a brick for an hour", and I saw many laser shows by other companies (who shall remain nameless) where I left exhausted with my ears ringing. Laserium was all about PACING. Yes, you should have those high energy numbers - they're...

I think it would be a mistake to try to define Ivan space as devoid of the music that it interprets. And not just any music. There may be a real connection between Laserium's early success and the best of the progressive rock experiments that were happening at the same time. I see clips today and...

Here's photos of a color mapping experiment in which an HSV grid is mapped to cycloids. The desert scene is a scrolling background that resembles a blocky old VIC-20 game. The code that generates the color map has access to the same live and recorded input as the rest of the system so one can set...

Looks wikid, ive loved developing software around your standard Helios controller. Take care

Likewise. Seem to be by far the easiest option. ___________ Marius NDR Lighting

That's the Kickstarter one, right? Nope, you can't get a variance for them. If you could, they'd scream it. While it's true that it's completely legal to possess and use in a private setting at home, the moment you do something that you want to show in public, it becomes illegal in the USA....

My youtube channel is The Golden Age of Laser Shows. Everything posted there was output from a system I developed using four bela "starter kit" devices and a lot of support from the elders and rock stars of live laser concert history. The open part of the platform shown in the videos is a c++...

Great information! Thank you. I am looking into it.

No worries. Maybe you'll do better next christmas .....

i'm having also phoenix controllers and a mamba 2 dac wich one i use with lsx pro:-) because i'm having a huge collection of shows for it :-) and with the fb3 i'm using beyond offcourse :-)

The Bela low latency audio platform can simultaneously record stereo audio at 44.1kHz and eight ADC channels at 22050Hz, and also simultaneously output stereo audio and eight DAC channels at the same rates.

Nice! Thanks for sharing. Roj

Most commercial laser software is ILDA frame based for animated line graphics 🤮 and kazillion beam stage productions, with little focus on projected abstracts (the heart of the original art, IMO). I'm a retired Laserium laserist, only interested in creating, playing, and recording videos of...

Ivan space has a bit of nonlinear chaos/ noise if any oscillator is on, and by definition the way an oscillator works, some thermal noise and shot noise. Its quantization is a defined at one end by the roughly the charge of an electron. Its limit at the other end is the response curve of the...

what software do you use?

Cool! You're very welcome. Glad to see it working. Enjoy 😎

After moving the cables back and forth a bit I get the following result: :) https://photos.app.goo.gl/WLJoKMMgqqWnd4mQ7 thanks in advance for the help and tips

Best to not mess with the driver's trim pots. They are fine tuned from the factory and wouldn't detune on their own. Only experienced techs should attempt adjusting them. It's good that the galvos haven't been driven too hard which makes a blown driver less likely, but not impossible. Prolonged...

No, the trim pots haven't been adjusted yet. The laser has had this problem for a while, but I thought it was the ILDA cable... Now I've connected the FB3 DAC without the cable, and the problem persists. And the laser never actually runs at 100% XY, always smaller. Below is another photo....
