Thanks Stuka. Unfortunately my lasers are a bit underspeced for these shows, however I did have a play with Jem's laser at UKLEM - although I failed to realise that I could have scanned at way more PPS. This is projected on a white wall, so detail is a bit blown out.
I designed the shows blind as it were, so I was more than pleased that so many abstracts scanned.

If I could make it work with in a 2U panel, it would end up being a replacement of the Z-5 enclosure. Currently, it's an 8U top 2U bottom and available on the market is a 10U top 2U bottom enclosure. So the original panel wouldn't change.

Not a bad idea! I'm actually building this for the Jatravartids so I think they will be ok with it!

I have a theory that by creating abstract shows I will be better able to control my beam shapes and effects when I create beam shows. Some abstracts work really nicely as beams, but not many.

Merely a thought - one of the things about the Gatorbox I don't care for is the lack of a hard lid to protect the knobs and switches. I know in the end it would both cost and weigh more but, if you're exploring ways to add the color mod panel to the existing Z-5 builds, I'd be up for a case with a hard lid, should it have the necessary 10U and 2U configuration.

So guys, it's been fun and it's been unreal. I'm finding this - whatever it was - almost as disappointing as the last ASTC conference. So I'm going to throw in the towel. Feel free to parse the following any way you like: (Yes I know - you don't need my permission.) I wish each of you the greatest success you can imagine.

As it turns out, the enclosure I looked at does have a hard top: https://www.skbcases.com/music/produ...et=&c=142&s=80
