each show: new Positions, the rest should stay the same

[dktechnik]

Hello,

I've not been working with Sunlite or any other DMX Software for a few years...
Here is what i do:
We have a small show touring accross Germany. In each Location I will be Using the same Moving Heads i bring along.
The Locations are pretty different to each other.

What I need:
It will be the exactly same show every time. Same Colours same Moves etc.
But the Position of the stage and of the MH's is always changing. So i want to Programm the show once and only want to change the Pan & Tilt for every location. But I use the same positions in several scenes, so i only wanna change it once and use it in lots of scenes...
Is it possible with the actual Sunlite Suite?

P.S. I also want to put this on a kind of timeline. Can Sunlite Play MP3's or wav files, so i can synchronize the Movements and Colour Changing exactly.

Guten Abend dktechnik,

and welcome to the Nicolaudie forum.

But the Position of the stage and of the MH's is always changing. So i want to Programm the show once and only want to change the Pan & Tilt for every location.

Yes, this is possible in Sunlite Suite 2 using "Palettes".
It´s important that you use "Palettes" when you start programming your show in the frist venue.
When you move on to the next venue, you can just update your "Palettes" and the changes will take effect in all scenes.
To get you going visit http://www.nicolaudie.com/nicolaudietv/ and watch the Suite 2 video tutorials "Palettes" and "Palettes types".
When you understand the idea behind "Palettes" it´s quite easy and very powerfull.
Also download the demo version of Suite 2 from the Nicolaudie Homepage and try the software and "Palettes" feature yourself.

P.S. I also want to put this on a kind of timeline. Can Sunlite Play MP3's or wav files, so i can synchronize the Movements and Colour Changing exactly.

This can be done with "Easy Show".
Same advice as above, watch "Easy Show" video and get demo version.
If you need more advice, just ask here on the forums.

Thank's for the quick answer. For these points I'm complettly satisfied.
But i've got 2 more questions:
- Easy Show can only be used with sunlite First class, right?
- Because it's a very Professional show we always have backups for everything... 2 Laptops, a few Heads more than needed etc.
Therefore i would also get 2 interfaces, one only for backup purposes...
Is it possible to get a second interface for a cheaper price in Germany?
