A lot of what I want to do hinges on being able to get my hands on an Ether dongle. Off of my first Hub I have 14 SSC's set up to run 14 90 node flexible strips for a matrix.
Some simple math: 90x3=270 channels a strip x 14 strips = 3780 channels Pixel nets dongle gives you 4096 channels -3780 leaves you with 316 Pixelnet or DMX channels left on dongle 1.
From there I will hook a second Hub to run 8 120 node Flexible strips and one universe of DMX for 10 of Computerized Lightings programmable Snow tubes.
Dongle 2 to Pixelnet Hub 2 120 nodes x 3 = 360 channels x 8 strips = 2880 Leaving your with 1216 channles left.
From there I will run a third Hub for 2 120 node arches and another universe of DMX for 10 more of Computerized Lightings programmable Snow tubes and finally one more Hub for a third set of 10 of Computerized Lightings programmable Snow tubes that run on DMX.
You can use a regular DMX dongle for 512 channels of DMX for the third dongle.
*Or if were really good and keep our rooms clean and eat all our vegetables Santa RJ might have the Ether Dongle out before the end of October and you can do everything of 1 ether dongle. (*the ether dongle will be out when all the beta testing is finished and not a moment sooner! Clean rooms and vegetable eating will have no effect on this process.)
