I hope to come up again from the Atlanta area.  Anyone looking at Vixen 3 or Vixen plus?  A demo of those would be good.  This seems to be the year for great software jumps.  Even xlights/nutcracker has made huge strides.  Will be good to see everyone again.

As a beginner I'd love to have someone go over configuration of various items in Vixen.  I figured if I brought my laptop someone could probably give me a quick run down of the more popular items.

Time is getting short.

We are keeping mostly an open format, but will setup a few classes to what the users need help with.

Would you have room for someone who has more to learn from others than has to offer? Not sure yet if I'll be able to free myself up to go to TN but the idea to meet you guys is exciting!

Bernard, you should plan to go.  If you are coming back you can ride with me, but if going to Birmingham on Sat nite you should drive yourself.

Look at my previous posts for all information on the Tennessee Mini.

In addition we will have a online class with ItsmeBobo on a new piece of software. It is called "SpEx", Spectrum Extract effect creator.

The class time will be set on Saturday.

Great mini yesterday!

Dennis, thanks for the hospitality and for teaching me so much about display elements as well as light animation concepts.  Met a few addicted folks full of knowledge willing to share it. I had a good time and it was worth the trip!

Glad you could make it and learned a lot.

This is what a mini is all about, getting other together and sharing information.
