Smart String Dreaming

[Rainlover]

I really doubt that everyone would build the same size tree, but I am willing to bet that the people in this forum would share their sequences and help us learn how to sequence thousands of channels with whatever software is able.

I guess it would come down to how many channels and nodes per channel

Of course for the basic stuff. If your tree is smaller or larger than someone else. Just adding or subtracting as needed would work

Like copying a 8 channel arch for a 7 channel arch I just don't use channel 8
or 8 channel to 9 channel arch - copy the 8th channel and shift it right or left as needed

clear as mud??

No one would ever think that everyone would build the same size tree; my thought was that some would be willing to say how many channels and nodes per channel they were building and willing to share programming. I would think that could help some in the group with the project.

I think somebody should write a little program to create the sequences for a mega tree. It could ask for the height, diameter, no. of strings, nodes per string, and effect desired. (spiral, radar, etc)

I like what I saw, did a google on the software mentioned.

well
$300 for the cool software
$130 for more sequence software
$3000 for the 12 ribbons

$3430

I really hope the smart string becomes reality..

WOW I had better start sucking up to the wife for some smart strings LOL!!!

WOW!!!

Let's go software guru's!!!! YOU CAN DO THIS!

wow!!!  love that tree...especially the galaga show at the end.  very cool

Prancer (see here on DIYLA) is the closest thing yet to Object Oriented Sequencing (OOS)  

Prancer looks promising but unless I am misunderstanding it is not even out of alpha testing yet. Anyone....... please correct me if I am mistaken.

[Rainlover]

Prancer is being alpha tested. I am sure that Cas will start working on Prancer again when he is done with this years show stuff.

When making a mega tree....
To make sequencing easy, each line up the tree should be a separate controller...
BUT, it would be nice to be able to use once 128 unit string and go up and down and up and down so as to reduce the number of controllers...
But there in lies the problem with increased complexity in sequencing...
Unless some one knows a trick that would make this easier?  Maybe move the channels around or something?
I've done 1 Halloween and 1 Christmas, and use LSP.. So I am learning...
I would appreciate feedback and thoughts from the Seniors out that, (Not necessarily in age, but in experience).

When talking about mega trees and sequencing with nodes I have a fairly ignorant question. Using the traditional method of running strings vertically what is the average spacing of the strings at the base of the tree? About 3-6in?

Second question, although more difficult to set up initially, could the strings be wrapped in a circle?
