I know what you’re talking about, I’ve used them a few times. But don’t have any in my inventory

@dappergaffer loved your content for awhile, I'm on board. Keep up the good work. I'm certain you'll help me in my forays into video. Rented my Nanlites out today on set. Continuing to build

@@NJRIII Keep at it bro!

Thank you sir! That means a lot coming from a man of your caliber

Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions about CRMX

Great video! Are gaffers and theatres not using CRMX with a PC program for a preprogrammed show? I can see this as being useful for pixel mapping, sequences, fades...everything tablet and phone apps lack.

@@SpirosAbatis yes, Lumenair and Blackout are the primary I’ve seen. Although usually on an iPad. Grand MA probably more in live environments or episodic stage shows? As an owner op gaffer - a PC system would be pretty clunky for the type of work a lot of us do

I’ve found them to be about average. But I think where some of the confusion comes from is how you think about it and how the manufacturer sets up the controls for it. For instance, Titan tubes allow you to select how long you want them to run and they simply throttle the brightness to accommodate that runtime. If you set them at maximum brightness (which requires the minimum runtime) they don’t last all that long. With the Pavos, you set the brightness and it tells you how long they will run at that power draw. They will run a very long time for instance if you run them at 1%.

@dappergaffer Astera Tubes last 20 hours and have been around for years now. Let's be honest Nanlite just cut corners on the costs.

@@djLovelyTime did you read my comment above? They last 20hrs if you significantly throttle the output. At full intensity Titans do not last very long.

Thanks broski

Thanks Joel, and glad to hear we are brothers of a native tongue ;-)

Gracias a usted, señor

If you have a roll of seamless, you can use a pair of C-stands for this - simply place an arm in each end of the roll. Still, be sure the long leg is in the direction of the load and knuckles are on the right

Thank you sir! Oh to be a DP sitting on a cushioned dolly seat sipping tea 😉

I would be intimidated 😂

😆 excellent reference

Thanks for the encouragement bro 😎

Thanks!

😆 thanks bro

Thanks!

Thanks for listening!

For me, now that the Pavos have Lumenradio - they do everything I need them to do. I can't see myself needing to use Titan's anymore unless production specifically asks for them

Thanks Shirly! It was lovely to meet you at the show. And thank you for the tea! I've been enjoying it drive.google.com/file/d/1C7Gfl-5K6Z7DMTDgMbxrUmNs8GBgCPLZ/view?usp=share_link

Thanks man

😆

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for hoping on!

Now the question is whether to trust the manufacturer’s numbers or do our own testing 😉

@@dappergafferI find respectable brands are often accurate and sometimes even conservative

😆

Pretty sure I got it from B&H: www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1039676-REG/elation_professional_sdc12_12_channel_basic_dmx.html

Coincidental, it happens to be my G&E house color Funny thing is, I didn’t notice it was effectively the same color till we started editing the video 😆
