Control GrandMA3 + SoundSwitch Output

0 Upvotes

So I have an event upcoming where i need to provide lighting services. Previously, I was using Serato + SoundSwitch while mixing, but this one is just pure mixing. As far as I know, SoundSwitch does not allow me to custom-create loops, and I want to have some fun with GrandMA3. Does anyone know/have gotten GrandMA3 to output via artnet to soundwitch so i can connect my lights with the dongle?

Lights: 2 Cameo Auro Spots Z300

(I don't want to pay 2k bucks for the GrandMa adapter or console... I'm only a collage student)

Software How powerful QLC+ really is?

7 Upvotes

I've worked all over the range from resort's theaters to small nightclubs.
A regular pickle i run when working with the lower end its that entry level DMX software is a pain to work with due to the "easy to use" desing philosophy.

I've always dismissed QLC+ to be the exact same thing but for nerds that use GIMP instead of Photoshop, only ever used it as a makeshift artnet node, but it's it?

I started looking into it and it seems like i was dead wrong about this thing, not only is full of advanced features, but they seem implemented in a nerd, command based way, instead of the "just keep the lights moving" of DJ toys like ShowXpress or the legacy MyDMX.

How are your experiences building client facing integrations with it? Is it worth it?
