I have heard Motu have stopped making the Midi Express. Does any one have any recommendations for LTC to MTC converters & midi patch. Thanks Matt Matthew...
... Not sure what you mean by MIDI patch but the converters we recommend are the JLCooper PPS-2 and if you need comprehensive control the MOTU MIDI TimepieceAV...
Another problem we are finding is the Time Piece is on a large back order, we also hear of possible chip shortages. Hence we are looking for another option. ...
... I have never been a big fan of the MTP so encourage you to use something else - possibly the PPS-2 in combination with a Roland or virtually any other ...
Not too off topic I hope... Just an invitation for any members of this group with some direct experience here to share their knowledge of the techniques CNN...
... Same here. I did hear mention of "32 HD cameras surrounding her" which in that case says they've got some pretty crappy cameras or software. I'm guessing...
On CNN they interviewed the CNN VP responsible who called himself "a mad scientist" (NOT!). It's just a compositing technique, and they have motion tracking...
Well, the keying was pretty shit admittedly, but there is some clever stuff going on. I'd guess they have 32 cameras feeding into a computer directly, so you...
I think the tech trick that sold the effect was the synchronized moving cameras on the opening shot. The gratuitous blue crappy lo-res wobbly halo video...

We experimented with a similar system at QVC. In our case we outfitted our studio cameras (including robotics, handheld and jib cameras)with infrared ...
Sounds similar, except they keyed in live content not 3d content generated to match the cameras. I think they must recreate her in 3d, based on a 'bullet-time'...
Just getting the keying to work was a challenge: red sweaters followed by emerald earrings, opal rings and blue toy cars! Hours and hours of bright, shiny...
Really it's just another version of the thing CNN's been doing all year -- the moving real camera on a person in a greenscreen room, and compositing the person...

Maybe a bit of break-up and stuttering every now and again, get the real Princess Leia effect. By the way, if anyone hasn't seen it, check out Family Guy's...
I'm working on a museum project here in NYC where the designer has spec'd QLab. I did some test firing of QLab via MIDI Show Control from Medialon Manager,...
Hi all. I just subscribed to this list on the recommendation of Charlie. Currently I am a rigging specialist on a really big boat, and whilst I understand the...

... John, This issue has been talked about several times on the QLab email list. You are correct QLab currently ignores Cue Numbers in MSC commands. It will ...
... Just to clarify here - if the designer wants to program the show using QLab, they can do so using the SoundMan-Server QLab plugin to control the selections...
On Sat, Nov 8, 2008 at 3:40 AM, Charlie Richmond ... Somehow, I knew you would say that :-) I'm just doing show control on this one, you'd have to convince...
... And I expected you to say that.... so that's why I explained how QLab could still be used to design the show ;-) Once the designer has finished designing...
Not that it's the most elegant or standard way of doing things, but Q- lab reacts very well to hotkey presses as absolute cue 'GO's. Perhaps rather than...
... FYI, that worked... I really really hate having to assign a note number to each cue, but it will at least get us through this project, thanks! John...
... [...] ... I'm glad you got a workaround going, even if it's an annoying one. You're absolutely right, of course, that lack of full MSC support is a big...
Thanks for the response! As I mentioned, I hope you will (in addition to flushing out the MSC implementation) accept commands over some IP-based connection......
Hello Everyone, I am working on a Christmas display that will have 4,000 to 6,000 lighting cues synced to music. I am using E:Cue for the lighting. As I see...
