  • Tomcatter Other People Doing This by Tomcatter, 1167247661 Report sent Spam Reply [+6] Thumbs Up Thumbs Down

    Another musican guy in California is doing this for charity purposes. We went by the house to see it in person. The effect is far better in person. He had about 7 songs lasting about 30 minutes

      Okay, you guys need to get out more!!!! This CD is awsome and the person who created this display is pure genius(the sequencing is amazing)! I live by this house, and I am proud to say that too!!! No he did not create the music.
      ~(Trans-Siberian Orchestra)~ Anyways, great job, and to anyone that hasn't bought a TSO Cd, or have not seen one of their concerts, you HAVE to...you will get the full blown TSO experience.(This is just a introduction to the wonderful world of TSO!!!!) ^_^

                                      this is actually a very simple light show just a unique idea of where to put it, I do FX light and sound for raves. if you want to do it yourself theres a bunch of companies that make the equipment, lightronics, Strand, Martin, AMDJ to name a few, all you need to get is the controller board or software (preferably dmx512 compatable), 5 to 10 4ch dimmer packs, and the cables, a martin light jocky system makes it very easy since it has a show creator simulator.

                                      highly recommend the CD's. Incidently, I saw this house on a LITE commercial. Hope they were properly reimbursed, or at least enough to pay their electric bill.

                                                    We went there after Christmas dinner in Cincy. Very disappointed we did not get to see this awesome display in person. He could not play it because of all the scrooges with unlit houses in the neighborhood. He's a genius! Hope he comes up with a grander one next year. Bah humbug to the neighbors!

                                                              This can be accomplished with a SLC 503 and 4, 16 point AC output cards utilizing a sequencer file timed to the music. The code is easy and would take about 15 minutes to write then trying to enter the sequencer data is going to take a few hours. The timer should be set for one-tenth second time base.

                                                              You have to either use a fast switching relay card or high current AC output relays down stream. Watch the load calcs for total current draw.

                                                              This can be accomplished with an Allen Bradley SLC 503, 4 sixteen point output cards and fast acting relays. Watch the current loads however. The code will take about 15 minutes to write but then you will need a few hours and a lot of alcohol to create the sequencer binary file. The time base for the timer should be set to one-tenth of a second.

"Wizards in Winter" is their opening song. You can buy the CD just about anywhere. I'm surprised that the news magazine channels have not done a feature story about TSO. These guys rule. I'm very impressed with the light display. I myself put up between 15,000 and 30,000 every year.

He always said that he would cooperate with the Warren County sheriff if things got problematic. Since it was broadcast over a low power FM channel. noise from the display's music really wasn't a problem unless someone in their car really cranked it up. I'm trying to catch the display on the new Miller Lite commercial on ESPN this morning. Funny, I do the same thing during the Super Bowl, ignore the show and only watch for the advertising!

It'll tell you what's going on "behind the curtain".

Over 25 years I've lit operas, plays, musicals, concerts, fashion shows, memorial services, music videos. Spectacle is spectacle, whether it's Tosca or the Rolling Stones 2005 tour.
