This tutorial is more a playground with a stage made in “3D Easy View” and FreeStyler to control it.
The buildup of this setup is made so it can be used as a simple setup where more and more functions can be added and testes.
It will be possible to work with the fixture control without having any hardware involved.
The files for the tutorial are made as single files with a guide of what to do with them. And the description of the single sub tutorial will be in a way so the files can be created just following the tutorial.

The stage consists of 4xLed bars, 6xLed strips, 1 Strobe and 4x moving heads and look like this.

The stage is set by following the sub tutorial here. Setup 3D Easy View
When the stage is set then FreeStyler has to be setup with the same fixtures.
This is done by setting the location with adding the fixtures on the right addresses.
This is done by following the link to this sub tutorial. Setup the location.

Now the stage is set and FreeStyler is setup to control it.
It is time to turn on light and see that it works.
Select some fixtures open the lamp panel and press “open” to open the shutter. For the led bar and strips it is necessary to increase the color faders because they don’t have a dimmer control function.

The matrix is intended to be used with LedTrix but also with some manual made sequences.
Using both Ledtrix and a sequence demonstrate that these two controls works in parallel.

Here is a small LedTrix tutorial. Matrix LedTrix Tutorial
