preshow: OK test sliders on plus OK copy past PHS lighting config to dance2008 OK make up/bow/down curves for all songs OK make music curves test camera on plus for taking stage pics; do a program to turn on each channel and sub and get a picture. mix the order and do it fast, so the camera doesn't get to readjust between them? OK setup patched mpd on plus and score OK test mouse on plus ext monitor on plus. score too? buy LCDs test lightsim running at the same time as curvecalc test dmx output on 64-bit plus OK fix showcofnig.py to search .mpdconf then /etc/mpd OK normalize levels apparently in 2007 we played music on the laptop 'score', and it was a little bit messed up. Preloading into memory may have helped. port togl to pyglet, perhaps? map some buttons to the worklights, etc. Maybe midi board buttons? keypad? wii? ramdisk for the preload OK test local net curvecalc slider instructions please thurs: OK patches OK subs for each song OK fade curves per song OK worklight switch - use sliders and KC packing list: power strips computers, bcf, dmx net hub and cables dmx cables external mouses, keyboards wrench, tape blank CDs label tape phone charger audio adapters gels and swatches music on score: ~/dl/mpd% src/mpd --no-daemon --verbose issues to note during the show: what ran dmx: what ran music: what ran curvecalc: music stutters? light flickers? better sound cables next time: does avahi make the host-finding stuff easy? probably not worth much, but at least the host settings should be in config.n3 rename :showPath to something about mpd right amount of connection logging on asco. it doesn't error clearly when it's looking for mpd on the wrong host how to make initial subterms: light9% for x ({2..17}) { perl -lpe 's/song1/song'$x'/g' show/dance2008/subterms/song1.n3 > show/dance2008/subterms/song$x.n3 } how to normalize audio: plus(pts/0):~/projects/light9/show/dance2008/music/norm% normalize-audio -v --mix *.wav keys on curvecalc that jump to the "create new X" boxes share all data from all tools, no more refreshes or restarts bug where empty sub doesn't save from SC in KC, exclude house lights from being saved in any subs bring 500W bulbs, wire strippers record-everything mode that makes curves out of whatever happens on stage asco makes lots of errors after you play through the last song five second post KC should have a separate window that repeats the names of the subs in the current row, numbered as hardware sliders. This would be put on the screen where it's always visible, when KC is hidden subterms on nonexistent subs are getting lost, but i need those for chase and effects
