Story Time:
Doing a gig last night, 1 sound tech and 1 general tech. There is some lighting for approx 30mins when the sun sets. Then basically just got the general tech to hit light colour changes on beat (desk couldn't do any better than this).
Was then driving home and thinking what if we could use the Kick, Snare, Gates as triggers for a Lighting Cue for DMX-512/ArtNet output.
No Lighting Op:
Say Kick Changes to Red, Snare to Blue, Crash Yellow, or pulses on a chase between 3 colours based on snare hits etc. Something really basic, but an awesome result for the crowd with little effort.
On, No gate hit for X time fade to White.
With Lighting Op:
A way to expose this "event" via OSC / Companion, Variable-like setting for BPM from Kick hits, then being able to access a live view with Companion Variables for the Lighting Guy to pull in.
Other:
Output Gate Open as an Event:
100+ times per min might be too many.
