KISS principle personified!

I have a small show I run with QLab 3. I run a software lighting control in the background, which QLab triggers when the light cues are suppose to fire. I’ve not been very happy with my options for lighting control on the Mac. I just discovered this yesterday and it is perfect for my needs. Sure, I could spend an extra $750 and upgrade to QLab4, letting it handle everything, but that’s not the best solution for me. I love the simplicity of this and, so far in my testing, it does everything I need it to. Keep up the great work!

Perfect for my needs

I have run this program for years to control lights for puppet and live performances. It's dead simple to use. I've programmed RGB led strips with it, in addition to other fixtures. Haven't wanted anything it can't do. It's been fantastic.

Nice free program

Thanks to the author of this program. It is convenient for writing simple cues and testing lighting looks. It has its flaws - I have noticed a slight delay after hitting the go button as the next cue loads, and the “loop” feature is hard to figure out for programming a chase - but hey, it’s free and allows you to use a cheap USB-DMX box to control hundreds of lights, so I am not complaining.
