I got back 2 days ago from the Southport Weekender last weekend, was there for a week!

most amazing visuals shit, hooo my, talk about upgrade rush :O Hog3s, like 30 int. beamers, 3 5' plasmas + 9 8-10' rear projected screens, 3 MX30s(?) like 17 15-19' LCD flatscreens counted total. Pyrotechnics, rockets & shit I kid you not (on sat :D)

Looks like a good time, hope you got paid for your efforts. Where you at with xynth? Does xynth have a user interface yet? What is a Hog?

XYNth has always had a UI, it's just that it's a temp/debug version with limited functions. I don't reveal any of it on the public test though - Only the XYNth BetaLoop members get the full UI version.

Hogs are made by www.flyingpig.com. They are these crazy $20K lighting controllers. 2048 channels of DMX (like MIDI for lighting) + midi as well. (the hog2 &hog3 are the 2 lighting controllers with the 2 built-in LCD panels)

My XYNth dev is gearing towards a platform for an intelligent lighting system compatible with DMX and MIDI.

Of course, I am also maintaining a 'standalone' edition for all us VJ types, an edition that can interface with 'pro' systems as well


Lotsa stuff in the works right now, I hope to make some announcements soon :o
