DMX Can't Post

dear forum
I'm looking for a way of controlling Isadora from a DMX lighting board.
I think some of the Lanbox products translate DMX to Midi, but I'm not sure witch one and how.
any clue?

I used something like this

to translate midi into DMX from isadora to a lighting system
it was cheaper than LANbox I think

Yes -- it's in the plan. But it requires getting data from the LanBox, which I need to set up.

Anyway... it's coming, but I can't give a firm estimate of time.

Best,
Mark

 I have posted a video on my You Tube location showing a demo of the lanbox in use with Isadora software. showing motion control of lights, video projector as a follow spot, and vocal control of lights. The video clip is titled 'VIDEMOTE' . Looking forward to Mark adding the ability for Isadora to have the Lanbox information talk back to the software. Noticed a significant issue when jumping scenes in Isadora. The lights did not turn off despite having zero settings in the next scene, I think because since in DMX language 'zero' is a number that does not truly represent the same thing as 'turn off light'' and because the Lanbox needs to receive a new number when entering a scene that has zero settings for lights that had levels in the previous scene. I was able to use an enter scene trigger for the specific lights I was using to get around this, but with as many as 80 to 150 lights in a show, it would be best of the DMX actor automatically could understand a scene change and refresh the Lanbox somehow.

Anyway, its fantastic and very exciting. I am interested in hearing from any other Lanbox/Isadora explorers and happy to share more detailed information.
