Hi everyone I throw a large pary every year and do a great deal of static props. I now think it time to move on to animated ones. I have read coutless threads on VSA and DMX so I have a base understanding. My first of many questions is what program should I get and where can I get it? In the end I plan on haveing many props doing many differnat things over a large area. By large area I mean 4 acres. I know tons of wires in my future. Thanks for your help.

shrmndlit,

Just to clarify/reiterate... you wouldn't need a USB-to-DMX interface for each prop, but you might need some DMX devices (dimmer box, prop control boards, etc) per scene. As I understand it, DMeXorcist allows you to use one DMX line for several independently running scenes (each can start at a different time, or even at the same time, as another scene).
