So, I was wondering, how versatile are laser systems in what they can do? What are the limitations? I know people use computers and software to program in effects to use in shows, but is there any way to control the system directly? And if not, would it be possible?
The idea comes from my want to be able to control a light/laser system with my finger tips and be able to put on a show that expresses what's happening in the music, without the need to fully pre-program and know what music the DJ is going to play. I know there's sound activated controllers, but obviously, they don't cut it.
Would it be possible to create a set up where you could have the system recognise things like BPM, and then have a controller (I don't know, switches, chaos pad, I really have no idea on the technology that would be used) in which you could interperate the music and pull off a kick ass show (much like a light form, of the way a musician would use an instrument to create music).
