Re: Reke 500RGB
Thanks. That makes sense. I owe you a big +1 for all the info in this thread.

Re: Reke 500RGB
Heh thanks
I am _STILL_ fighting with my DAC... If you get it be prepared for a long painful battle...
Hopefully something I will have learned will help you out...
So far I have had A LOT of issues with pins... (wrong place, loose, bent, etc) You probably won't have that trouble...

Re: Reke 500RGB
Guys, I FINALLY got my DAC working... Check out the OP I added 3 new ILDA videos and a review of the ILDA functions of this unit.
Gary is a great guy, I am sure if you have any issues with your VM he will help you out.

Re: Reke 500RGB
Who, were did you get this show from? A laser show running a slow cheap projector - YouTube
I didn't see that one on the FTP...

Re: Reke 500RGB
It's totally on the FTP...
It's got a stupid name... It's a wicked awesome show and should be named properly...
You can find it in the "LA-frames" directory where all the other ILDA files are stored.
I think you need a 30k projector to run it decently... I had mine cranked to 20k to get a stable enough picture to video which is why most of the square boxes are oval
Anyway yeah go download it now and watch it, it's impressive.
EDIT: that Enya song is like PERFECT for it methinks.

Whoa, I skipped right over that one because of the stupid name, amazing show. Which Enya song did you use? Caribbean Blue?

Re: Reke 500RGB
I don't know why he wouldn't have named it something decent... I think it's the coolest file on the whole FTP server as far as I can tell.
I used Enya - Flora's Secret as the BGM... It seems slow paced and nature-y the way the show is..
EDIT: those two songs are very similar eh? I can't wait till I have some free time to actually play with this puppy now that I got it working!

Re: Reke 500RGB
Wow, that song completely suits the show, I need to finish up my projector, it's currently lying in pieces on my table Spaghetti interface probably doesn't do this show justice.

Re: Reke 500RGB
Wow dude yeah get to it! *CRACKWHIP* I wanna do a scratch build but I'm already in over my wallet at the moment
And yes the interface view doesn't do it justice... Even on my crap projector it's 200 times better than looking at it on a PC screen.
I can't imagine seeing it IRL on a real analog 30+ scanner projector I'd probably be doing this -> :drool:

Re: Reke 500RGB
Yeah, make sure you have a large chunk of change set aside before doing a scratch build, I jumped into this (foolishly) thinking it would cost me under 1000$... So far it's cost me 1600$ and I haven't even bought the red laser yet (probably another 800$ :eg

Re: Reke 500RGB
Holy crappers! I was under the impression it would take like $900-$1500 for a build... Yikes..
Gotta be a super fancy unit for that kinda coin though...

Re: Reke 500RGB
Well, I did go the more expensive route with the galvo's DT-30's instead of the PT's (everyone on PL told me PT's break to easily)
Lasers are a 300mW 532nm Analog, and a Prism corrected DIY 445nm.
But that price was also with DAC and software, which you already have, so 900$-1500$ is very realistic.
Also, i'm making a lot of costly mistakes since this is my first projector, but you will have the advantage of having a projector to look at for reference.

Re: Reke 500RGB
Probably not going to invest another grand... I'm already in it for about 500 bucks which I don't figure is too bad considering where I'm actually at now...
Wow 300 mW of green... That's gunna be a bright Mofo... I think mine comes in around 400 or so actual total output and it's pretty free kin bright...

Ok I must be dense because I can't find that directory on the PL ftp site.

Re: Reke 500RGB
Ok how the hell I missed that I dunno. I swear I looked in every directory there. Watching it in Spaghetti it looks like it'd make a helluva beam show too. Really tempted to crack this thing open and see if you can somehow put better galvos in it because for me half a watt is great for in home use although I'd like to up the red a bit.
Those vids look good. I got a reply from Adam last night and PP'd him earlier today. He said he had one all ready to ship so hopefully he can get it mailed off tomorrow I may get it by Saturday which would be great. I know he's busy so I'm not going to hold my breath.
Oh well I need to replace a zombie diode in one build and try to figure out how I'm going to power three of my four gas lasers and display them along with 8 other lasers to finally get my rainbow pictures so I'll have plenty to do this weekend if it doesn't arrive.
