Technobeam LCD Controller and Trackspots

[quote=futureg]I used to use these controllers a lot and used analoge switching through a lighting console coupled with audio control. Although it may be longwinded on the programming front, I.e. make scene then copy and past to next mem and change, copy past etc etc you will get looks that, if coupled with audio, have a completely different feel to tadays "hit and miss" easy to compile stack synth creations. one tip would be to make your positions exagerated. That way the audio clip will have a natural in sync smooth flow that is difficult to achieve with "Modern Technology" Audio dimmer control is beautiful if subtlety is your goal.
P.S I dont think there is any strobe control to touch the dedicated 24 channel Af 1000 controller (depending on your chip ste)

I understand what you are saying, because I did this for years. To get the same feel on a more modern console, just program chases and don't use on-board FX generators.
