New to the DL series

Hi -

I am looking into purchasing a used DL1 for an upcoming production.

I understand that the DL1 does not contain any media server capabilities, but is more of a projector on a moving yoke. I'm specifically interested in projecting a masked video of a characters face, with keystone correction, onto a set piece.

Is the Catalyst software still available, to drive the DL1? What about driving the DL1 from QLab?

Any pointers, suggestions, or advice would be much appreciated!! :1zhelp:

    The DL-1 will take an S-Video, RGBHV or VGA signal.
    Keystone correction will need to be done by your media input source.
    You only get Zoom, Focus, Pan, Tilt and Intensity control over the DL-1.
    The only image functions you get are Projector Orientation (X Front, X Rear, Y Front, Y Rear) and swithcing between RGBHV or S-video input.
    HES no longer sells the Catalyst software.
    Not sure about QLab as I have never used it.

    If you are going to use a Hog to control the DL-1 the fixture library is located in the uncommon library. So you will need to merge the fixture library into the show.
