So I finally really got my hands into Programming DL2's.....

All I can say is what a great instrument. As soon as i got used to navigating around everything, it became really easy. Preloaded content seemed endless. And all of the content was easy to pull up from the Hog. Also the onboard camera is a really cool feature. We were doing a christmas party with Motley Crue and Poison. They performed great. The college generator worked perfectly. It took me a little time to play with it and get everything lined up, but once i did it was sweet. My only two complaints is i wish the DL2's were brighter, and i wish it had something better than just S-Video. Also if they had a 5 wire out to link up to a video switcher so i can show the content on the projectors that we had on the sides of the stage it would have been really sweet.

Great product guys!

    Hey tim,
    For Axon, you need 1 Axon per projector,
    There is only 1 output per axon.
    Although, if you used some sort of splitter, for the 2 on the outside, you could use a single axon.
    So for that project, you would need 3 axons, and a RGBHV Splitter.
    If you want the 2 on either side of the stage to have different content however, you would need 4 axons. (Probably the best option for flexibility in setup)
    For the most part, axon does do the same stuff that catalyst does, and in some cases it does more, some cases less.
    That being said, a catalyst server or 2 seems to be a better option for this,
    You could edgeblend the center screen with a dual head to go out of 1 output, and use another dual head to go on the other one to get 2 more outputs.
    Now, you would need a very good Catalyst server to do this, I would recommend at the very least an quad core Mac Pro, with the ATI 1900xt video card.
    and at the very least a SCSI hard drive for content, although a SSD (Solid State Drive) would be much better.

    Let us know if you have any more questions,
