Crazy Keystoning

Thanks for the replies, good information in there!

I like the idea of having a mix per object, but I'm wondering... is it possible to reroute layers to different mixes via dmx? We have our entire show mapped out in layers, but those layers serve different functions over the course of the show.

Looking at the ground plans, we have 22 different setups for all those boxes.

We do have a pro server, so we have access to all the features. I'm on my way up to the theater now so I can play with it again. Thanks for the help!

yes it is possible to reroute the mix via dmx.

the enormous advantage of running the mix per object is that once its setup - you can run any movie or layer on the mix, shift its position, and scale it in and out- and its all perspectively correct.

Ok, so I figured out how to patch the mix layer select and mix shape... where can I find a DMX chart for those? The manual in catalyst only has the dmx charts for layers.

I've figured out how to assign mixes to outputs, so I've set it up so that three mixes are on the left screen and three are on the right screen. Thats where I need the most keystone control... I've left the center screen without any mixes besides mix 2 (output 2 runs all this) so I think I should be able to use run some layers there like normal.

Maybe I'll know when I see a dmx chart, but can I also change where mixes are assigned? I most likely can get along with only three mixes per side projector, but I'd like to know if it possible just in case they throw something even more crazy at me.

Thanks!
