http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?TabID=...=42499&doy=17m9 i have been using an older version of the above for about 5 years (cost £350 back then) i find the numarks very robust and reliable also excellent sound quality. there is also a version with a built in mixer for £250 i dont think you can go wrong at those prices !!

oh dear how embarrasing yes it was the polarity switch. i did try it the first time i connected the lights but as i seemed to get light i thought i had it set correctly.so then ruled it out as causing the problem oh well you live and learn hey. just programming in some scenes now it seems very tedious and would be alot easier if the manual was a little more helpfull they assume you already know all about dmx it seems! i doubt that the majority of people who buy "bottom end" controllers like this one are likely to be that expereienced. another question though.... is

Hi guys i am fairly new to the mobile disco scene and have been building up my kit as a hobby for some time now. So far my light show only consists of 4 scatscans(linked) and a source celebration. I would very much like to be able to use a dmx controller or my pc with all the lights.

I have all the dm
