Led grow lights programmed to mimick lights of apc 40

Post by nite ryder » Tue Mar 04, 2014 8:02 pm

I am going to Hemp Fest in Seattle to set up a booth for a new led grow light that uses intelligent lighting, meaning each diode can be programmed seperatiley what to do and when to come on. I would like to sync it with my apc 40 or launchpad, so while I am playing mixes at our booth the led grow lights could mimic my midi controller lights. Any ideas?
I have my apc 40 in the control surface under the miki sync in preferences, but its not showing op in the input and output tabs. How do i get it to show up there. I have all the drivers for the apc 40 and its all connected. Any ideas?

m4l is built-in to Live...that's the easy part...

however, you'll need to set up dimmers/switches that interface and respond to MIDI/DMX/OSC control signals...

would have loved to assist on this project.. ;)

You could grow a lot of basil under this:

It's a 20' diameter, 10' high, flat-packable dome, consisting of 560 led clusters and a custom 8.1 surround system, driven exclusively by generative programming in max, and dsp in m4l/live.

The physical structure was up in Brooklyn for a few warehouse events (Unicorn Meat productions) while I was workshopping it, but now the completed, audiovisual installation is up at the Pittsburgh Center for there Arts, through April 20.

I just ran into an old face from the board the other day, and I thought I might as well see if there's anyone else in the area that might be interested in it and not heard about it yet. Other than that, some of you might find the technology interesting.
