Laserworld Showeditor 2015
Version 2015/1.0 2015 Page 12
does not provide any support for Showeditor installations on non-native Microsoft
Windows systems.
The more DACs are controlled from one computer, the more “power” is required.
“Comfortable Working”:
The laser output is calculated in real time. Dependent upon load of the computer it
could happen, that animations will show short stops or will hang up. Therefore we
recommend a better equipped system than the above described minimal
requirements.
To run a laser show with 4 independent projectors and DMX as well as video output
via video projector and sound you should have at least an Intel Core Duo with 2 GHz
CPU, 2 GB RAM, and a fast hard drive. A separate graphics board also makes sense
(better than on-board graphics).
Laserworld Showeditor can control up to 16 output cards simultaneously. It is possible
to even control more laser systems individually by configuring the output matrix
appropriately.
The following show setups have been tested with good results:
16 ShowNET interfaces, each connected to an RGB projector.
