Hi- wondering if anybody has tried the ETC Colorsource 20 or 40 that has oriented itself to control LEDs? Getting tired of using older boards where 4-7 channels are used up with each SkyPanel when all I need 90% of the time is intensity and CCT.

Alan,

I don't know much about the Colorsource products, but if you change the DMX protocol version on the SkyPanel to version 3.4 - you can use DMX mode 2 and this only take 3 channels (intensity, CCT, and G/M). This might solve you channel limitation issue.

You can also try our new app Stellar where you channel count doesn't really matter any more.

Hope this helps.
