enough to get me going and know whats going on.....
the hard part is spending the money on a decent usb->dmx512 converter....

my experience with lighting is limited, but are you gonna have a physical device with knobs / sliders and shit that connects via dmx/usb converted to your linux box? is it much cheaper compared to the proprietary systems or what?
sounds interesting

nope...
no faders (sliders and knobs).....
instead ill write scenes via software on the computer...
this way, i can write scenes from home and not have to deal with old and crappy boards around town....
it makes my life wayyyy easier....
