Hey Frank, I have been using the LCM in this exact way since July of this year. I started out using Cakewalk 9.0 so I would have the least amount of strain on my old laptop. Now I am using both Sonar and Cubase SX to test which I like better. I intend to incorporate video, and hopefully run tracks I am running of ADAT off the laptop eventually. As Fokko said, it is dead simple to use the box once all the scenes are programmed, you simply choose the list you want to use, and I think I use controller 86 to pick each step. It is a pain to go through and set up but works perfectly from then on. I have never, ever had a problem that was the fault of the Lanbox. One suggestion, create a test cue that steps through your lights one by one to make sure everything is hooked up correctly. We would start with an intro, and the lights were supposed to kick in on the down beat, but if our roadie connected a cable incorrectly, it was still just blackness!! One other off subject thing. Try and split your lights between two circuits not releated to stage power. Clubs, small theatres, they all can have bad power. We have played at the nicest theatres with huge problems, and the smallest holes in the wall with none. The worst thing in the world is to have a par flood that blows the power in the middle of the song. Make sure you have a crew guy who knows exactly where the breakers are too! Chris
