Controlling lights with laptop and desktop

Post by janco1997 »

Hello,

I have a laptop and a desktop. On the laptop is the usb to dmx adapter. I want to control the live buttons by 2 people ( one on the laptop, one on the desktop). But i can't get it work fully 100%.
When i try to control it with only the laptop, it's fine. When i want to control it with the desktop, everything running fine. But when i start live on both computers, i get flashes because 1 computer say " that light on" and the other computer say " that light of". Why the scene buttons doesn't syncronise, even as the BPM, freeze etc. like in the "mobile live app" ?.

I hope someone could help me with fixing this problem.

Greets,

Janco

Live can be only on one computer.
As second device to operate Live, you have to use an Android/Ios device.

Try to use a 2nd buttons window, and for me, the best way to get two people controlling its using touchscreens ;)
