I want to add 2 or 4 LED Scanners but really not sure which way to go. I was looking at the Chauvet Intimidator 200's and 100's. Is there a preference here to scanners in 2012? Budget is less than $1K (U.S.). I would also like to add a nice laser effect but this may be in the future. (looking at ADJ Royal Sky)

Current Lighting:

1 - ADJ Revo 4
2 - ADJ Micro Galaxian Laser
1 - Elation Light Co-Pilot III
2 - ADJ Mega Bar 50RGB
2 - ADJ Aggressor Tri LED
Chauvet Hurricane 1300 Fog Machine
Chauvet Obey 40

I really want to add some DMX lights to this setup as right now only the MegaBars and Revo are the only DMX lights I have. Thanks in advance.

Start out with 2, either Chauvet or ADJ are great for mobile applications. See how you like them. Add more if you feel you want them. I have 2 ADJ X-Scans and they work great. I have a 15' truss and two work great with all my lights (check out the link https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?v=3165005006568). So really you just have to see for yourself.

And on a side note try out Freestyler DMX Program (IT'S FREE!!!). Fairly simple to use and SBDJ has some great plug-ins for it that work with VDJ!
 
which USB to DMX interface are you using?

I use the Enttec Pro. Its about $158 or so on EBay. DJ Cheers has a few tutorials on Youtube on how to hook up Freestyler, network, and use cue point to activite your lights in VDJ.
 
I use the Revo 3 & 4 for my mobile gig. I have two of each. They really light up a full gym. Lots of compliments.
 
i use the

Fusion Fx Bar 3 In 1

and smoke machine
 
I decided on the Chauvet Intimidator Spot 150 LED. I purchased two of these today. I think these with my existing lighting will suffice for now. I spent a long time at GC watching different scanners and moving heads. I really like these lights and plan on adding a few more after these are paid for. Will post some pics soon.

THanks for all the input.

Sorry for the confusion. Here is the right video. The other video got whacked by copyright....

 
@DJLo50 please refrain from using the quote button, there is absolutely no need to quote a previous post everytime you wish to add to a thread, most of us are intelligent enough to work out who you are talking to or about.
 
Sorry Maybe I should read the post.

BTW: Hope you are feeling better Tayla!!!
