Description Max The Singing Pumpkin This package includes the coro for the Singing Character, 200 pixels, a configured Pixie2 Controller, and two 5ft extensions. Customers assemble the lights into the coro after purchase following the printed diagram on the back of the face with supplemental printed instructions. FRAME NOT INCLUDED See DIY Frame Build Option Here Dimensions (for optional frame building): 42"h by 39"w Read more about set up instructions for your face by clicking here. Each singing face character is controlled by an outdoor rated, weatherproof Pixie2 controller with built-in power supply. Just connect the Pixie2 to your existing standard Light-O-Rama data network with a Cat5, tweak your musical sequences to add in these talking/singing characters (or buy our pre-made sequences) and you’re good to go. These characters can be controlled using a standard PC set up (with a USB485 adapter) or with any of our Showtime Directors. If you are using these Singing Faces with any sequences purchased from our sequence store, they should be connected to your “Regular” computer network or “Net 1” Showtime Director network. If you already own a Singing Tree and would like to purchase this Pumpkin without the Pixie2 controller, please contact our helpdesk for assistance with a custom order. Controller changes are required. Note: Software is not included. We recommend that you purchase the Generic Starter Package to receive the software at a discount if you don't already have a license. The Advanced Version of the Light-O-Rama Software Suite is required to use Standalone singing face sequences from our store. The Pro Version of the Light-O-Rama Software Suite is required to use RGBPlus sequences (which include effects for singing faces). Mouth Movements Four different singing pumpkin characters are available for you to use altogether as a set or mix and match as you see fit. (Jack, Gourdy, Max and Munchkin). Each singing face is on a sheet of outdoor rated, UV stabilized, black plastic that is 42 inches tall by 39 inches wide. A singing character has fourteen or fifteen circuits of RGB control: body outline, stem, two eye movements, ten mouth movements, and nose/eyebrows depending on the pumpkin. character outline stem on top eyes closed eyes open mouth closed mouth E (half open) mouth A or I (full open) mouth O or U mouth Ah mouth M, B or P mouth F or V mouth L mouth W or Q mouth etc. RGB pixels are used in our singing faces so a section can be any color, making it useful when expressing moods during a song. The lips might change colors or the eyes could flash from orange to purple when appropriate. When sent with a singing face, our Pixie2 controllers are configured to make each of the above sections act like dumb RGB pixels. This way, adding a singing face to your network only takes up “14 dumb pixels” instead of the full “200 smart pixels” actually used to create this face. This makes sequencing easier for you and saves you network space at the same time. You do not need to do anything special to your controller for this to happen – it has already been done for you at our warehouse. Do NOT reset your controller without instruction from the Light-O-Rama Help Desk. Modes Personality Mode - Default Singing Face controllers are shipped already configured for personality mode. Using the Hardware Utility, two ports of the Pixie controller have been assigned to the respective character. It is important to connect the ports to the right character as pixel placement is different for each character - they are not interchangeable. Firmware settings allow personality mode to treat a singing character as 14 pixels on your network instead of the full 200 pixel nodes used. (14 sections - 10 Mouth, 2 Eyes, Outline, Topper) The personality of a singing face can be changed or removed by using a computer with Light-O-Rama software installed. Scan for the controller in the Hardware Utility, choose Config for your Pixie, and open the Advanced settings to find the dropdown. Custom Mode A custom model of V2 singing characters can be used if personality mode is disabled in the Hardware Utility. A custom model will use the full 200 pixels of data on your network instead of 14. Use a custom model to use your Pixie in Double Unit ID mode (firmware v1.11+ required), use an Aurora Core or Aurora Edge, or to use Motion Effects on any section of your character instead of solid colors. Custom models will NOT work automatically with Light-O-Rama store sequences (which use personality mode configured effects), and will not transfer with tags. Copy and paste is required to use effects from Store Sequences. Click the character name below to download the .lpeprop file to import into your preview.
