### 4/5 — Actualicen YA

*2024-03-04*

Es muy buena opción para eventos pequeños y manejo de Leds por favor actualicen

### 1/5 — Seems useless

*2020-05-25, version 1.6.2*

Trying to get to grips with this software. Have followed the manual to the letter but no way will it save any fixture settings. Reading the FB comments it looks like this is no longer supported by the creators. A great shame as it looked really useful.

### 1/5 — Uh oh!.

*2019-03-15, version 1.6.2*

Paid a LOT, of money, specifically for use of this app. Bought an iPad mini, $300, just to use this app, an ehrgeiz dmx lighting controller, from Thomann.de, a further $300, all the dmx leads for my lights, dmx terminator etc. Only to find out, that even though it does have, the advertised full 512 channels to mix with, the software is faulty!, and unable, to save its own settings!. It saves your data, but with random errors, that appear for no reason. Slider positions, for the lighting channels?, save all out of whack, in a different way every time, you save your scene, sliders all set correctly, and some sliders, mysteriously save at value zero, ?, why?. It happens totally at random, and once saved, stays that setting every time, unless you re-program that scene, then pow, it’s set loads of other sliders to zero instead. 
This is a night mare on stage!, trying to figure out what lighting sliders, it’s randomly set to zero on me this time, every time. Trying to find and save a mess I can live with, and keeping those wrong settings, rather than it saving my exact slider settings, like its supposed to. 
I went back to using my old cheap lighting desk, it saves my settings properly at least. Massive design flaw!, hugely inaccurate scene save feature, unreliable in live use. Sort it out ehrgeiz.

### 4/5 — Pt effects not working

*2016-04-25*

So I am using the new effects engine and I cannot get the pan and tilt effects to work. And since there is no user manual on how to use the effects engine I'm kinda at a loss. It looks to be straight forward but it's not. I'm either missing something or it doesn't work.
