Hello everyone,
My band and I want to spice things up a little bit so we decided to get two fog machines (Stairville AF-180 LED Fogger Co2 FX DMX). The plan is to run QLC+ on a Raspi (I already own a Raspi 3) and trigger the shots by midi. There is already a midi track running that controls my amp, so I guess I just add the commands for QLC+ on another midi channel, right?
Since I've never gotten in touch with DMX or light in general I'm fairly new to this topic, so I just wanna know if this is achievable?
We would like to change the colour of the LED rings and start/stop the fog, nothing more.
Has someone done something similar and could give me his .qxw file so I can look how things are done? Would be great!
Do you have any tipps for this project?
cheers
Gerrit

Hey Gerrit - welcome to the forum!
The software is documented very well: http://www.qlcplus.org/docs/index.html
Also, the video tutorials are very helpful: http://www.qlcplus.org/tutorials.html
You should learn everything you need with this two links - otherwise ask some more precise questions and we will help!
