Hi, Possibly very a stupid thread, but I had some questions about pre-programming for (what seems to be) a fairly complicated show. 1. Is it possible to have 2 consoles connected together? The idea is to have one as the master, and the second as the back-up. That way if one fails, the other one can ...

Having said that, the Expert design is getting pretty old now, you might find you get a better Titan experience in the long run upgrading to a Tiger Touch II or an Arena. They have the screen and the button layout that make a lot more sense with the latest software. I subscribe to your suggestion, ...

I have a couple of questions -
1. Is it possible to get a replacement keyboard (and trackpad) for a Pearl Expert - running the Titan 9.1 OS?
2. Is it possible to have a hardware upgrade done to the Classic Pearl Expert in order to take it to the Pro upgrade, and support Titan 10.1?

I have a major problem with what goes on when updating the fixture library on the Pearl Expert console (or any other titan software for that matter). Why does the installer programme have to delete the older personality files? Can the programme not update only the new ones, without wiping pre-existi...

The console I use is a Pearl Expert.

I was using the onPC version of the magicq software - which runs on all their consoles.

Though Chamsys does not have a personality builder, you can edit personalities in the console and create new fixtures out of that.

I came across a very cool feature in the chamsys edit head function, where I can make the colour - RGB, etc as HTP channel instead of the default LTP. This was very useful when wanting a slow fade from say RED to GREEN going through ambers, and yellows, etc. Would something similar be possible in th...

I created the bootable USB stick (Transcend 4.3 GB) with all the necessary files using the v9.0 recovery creator. But the console does not boot from the USB stick. USB was the first boot option and HDD was the second one in BIOS. I disabled second boot option, and I got the message that BOOT DISK FA...

Thanks for the work-around Nic. I had already thought of that as a solution, but the problem lies in the fact that the Technical Director (or anybody working) in the theatre does not know the console well enough to do something like this. There is also the fact that there are only a handful of peopl...

A theatre in Bangalore (India) recently upgraded it's lighting system and got in a Pearl Expert Pro. I went in to run a show, but faced a problem of switching from System to Run to Program on it as it does not have a key any more. I figured how to get into the SYSTEM mode, and also found the place w...

To update my previous post in the same threat - I managed to upgrade to v7.5 on my laptop and got the temporary licence for the software/hardware. But when I do a clean install on my friend's Laptop, I am still getting the same message of "Please make sure you have inserted an Avolites Titan do...

I have a show which was originally programmed on the Pearl Expert v6.1. I then transferred to a friend's Titan Mobile (also on v6.1) and the show went very well. Now I have tweaked the show on the Expert (v7.4) and wanted to transfer it to the Titan Mobile. Obviously I have to upgrade the the softwa...

About a year ago I had posted this onto the forum "Is there a possibility to run a show programmed for Pearl Expert (v 6.0) through a simulator? I am travelling with the show and it is impossible to take the console with me. I know that GrandMA supports this, where the console can be made into ...

I just updated the Pearl Expert we have to 7.2, but when I go to the system mode, I get the message saying License days remaining 226.

Why is that happening? Is there any way that I can solve it?

I have a cue list, where a block of 24 cues is repeated 5 times. Is there some way where I can just copy the same block, instead of creating the same cues over and over?
It is just a pain to do the same set of cues again and again. I am using a Pearl Expert console.
