Hi all.
Need some advice. I have a gig in a small venue. Setup there is 14 movers, 2 strobes, 10 led wash.
Venue desk is a Pearl tiger expert. I have a Titan one as well running from bootcamp on a Mac. I don't need fast fingers for the show so I can get away with slow changes between playbacks easy. My question is the setup is pretty much a full universe and I will need to have Titan running for 10 hours (5 hours light programming then 2 hour show plus 3 hour club). Can it do it or will it crash? I can always switch the dmx to tiger but some busking is expected and I'm more comfortable with titan

It certainly shouldn't crash. I wouldn't consider 10hrs being particularly unusual or demanding.

However, you say the venue has a 'Pearl tiger expert'. There is no such console. If it is a 'Pearl Tiger' then it's going to be running Classic and, while it should be familiar, shows aren't compatible between it and Titan so there would potentially be extra programming and maybe other limitations depending on which Titan functions you need. But if it is a Pearl Expert then it is capable of running Titan (and should be) and therefore you have the option of transferring your show and using the console.

my last show ran 30 hours on my laptop and titan one, so you should be ok.

Sorry I meant pearl tiger but I was talking about the expert with a guy next to me.
I am aware of the tiger extra programming and I will have something ready.
So Titan is quite stable then?
