Finally got all my new lights in. This is from last Saturday.

I'm really impressed with the Hyper Gems. What a light for just $129! I'm a DJ - not a light guy - and have everything running in sound active master-slave. These Hyper Gems do a great job on their own of pulsing with the beat and somehow changing patterns when they sense a change in the music. It's pretty amazing!

The Chauvet Tridents mounted on the speaker cabs are pretty cool too, but they don't sync with the beat and just run though a fairly short preset show. But I can't complain for a light that only costs $89. I've got them sync'ed too.

All in all I'm really happy with my new lights. The whole setup cost me $694. I've been meaning to do this for a long time, but recent price reductions got me moving.

My Trident is sound active, your's should be too.

Looks pretty good, but why no wash lighting?

Personally, I'm not a fan of LED matrix style lighting.

The Tridents are sound active, but just do the same thing no matter what the music does. I'm thinking about adding some LED strips but don't want to light things up too much. I'm mostly DJ'ing for young adults under 25 and they want things as dark as possible.
