Hey guys,

I am a total noob to laser and lights. What I need is one good all around laser that has different options like scanning. I also need one good movable lighting head that has different colors, possilbly strobe as well(if that even exsists) haha. That I can control with any major software program on the market like sunlite or martin. Thank you for your time!

What is your budget?

While you don't need licensing for lasers in Canada that I know of, you still need training so you know how to properly use it without being a liability to yourself and those around you.

The lowest possible without buying cheap gear. I don't really know what realistic budget would be. I need the light and lazer to showcase a midi controller. So the focus won't be on the lighting gear itself but on the ability of the midi control to control them.

You become a liability to yourself and others when you don't know how to properly use this equipment. Moreso when you become arrogant thinking "It'll be fine. I know what I'm doing" when it's quite obvious you don't have a clue.
