(There are also several threads here on PL that discuss the FB3 and the new Quickshow software.)įinally, I should remind you that if you are indeed in the US, then your laser shows fall under federal regulations set forth by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health, or CDRH for short. It's cheaper than the cost of Mamba Black + an Easylase controller, and the Flashback 3 (or FB3 for short) comes with some very nice software, including the new Quickshow 2.0 software, which is ideal for DJ work. (I currently use the LD-2000 system from Pangolin.)Īnother controller you may want to consider is the Flashback 3 from Pangolin. (There may be a few other controllers that will work as well I'm not familiar with the current list of supported controllers.) I still have an older copy of Mamba Black, and while I don't use it much these days, it's still nice to have. I don't think the I-show controller will work with Mamba Black, so you'd need to purchase the EasyLase USB controller or the Ryia multi-bus controller to use Mamba Black. Mamba Black is very capable software, but you will still need a controller to use with it. If you are increasing the size of the scan field and the image starts to distort, you are pushing the scanners too hard. The wider you scan, the harder the scanners have to work. Watch out that you don't try to scan too wide. Most chinese scanners that are rated for 20K speeds are actually only capable of around 15K speeds. They will fail if you continue to overdrive them like that. The tails and scribbles you speak of are characteristic of a set of scanners that are being driven too fast or too wide. If you are only running 20K scanners, then you need to reduce those numbers by 1/3. Your goal should be no more than 800 to 1000 points. If you omit the bottom line of text, it's possible to do the top part only, but even so, it may flicker a bit unless you use a stick font (single line).Īs a general rule, if you are scanning at 30K speeds and your image has more than 1200 points, it's too complex. The logo you posted is far too complex to scan with current scanners, even if they're running at 30Kpps. Analog is preferred, since it allows for greater color mixing, giving you lots of extra colors to choose from when designing your artwork.

When you lift the pen to move to another place on the paper, that's like turning the laser off (blanking) so the scanners can move to a new location before you start drawing again.)īlanking can either be TTL (on-off only) or analog, which gives you variable brightness (like a light dimmer). (Think about drawing a picture on a piece of paper. If you fill out your profile information, it will make it easier for people who are close to you to offer their assistance.īlanking refers to the process of turning the laser on and off so that patterns can be drawn that are not a continuous line. If so, there are several PL members near you who could offer assistance. Where are you located? A quick Google-search seems to suggest that you are in the US, possibly in Oregon. Will this figure out all of the point needed to make the image display correct?

I have have seen suggestions for the ILD SOS software to convert vector files to the ild format.

I would not mind buying some inexpensive software but i may only make a hand full of these and do not require the pro level design software.

I have see others just asking to get their art made in to a ild file which would be great but I would like any suggestions on maybe some good how to's or small tutorial's i can follow to get better. ild's that came with it i see many points that are black probably to assist in the path the laser takes between objects. I made it (looked great when ishow previewed it) but when i send it to the laser the faster the Kpps the more sloppy and scribbly it gets, at a very slow speed it looks much better but it obviously flashes a lot and still has several ghost tracks between the letters. I am trying to make a basic logo for our trade show booth. As with the china lasers i am using ishow which i am not married to by any means.

I have searched tons and what i think i am missing is mainly the terminology. It is spiffy and works well for our application and I am now wanting to design and make my own logos and frames for it. I run a DJ company and recently upgraded from the basic one effect lasers to a RGB ILDA unit (ebay type SDcard+ILDA port 280mw RGB).
