Night 1 at Midwest DJs Live: Setup + Opening Party

Midwest DJs Live Opening Party Setup

We kicked off Midwest DJs Live as the official lighting sponsor with an epic opening party Sunday night! The main ballroom where the show was hosted is where the party was and we were tasked with lighting it up!

Here’s what we rolled in with:

  • 24x 360 Tubes hanging from the drop ceiling with scissor mounts
  • 8x 360 Tubes on our adjustable height stands
  • 8x Moving Heads (Splash Xs, BPM Spots, BPM Beams, Aura 1915s)
  • 40x IR-4 uplights around the room

That’s a total of 80 fixtures, all synced with just one DMX Transmit Pro — wirelessly. The lighting looked insane and ran smooth all night long.

Shoutout to Rick, Dave, and Loe for setting up the rig, and a huge shoutout to our CEO Marcellus for absolutely crushing the pre-planning with a killer design idea, perfect setup plans with exact locations and DMX addresses, and even a 3D rendering of the main ballroom to help us set everything up while he was still back in Greensboro doing a wedding.

The photo of our setup is above, and the 3D renderings Marcellus made are below!

🏫 Day 2 & 3: Education and Our Lighting Seminar

Lighting Seminar at Midwest DJs Live

Monday and Tuesday were packed with education, networking, and gear demos.

Our very own Marcellus Doe hosted a seminar on Making Lighting Easy — showing how even complex setups can be made foolproof with the right tools and planning.

Tons of DJs came by the booth to check out our fixtures in person, and the response was incredible. The IR-4s and BPM Spots got a ton of love!

We’ll have highlight clips of the presentation available soon. Let us know if you want to watch the full 45-minute presentation!

Here’s one of the Reels we put together from our first 2 days at the conference! Shoutout to Loe for filming the entire week — she’s cooking up some great content! Click the photo below to watch the video:
