Ive commented on The Home Depots Facebook wall... I have heard from others that some are having issues with the contest... If you get a chance, maybe you could add to my comment on their wall?
It's sequenced using a computer program called Light-O-Rama, which is networked through 120v controllers via cat5e cables. Basically I have to take a song and slow it down to 1/4 time and tell each light exactly when to turn on and off for each song. The network has DMX capabilities, but there's no automation aside from the scheduled show start times.
Thanks @
