I know there will be several different views on the best way for me to proceed, but I want to open this up for discussion. I have quite a few sequences that were done over the past 6 years using Vixen 2.1 for my Renard based show.
Two years ago I added a couple of Pixel props to my show, a Pixel Mega Tree and Pixel Candy Canes, which I brute forced into my existing sequences. They worked fine, but did not allow me to take full advantage of the potential of these props. This year I am adding even more Pixel based props.
I have looked at and played with HLS (not my cup of tea), V3, and XLights. I have been leaning towards XLights, but I am having a real issue with importing my existing sequences into the system. I do not want to lose the work I have put into my existing sequences, rather I just want to agument what I already have, and then do some new sequences from scratch.
What in your opinion is the best of the new software to use with older Vixen 2.1 sequences, and what is involved with importing the old sequence? Any help and guidance you may have will be greatly appreciated.
