ola_pilot

---

A simple desk supporting fixtures using [ola](https://www.openlighting.org/ola/) to handle DMX hardware.

All output is via. TCP to ola's RPC port (localhost:9010) using protobufs and asyncio.

Whilst I like QLC+, I was motivated by finding it very difficult to achieve certain things - like map a MIDI CC to a hue, and drive this to fixtures of multiple types (RGB, RGBA, RGBW) together. With moving heads it was difficult to shape the parameters of animation on the fly.

* Optional CLI using [textual](https://github.com/Textualize/textual).

* Midi support uses [rtmidi](https://github.com/SpotlightKid/python-rtmidi).

* Art-NEt support uses [aioartnet](https://github.com/TeaEngineering/aioartnet)

Running

----

    $ olad -l 3

Use OLA admin http://localhost:9090/ola.html to attach a universe to a dongle or 'Dummy Device', then

    $ python -m venv venv

    $ . venv/bin/activate

    $ pip install -r requirements.txt

    $ python pilot.py
