If your venue doesn't have an integrated dashboard or automation system like Ross Dashboard, the Light Show can be operated manually from a laptop. Your production director or designated operator simply needs to have the CUE admin panel open and click the play button at the same moment your video or audio content begins. This requires a brief coordination‚ typically a countdown over headset like 'three, two, one, start'‚ between the person triggering your video board content and the person clicking the Light Show start button. The key is ensuring both actions happen simultaneously so the flashlight effects sync with your audio track. Many teams successfully run Light Shows this way without any advanced integration.
