This is the first time I have ever heard of mic cables having the potential to fry a chip. Just that they can be more prone to interference.

Some microphone cables tie the signal return and shield drain wire differently than the twisted pair return within a DMX cable. This may introduce a potential grounding problem in your system. Grounding problems can fry electronics. Our example is extreme but meant to highlight the potential problems when using a microphone cable. Proper installations will keep your equipment running at their best performance.

We wouldn't recommend using microphone cables for your lighting fixtures. The microphone cable is designed for audio frequencies (low frequencies) and is a low impedance, high capacitance cable. DMX data cable is designed for a wide bandwidth high frequency data stream, it is a higher impedance and low capacitance cable.

Hey Chris, I am going to have 18 lights setup in a daisy chain. Will the signal degrade or do I need a DMX splitter?

hey! quick question! If you connect a light set up on a building and you program the par cans and all the lights do the dmx addresses get reseted if the power in the building goes off??

I have to use a terminator in the DMX splitter or only at the end of the chain?

Ok so you CAN string completely different types of fixtures to a single controller? So I could run a laser into a par can into a flower pattern into a fog machine? Because NOBODY ever brings this up.

Man in 2 days I have learned soooo much thanks to you and LearnLizard. Now I just feel silly for asking my initial question. I feel way more confident about DMX controlling. THANK YOU!
