    Default 3rd attempt at computer fire

    I fired my 3rd computer fired show at our last MoPyro shoot and had Kevin13 helping with the set up. The show has 156 cues (which is just about max) 3 stations spread over 150' wide. There was one cake that blew up and another that didn't fire. With each show I keep on learning and I think that's what's keeping me so intrested in fireworks. When I purchased this system I thought I would be getting in over my head but so far I have taken it slow and learned quite a bit. Again I need to thank Nepyro for helping me with the software and answering some of those bonehead questions. By the way I went went a halloween theme:

    First song - Ghostbusters
    Second - Canyman theme song
    Last song - Thriller

    Product List:

    Mines - CA,Grand Patriot
    Comets - Dancing Comet
    Fountains - Color Mania ( Thanks Joe for that find)
    Cakes
    Anger Managment
    Speed Racer
    Dancing with Devils
    Comin@U
    Thrillseeker
    Assimalation

    I tried overlaying the soundtrack with the video in moviemaker. There's an echo so the regular video is located in my gallery.

    Awesome Show! Great choice of effects and very nice set up. I'll echo what RPS said...great opening part to that song.

    Nicely done!
    I loved the timing you had at the 4:00 mark when the song says, " You hear the door slam", and 2 salutes went off at that instant.

    Hey Scott, which cake was the horsetails near the end? I've been looking around for something like that in class C for awhile now.

    By the way, on a scale of 1-10 how happy with your ATF system would you say you are?

    Thanks,
    Chris

    That was Waterfall by Glorious. It is available from Glitter Mountain and Patriotic.
    I'm partial to Standard's Brocade Horsetails and Color Horsetails. Both are available from ATF.
