Artist 3

Artist can be downloaded and installed free of charge. The free software license will expire  after 30 days if not registered with ShowCAD Control Systems. See Help/About.. or the Status window to see the license state. See Registration for how to register.

This is the third generation of our flag ship show control software. It can coexist with Artist 2 and Artist Compact without conflict.

Please review Requirements before installing.

Upgrading

For the most part loading Artist version 2 workspaces will convert to the new format. There is the possibility that DMX , MIDI and Digital interface may not be connected after conversion. This is easily resolved by connecting the appropriate interface in Resources/Input Output Patch.

Always Check help

Context sensitive help can be viewed by pressing F1 when a dialog or frame window has the focus. First time users should open the help upon running Artist, and work their way through the Getting Started section which contains useful guides on programming. Articles are continually being written to support the many complex features of Artist. Click here to see the on-line help topics.

The new items in the Artist Help are indicated by a red asterisk on the navigation tree.
