I used vixen a bit different then most people would, I made a show (Haunted House) inside my garage consisting of 3 major Animatronics 1.Zombie in a box, 2.Radio Prop 3.The Last Minute Drop Prop. I made a custom Plug and play Light Box and a simple parallel port relay controller channels 1-4 were dedicated to lighting channels, 5-8 were dedicated to f/x and prop activation. Each prop had its own program installed in each of them using the Efx-tek prop-1 RC-4 etc... Here is a video of the seance room, I will post video of the finished product / walk through in the near future (I have to get all the footage from friends and family)! We had a line that wrapped around the corner this year, and won first prize in the community haunt decor contest! Special thanks to Efx-tek For making this possible, without their products And support the Animatronics I came up with would not be possible.
