Having a this level of control over the video images used in a show is highly efficient and attractive for many reasons. First of all, the execution of the video cues used to transition between each number, as well as the video clips used as backgrounds during the performances, are executed virtually the same night after night since the lighting cues are being triggered by SMPTE (barring any unforeseen issues with timecode, the console, the DMX switch or the Doremi drive).
