as usual, everything worked ok during rehearsals but completely went to hell during the actual performance. I could really use some help, we have one more performance tomorrow night of this show and I'd like it to not be an utter catastrophe
here's the setup:
3 wiimotes
osculator 2.10.2
macbook pro, osx 10.6
max/msp 5
the problem: persistent disconnection. it's unpredictable; we can always get all of the them to connect, but they may disconnect suddenly after 2 minutes or after 20. because of the nature of the performance it's not easy to do a reconnection (the wiimotes are integrated into the dancers' costumes).
range should be ok, we've tested it extensively. batteries are fresh. in the end the inability to maintain connection meant cutting the wiimotes out of the piece in the middle of the evening and faking it from the sound booth.
any suggestions on how to troubleshoot would be much appreciated.
thanks!
