Sequence - You're A Mean One Mr Grinch - Darius Rucker

Store sequences may be available in the following formats (depending on the song):

• Traditional Layout – Ready To Go: This sequence layout has 68 AC channels and 32 dumb pixels (like 10W floods). No effects for smart pixel props or singing faces are included. The sequence is encrypted so no changes can be made (no props can be added), and you cannot see or modify any sequence effects. 
  
• Traditional Layout – You Can Modify: This version of our 68 AC channel and 32 dumb pixel layout can be modified so that you can modify or duplicate the effects to fill up to 240 AC controllers for your customized layout. You can add in your own smart pixel props and effects to this version of our sequence, but no effects for smart pixel props or singing faces are included. Purchasing a You Can Modify sequences allow you to see how the experts create effects.

• RGBPlus Layout – You Can Modify: This version of the sequence contains sequencing effects for nearly 7000 smart pixels (84 smart pixel props). 68 AC channels and 16 of the dumb pixel floods have been added to this layout, but effects have been altered from the Traditional Layout to account for the inclusion of smart RGB props. Singing Face sequencing is also included in this layout. The RGBPlus version is only available in modifiable format so that you can make edits or transfer the sequencing effects to your own preview with ease. Depending on the song, RGBPlus may be available in the Christmas Layout, Halloween Layout, or a discounted Combo ("C+H") Package.

• Singing Face Standalone - You Can Modify: This 'addon sequence' includes effects for Light-O-Rama V1 4-Mouth Trees and current V2 10-Mouth Trees, or V2 10-Mouth Pumpkins. Combo Packages ("C+H") have both the files for Trees and Pumpkins included (for applicable songs). Singing Face Standalone Sequences do NOT require the purchase of any other Light-O-Rama sequence for use. All RGBPlus sequences contain effects for the respective set of faces for the holiday layout. RTG and YCM Sequences in the Traditional Layout do NOT contain effects for any singing faces. You may manually copy the sequencing effects from a Singing Face Standalone Sequences into your own display, or into a purchased YCM sequence for the same song. Singing Face Standalone Sequences may NOT be used with a protected Traditional Layout RTG sequence.

Standalone Singing Face Sequence

If you have previously purchased a Singing Face Motion Pak for use with V1 LOR Singing Faces with 4 mouth movements (discontinued), there is no reason for you to purchase a Standalone Singing Face Sequence. There is no discount credit applied if you purchase a Singing Face Standalone sequence then purchase an RGBPlus sequence at a later time.

For sequences with both a Christmas and Halloween RGBPlus layout option available, both the Trees and Pumpkins are included in your singing face standalone purchase, indicated by "C+H." A Pumpkin only sequence will have an "H," and Trees only will have no additional letter.

If you previously purchased a Singing Tree SFSA sequence and a combo pack with pumpkins is made available after your purchase, please contact the help desk with your order number to upgrade to the Combo version for free. This offer does not apply to previously purchase Motion Paks (discontinued Oct. 2022)

Refund Policy

Refunds are not available for any sequences once they have been downloaded to your computer since they are digital files. (Our system shows us if you've downloaded a sequence or not from your purchase.) If you mistakenly ordered a sequence and have NOT downloaded the file, please contact the helpdesk IMMEDIATELY and include your order number for information about a refund.

This sequence purchase does NOT include a music file.

Light-O-Rama is great at making the lights dance but the required music is not part of the sequence or the sequence price. We suggest purchasing this music through Amazon (or the alternative link provided on the first tab) so it is licensed to you for use.  The duration of the music must be the length we specify.  Any other music version might cause the effects in this sequence not to be in time with the music. 

The music files you purchase must be downloaded to your computer. The Sequencer cannot access cloud-based files stored only in Amazon Music. If you do not download music files immediately after purchase, visit the 'Amazon Cloud Player.' Find the appropriate music for your sequence (the music you just purchased), drag it to the download section of the screen (typically on the right side of the Amazon Cloud Player window) and wait until the file is transferred to your computer. After this is complete, you can run the installer program that came with your sequence purchase. 

What if Amazon removed the music? From time to time, Amazon removes the ability to purchase the music we've recommended to go with our sequence. If this happens, please send a message to our help desk to let us know.

Amazon.com not available in your country? Locate the music in your country and purchase the file. Make sure the music is the same duration as we require for this sequence.  Download the music file to your computer.  Now install this newly purchased Light-O-Rama sequence.  The Light-O-Rama installation program will find the downloaded music associated with the new sequence and link everything together if the music file is the same length.

Commercial Entities: If you charge for entry to see your show, you will need an extra form of music licensing, such as from BMI, ASCAP, SESAC, etc. Your finance department should have more information about which music you are licensed to use already, or be able to fill out the application for a new license if needed.
