What is your ideal lighting system?

A bit of a poll, really, I guess. What do you think the ideal lighting system would be for any of the following three situations?

Low budget/smaller venue
mid budget/mid size venue
and high budget/large venue? Mix and match as you please...

good question m8. im not sure what they're called, but id have several of those lasers that make that 'liquid sky' effect...kick ass! and some of the higher priced intelligent lighting & efx hooked up to a fackin huge controller!

you should check some vid's of large dutch parties, they have a very big lightning system!! (check the vid "johan gielen live at trance energy" from the music vid's, and you know what i mean). or even better, go to one of those parties. btw, in that vid with johan gielen they don't use the 5 lasers that were also there :(, but that scannerwall still kicks ass.

yes indeed, that scannerwall make me cream my pants...

cause besides being a dj, i'm also a lighting enthusiast as well :)

so don't get me started on lighting... but i'd have to go with martin products all the way and lasers that priduce the liquid sky effect

Ok, so we have the high end covered, since most of that stuff costs >$1000. How about for lower budgets? Are there good resources for cheap lights?
