Subject: Re: Don't buy Martin!
Not to feed the troll, but just to keep the public record clear:

This sort of 'review' is almost always caused by someone who lacks a basic
knowledge of light consoles and control, is unable to read or comprehend the
manual, and calls up the manufacturer expecting them to teach them from
scratch.

"I have a maxxyz. How do I program it to make the lights do what I want?"

Not gonna get an answer from tech support. That's a user application
question, not a technical support question.
