I'll soon have a Chauvet Obey 40 and wanted to program it without having to hook up all the lights. Does anyone know if there are any programs that will allow me to visualize my lights/settings on a computer? I'm assuming first I'd need a DMX to USB input converter (or will a USB to DMX work as well?). Thanks.

Visualizers do exist, but they all cost an absolute fortune.
Except for Capture Polar Student Edition (http://www.capturesweden.com/Default.aspx?tabid=113) which is a limited but free visualizer.
Yes, you need to have a supported DMX interface to get the DMX from your desk into the PC.
