Musical Christmas Controllers
Since we began carrying the Outdoor Musical Christmas Controller it has slowly become the most popular Christmas light controller we have ever carried. It makes sense that this controller would become so popular; it's easy to use, plays classic Christmas music, and will last many seasons with proper care.
Our musical controller has 6 outlets, each outlet will let you plug approximately 12 sets of standard mini lights (not all end to end, but off a extension cord). The controller has 20 songs.

The operation of this controller is simple, on the top there the main control panel. On this main panel you can turn on/off the unit, switch the different light show modes, control the song volume, choose what type of songs you want, and have a button to skip songs. The light show modes are interesting, these 3 different settings give you different lighting effects. The first is a steady on, pretty simple, no flashing, no music sync, just a steady on. The second mode is a flashing mode, this makes all the flash to the beat of the music, usually focusing on the main melody of a song the lights will flash along to that main melody. The third mode is by far the best show you can get out of this box, the different outlets all represent a different instrument or section of the song that's playing. So lets say a song has a simple drum beat, some lights will flash to just that beat, a main rhythm sound will have its own light, and the melody will have its own, and so on and so on.
