How about the ability to control the output volume of each individual song played.  I don't have sound editing software and I would like all my music choices to play with the same amplitude. Some of my songs are louder than others and I want to avoid distorting my loud ones because I have to turn up the master volume for the quieter ones.

Right, but I enjoy how simple just doing "shimmer here" is. It's not really that important, just thought that it would be nice to be able to set the speed as well as the intencity and time.
Fine. You're so smart you rig up the lights.

Pony, each D-Light board can have its very own specific shimmer speed. That can be limiting but it does reduce the amount of command data sent to each controller. 

You could create your own "shimmer" by using very small time intervals with a ramp up, ON, ramp down, OFF sequence. Copy/Paste a few dozen times. 

Putting a shimmer command in any controller software channel needs to be viewed on each individual controller to see if it looks the way you HOPE it looks.

So the D-Light H/W Utility must send a special command to set it?

Pony_God,
 
At this time both the D-Light extended protocol and the LOR protocol do not support specifying a speed within the shimmer/twinkle command (the D-Light extended protocol only supports a single bit to select normal or random and the LOR protocol doesn't even have that option).  These must be set board-wide in the hardware utility.

EXACTLY!
There's a "random" speed for both of these, but not a "set as X" option.

Pony

I'm pretty sure  you can change your shimmer and twinkle speeds in D-light H/W utility.  Although that sets the controller so you cant change that within the Aurora Sequence.

Edit....Clarify, you wont be able to change the speed during the sequence

Alright, how about an easier one? Any pointers for Bing Crosby - Mele Kalikimaka?

Vocals are a lead part so you may need to use a high noise gate/expander setting to pull them out.  As I recall though, the Christmas Cannon vocals are barely 3dB above the strings in the TSO Cannon and share the same notes, so it might not be easy to pull off with that particular song.
