Paid Sequence Lady Gaga - Born This Way

Born This Way by Lady Gaga

Sequenced on a standardized 2D layout so you can spend your time on the show instead of on mapping.

Why it's easy to map

• Only 40 targets: all 1,764 effects sit on 21 groups and 19 props.
• Start with the groups: they hold 60% of the effects, so a few mappings cover a lot of the song.
• Uniform layout: props are laid out flat in 2D, evenly spaced in clear rows, so it's easy to see what each one does.
• Standard names: every prop is named type first, then position, like Tree_Mega, Mezmerizer_Left or Candy_Cane_01. Numbers run left to right as seen in the layout.
• Grouped by type: trees, stars, roof, verticals, canes and ground spikes each have their own groups, with left/right and row splits.
• Labeled map included: one image names every prop and lists all 40 targets.
• Skip what you don't have: no match for a prop? Leave that target unmapped.

Layout

• 104 props, 17,532 RGB nodes, 35 groups
• 4 pixel trees (700 to 2,000 nodes) with 4 stars
• 3 spiral trees (675 nodes each)
• 2 Mezmerizer wheels (1,117 nodes each)
• 5 singing bulbs (170 nodes each)
• 10 candy canes (100 nodes each)
• 10 ft verticals (10 drops, 1,200 nodes)
• 36 4 ft verticals (24 nodes each)
• 4 ground spike rows (350 nodes each)
• Roof outline, arches and 12 slopes (2,145 nodes)
• Icicles (400 nodes)
• 8 rings and 6 floods (single node)

What you get
The .xsq sequence, the 2D layout with every prop and group, 3 shaders, the mega tree face images, setup notes and the labeled layout map.

Good to know

• The song is not included. Use the album version, which runs 4:20.
• There is no .fseq, so render after mapping.
• Group effects depend on where your props sit, so they may look a little different on your layout.
• Built in xLights 2026.19 at 40 fps. Includes singing faces on the bulbs and mega tree.
