Effect Question

Hi Patch,

What I would've done is make sure that my "record attribute mode" is "Changed" so it doesn't restart the effect when going to the next preset.

Make your fixtures white for the next preset and give the preset a time.

Then make a next preset in red again but let it follow from the previous one with the desired follow time.

You will need to apply "21 dyn effect" to those fixtures to stop the effect then.

Do you need step by step instructions?

Regards,

Chenn

Just record the next step with White, and a step after that back to Red.

Then use a Wait time to automatically chain them together.

It does not matter which Attribute Record Mode you are using, so stick to the one you prefer.

If the Dynamic Effect Playback for the circling stays above 1% for any reason (even HTP from a Master), it will play continuously.

Old-style Dynamics stay running until the 'base' value changes (unless "Keep Running Dynamics" is ticked) or the Stop dyn effect is played.
I strongly recommend using Effect Playbacks in all new shows simply because it's so much easier to start & stop them.

Hi Chen

if you could that would be great?

Erm, what's to write out?

1. GOTO the step where they are circling in Red
2. Make them White
3. [Record] [Record]
4. Make them Red again
5. [Record]
6. In the "Times" tab of the Record dialog, set "Wait" to 1 second
7. [Record]

That's it. Nothing special, just do it and it works.

- I'm assuming you're using a Dynamic Effect Playback to make them circle.
If you're not, use this as an opportunity to learn them. It makes everything much simpler.
