creating a template with different RGB channels in one fixture

Hi there -

You can. It requires you to Insert parameters to the Parameter Definitions list (Browser>Patching>Settings and Tools), usually in the form of Red2, Green2, Blue2, Red3, and so on, and then place them into the Color category. Make sure to insert new parameters at the END of this list. Then those parameters can be assigned within the template editor just like any other.

Please note that the color and gel pickers will only have an effect on the parameters labeled "Red", "Green" and "Blue" though.

I hope this helps -

Thanks -

Other tought: creating groups of parameters only.

That will also be an answer of this problem.

But the problem is a real thing.

Just think about it.

But when you have 24 fixtures of this kind , you don't want to program this on the way you sugest.

Hi Raf -

You are correct. We typically do not control fixtures of this type using multiple color parameters. We recommend that each cell of the bar be patched as a channel on its own, perhaps with a master channel containing the master intensity/strobe/other parameter. In this way it becomes more like a media server with multiple layers. Then to control the whole fixture (all cells) simultaneously, you could just make a group.

Not ideal, I know, however it's the best solution at the moment.

Thanks much!
