Presets Dynamics

Dear All,

Here is the situation...

I am using 1 Dyn. effect playback ( Smooth) for my spots or my washes. I record preset 1 by using this effect playback assigned to my spots and the L.D. says to me that she wants the same exactly effect for the washes too. So I select my washes assign them to this Dyn. Effect playback  then update the preset and the washes now playback the effect but spots stoped. Is there anyway of copying dyn effect playbacks to another Dyn. effect playback or I have to create a new group with all the washes and spots so that I can assign it to my effect playback?

  • Hi there -

    You have two (or three) choices -

    1) You can use ALIGN to copy settings from one Effect Playback to another, just like you can copy parameter settings from one device to another. Select both effect playbacks, use NEXT to highlight the source playback, then use ALIGN & U1 (and/or U2, U3) to align those parameters from the highlighted playback to the other(s) - you can of course align as many as you have selected. Then select the new playback and assign your wash group to it. This way you can control the aspects of the spot and wash effects seperately.

    2) You can make a group that contains both the spots and the washes and use a single effect playback.

    3) If the distribution of your spots and washes group doesn't seem to work quite right, you can build a channel set where you can manually set which channels work with which in a very fixed distribution.

    I hope this helps!

    Thanks -
