Programming a specific effect

We are running an ion and have 10 rayzor q7's. We are having a curved truss bully and are going to mount them on that in a semi circle shape. How can I build an effect where they all stay at a central point on the stage and move it over the audience. I am afraid if I build a simple pan/tilt they would end up crossing and I don't want that. I think they are going to have to pan and tilt at the same time.

We will have 5 on each side of center. If I want to strobe from the center out, would that just be a simple chase? Just have an on/off attribute on each fixture?

  • regarding the effect of moving from the central point out into the audience: make an absolute effect with two steps. as levels for those two steps use a focus palette each. one for the starting point and one for the end point. if you're lucky, depending on their mounting positions and angles it works without crossing. if it doesn't you would need to do use an absolute effect with more steps and amek focus palettes of inbetween steps.

    for the strobe: make an absolute effect with two steps. in the level column you enter 100 and Bkgrd (Bkgrd should already be the seconds step, if not type At Enter). you will want to change the steo timing, but that should do what you want.
