EOS/ION effect

 

Hi all,

 

I'm still learning our ETC EOS/ION board.  I have a silk swath lit with Chauvet color palettes on channels 49-54.  I need to make the palettes cycle reasonably rapidly through colors I select.  Can someone instruct me?  Send me a macro or saved cue file that will do this?

  • Yes, that makes sense.

     

    Okay, so let's say I want to do this:

     

    Effect 1 is

    1 = all color palettes at red for 5 seconds

    2 = one color palette at blue for 5 seconds (the rest stay at red)

    3 = all color palettes at purple for 5 seconds...

     

    And I want this to loop infinitely during Cue 29.

     

    Thanks for all your help on this.

  • Just a bit of clarification: a palate is a palate, as to what channels go to that palate is relative.

    If I understand you correctly, you want all all channels (49-54) to go to red for 5 sec then have one channel (let's call it 49) go blue for 5 sec, and then all channels go purple for 5 sec. if that is the case, I would make 2 effects:

    absolute effect 1:

    action 1 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "red" 

    action 2 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "red" 

    action 3 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "purple" 

    these should be applied to channels 50-54: 

     

    absolute effect 2:

    action 1 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "red" 

     

    action 2 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "blue" 

     

    action 3 "'time 0" "dwell 5" Level "purple" 

    Once you have written these FX go live and input:

    [5] [0] [thru] [5] [4] [effect] [1] [enter]

     

     

    [4] [9] [effect] [2] [enter]
    then
    [update] [cue] [2] [9] [enter]
    -M

  • I forgot to add, make the "grouping" of FX 1 "1" so they all move at the same time.

    -M
