Issue In Patch - EOS

I just attempted to patch 32 LED fixtures into 8 channels on my EOS (1-4 at channel 601, 5-8 chan 602 etc).

I went into patch and typed 601-608 type Generic RGBA

The started patching patching with 601 Address 5/1+5 + 9 + 13

This created 4 additional parts for channel 601, made them dimmer and left part 1 as an RGBA with no address addigned.  

When I type 601 type RGBA it only modifies part 1, so now since I can't select multiple parts of a channel I need to go through and manually change parts 2-5 to RGBA and delete Part 1. 

Is there some different way I should be going about this to make this quicker?

  • Bryan,

    It looks like you made the Channels RGBA's but then patched Dimmers into them.

    This is what works for me-

    Make addresses 5/1 thru 32 Type RGBA.

    Then patch by channel- [601 thru 608 @ 5/1]

    At least I think that's how it works for me.

    Hope it helps, B

    Opps, sorry.  Turns out that doesn't work.  It's confusing because that does work with my scrollers (one address per) but not the multi param toys.

    Try this instead:

    Patch by channel. [601 thru 608 Type Generic RGBA]  (just like you did before)

    Then with the same command line, add [ @ 5/1]

    If your addresses are all sequential, that will patch all 8 channels at once.

    If not, you can do them one at a time as long as you are patching by channel.

    I had to get used to this since I have always patched everything by Dimmer in the past.

    Good luck, B
