CK/CQ Color Force profile . . .

I need a profile for the Color Kinetics Color Force LED Cyc fixture . . . is there a way I can write my own (or copy and edit an existing one) . .

it is a RGBA 72" LED fixture .. the one I have came to me without a manual (and with a Color Blast Label) I'm hoping the rest of the shipment is correctly labeled and includes the manuals . . . so I don't really know how many parameters it is capable of dealing with (the default is 4)

  • Someone correct me if I am wrong. But I don't think you can truly control each cell independently with the current Stock profiles for the ColorForce.

    I have an ION and 5 of the ColorForce 72 units and I have found to control them easily and apply effects easily they need to be used in mode 1 with a custom FX profile and a custom profile for each cell's HSI (13 ION channels per unit) This takes up more 'channels' on your ION, but better utilizes the 43 DMX channels per fixture. Using the stock profiles for these ColorForce units in a waste of DMX channels in my opinion, then you might as well just save the DMX channels and use one of the 3 or 4 ch operating modes.

    Has anyone had success using the stock profiles and had custom control of all cells without jumping through hoops?

  • That's the detail Tracy meant above.

    If you use the 'stock' ColorForce 72 fixtures, then Ion merges all the colour attributes together to give you a unified colour picker.

    You're often better off patching this kind of 'multi-cell' fixture as Ion Desk-Channel-Per-Cell using the stock RGBA/HSI or appropriate fixture template.
